Most of us know the legend of Secretariat, the tall, handsome chestnut racehorse whose string of honors runs long and rich: the only two-year-old ever to win Horse of the Year, in 1972; winner in 1973 of the Triple Crown, his times in all three races still unsurpassed; featured on the cover of" Time, Newsweek," and" Sports Illustrated;" the only horse listed on ESPN's top fifty athletes of the twentieth century (ahead of Mickey Mantle). His final race at Toronto's Woodbine Racetrack is a touchstone memory for horse lovers everywhere. Yet while Secretariat will be remembered forever, one man, Eddie "Shorty" Sweat, who was pivotal to the great horse's success, has been all but forgotten---until now.
In" The Horse God Built," bestselling equestrian writer Lawrence Scanlan has written a tribute to an exceptional man that is also a backroads journey to a corner of the racing world rarely visited. As a young black man growing up in South Carolina, Eddie Sweat struggled at several occupations before settling on the job he was born for---groom to North America's finest racehorses. As Secretariat's groom, loyal friend, and protector, Eddie understood the horse far better than anyone else. A wildly generous man who could read a horse with his eyes, he shared in little of the financial success or glamour of Secretariat's wins on the track, but won the heart of Big Red with his soft words and relentless devotion.
In Scanlan's rich narrative, we get a groom's-eye view of the racing world and the vantage of a man who spent every possible moment with the horse he loved, yet who often basked in the horse's glory from thesidelines. More than anything else," The Horse God Built "is a moving portrait of the powerful bond between human and horse.

Stetson: American Icon - Hardcover
$107.00
| /
by Laird Borrelli-Persson (Foreword by), Douglas Brinkley (Contribution by), Jay Fielden (Contribution by)
Celebrating the style and heritage of Stetson, one of America's oldest and most iconic brands, this beautiful book features the full range of its classic, handcrafted hats and the stylish ways cowboys and artists, movie stars and pop stars, jazz musicians and country singers have worn them over the years.
Nothing symbolizes the dream of the American West, from its rugged, dramatic landscapes to its cowboy culture, like Stetson. It was founded in 1865 by John B. Stetson, an explorer and adventurer who, during a long Western expedition, fashioned a hat with a high crown and a wide flat brim that could withstand the elements. It worked so well that he decided to mass-produce it. Renowned for its handmade, high-quality hats, Stetson soon came to represent quintessential American values: innovation, resilience, and trailblazing independence. This book celebrates the profound impact and influence of Stetson, and the cowboy aesthetic, on American culture. In sections including "Stetson in Song" and "Stetson on Screen," stunning photographs show a diverse range of musicians who lay claim to the Stetson as part of their image, from Gene Autry and Loretta Lynn to Bob Dylan and Willie Nelson to Beyoncé--and a who's who of American movie stars from Robert Redford and Clint Eastwood to Jane Fonda and John Travolta up through Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling in Barbie showing the many different ways to look good in a Stetson. A throughline of iconic style runs through the book, with images of such American icons as Georgia O'Keeffe, Patti Smith, and Lyndon Johnson depicting the timeless look of the Stetson. Heirloom objects, these hats are still handcrafted, and the book explores the couture-like way they're created, including the many ways they can be customized and individually shaped. With evocative archival imagery and glamorous advertisements tracing the history of the brand and highlighting key moments and trends in American history and culture along the way, and with essays by cultural historians contextualizing the significance of Stetson in American culture, this book is an exciting and stunning look at America's most important heritage brand.Author Biography

You with the Sad Eyes: A Memoir - Paperback

by Christina Applegate (Author)
"Funny, furious, and profane." --The New York Times
"Not your typical celebrity memoir." --Jimmy Kimmel Unflinchingly honest and darkly funny, You with the Sad Eyes unveils a side of Christina Applegate we've never seen, forever cementing her formidable and iconoclastic legacy. Christina Applegate came of age on sets and stages, expected to be on time, with lines learned, ready for lights-camera-action. What started as a financial necessity soon became an emotional escape from a tumultuous home life in the infamous Laurel Canyon scene of the 70s and 80s. She rocketed to stardom on the sitcom Married...with Children and went on to captivate audiences in classics like Don't Tell Mom the Babysitters Dead..., Anchorman, and Dead to Me in her five-decade long career. Then it all stopped. A Multiple Sclerosis diagnosis in 2021 confined her to a king-sized bed and the company of memories she'd rather forget: memories of the self-doubt and body dysmorphia that stalked her meteoric rise, of her mother's fight against addiction and abuse after her father left, and of the tax life had taken on her body and mind that was suddenly coming due.Now, at her most intimate and vulnerable, she unveils a story not even those closest to her fully know. She returns to the diaries she kept her whole life, finding the pain matched by joy, the losses mitigated by the extraordinary, and the weight of life lifted by her unrelenting belief that something greater lay ahead. No longer willing to lock herself away and with the perspective only our own mortality can bring, she knew it was imperative to tell it all.
You with the Sad Eyes presents a remarkable woman and her legacy. In her own words, "I truly believe that books can make people feel less alone. That's why I'm doing this. You with the Sad Eyes won't be some big violin scratching for my life. But it will be real. It will be filled with the ups and downs, the humor and grief of life. So here I am. Real me. Lots to say."Author Biography

Is she solely responsible for its success? And why, eight years later, at the height of Glossier mania, did she step down? In Glossy, journalist and author Marisa Meltzer combines in-depth interviews with former Glossier employees, investors, and Weiss herself to bring you inside the walls of this fascinating and secretive company. From fundraising to product launches and unconventional hiring practices, Meltzer exposes the inner workings of Glossier's culture, culminating in the story of Weiss herself.
