NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The #1 New York Times bestselling author of World War Z is back with “the Bigfoot thriller you didn’t know you needed in your life, and one of the greatest horror novels I’ve ever read” (Blake Crouch, author of Dark Matter and Recursion).

FINALIST FOR THE LOCUS AWARD

As the ash and chaos from Mount Rainier’s eruption swirled and finally settled, the story of the Greenloop massacre has passed unnoticed, unexamined . . . until now. The journals of resident Kate Holland, recovered from the town’s bloody wreckage, capture a tale too harrowing—and too earth-shattering in its implications—to be forgotten. In these pages, Max Brooks brings Kate’s extraordinary account to light for the first time, faithfully reproducing her words alongside his own extensive investigations into the massacre and the legendary beasts behind it. Kate’s is a tale of unexpected strength and resilience, of humanity’s defiance in the face of a terrible predator’s gaze, and, inevitably, of savagery and death.

Yet it is also far more than that.

Because if what Kate Holland saw in those days is real, then we must accept the impossible. We must accept that the creature known as Bigfoot walks among us—and that it is a beast of terrible strength and ferocity.

Part survival narrative, part bloody horror tale, part scientific journey into the boundaries between truth and fiction, this is a Bigfoot story as only Max Brooks could chronicle it—and like none you’ve ever read before.

The American economy was once built on the bedrock of family farms and businesses. And though it seems as if history has moved on, there were men who said the family could--and should--be the center of production once again.

In Third Ways, Allan Carlson tells us little-known stories about the 19th-century economists, politicians, and activists (including G.K. Chesterton) who wanted the productive family back at the center of the modern economy. Carlson shows how the decline of the family-centric economy has contributed to the decline of marriage and healthy family life in America.

If you are dismayed by the rise of divorce, fatherlessness, consumerism, and statism, then this historical tour de force will encourage you with a vision of a different, better world.

The world has not always been this opposed to the family. Read this book to find out how it could be different.
