Image
  Today's publisher's pride is  RV Oopsies   by Larry MacDonald, which reached #125 on Amazon's bestseller list for travel humor. (This book has been in the Amazon top 100 several times.) Book Description: Every year thousands of RVers hit the road for fun and adventure, but RVing has built in misadventures-backing into a tree, bending a jack stand, and more-spoiling an otherwise perfect outing. For the past ten years, the author has asked RVers the same question: "What's the dumbest thing you've done while RVing?" Each year, he has given an award for the dumbest mishap. In this funny and helpful handbook, 101 of these mishaps come together so the reader can learn from other people's mistakes, saving them unnecessary grief and cash. - Always use a spotter when entering or departing a campsite. - Do a walk-around inspection before moving your rig. - Never flush out your blackwater tank after dressing for church. Practical and comical, this a great read

Publisher's Pride: Books on Bestseller Lists - A View through the Fog (McGee)

Image
Today's Publisher's Pride is  A View through the Fog  by Bob McGee , which reached #9 in bridge engineering. Book description: A View through the Fog  is compelling, poignant, and packed with both moving and hilarious anecdotes. All human life (and death) is here. With his own distinct voice, McGee opens the door on the dizzying world of the Golden Gate Bridge-the beauty of both nature and the bridge itself, the camaraderie and friction with colleagues, and the devastating tragedies of suicide jumpers. He brings an entire community to the page with a thought-provoking and richly detailed memoir that will resonate with many readers. The motive for his writing this book is love of his subject. He paints this world he knows in a way that gives readers the feeling they are on the Bridge with him. From review by Kevin Hines: "Read one of the most well written books of the past decade, maybe longer!  Much like the Golden Gate Bridge is an art deco masterpiece, Bob McGee's bo

Publisher's Pride: Books on Bestseller Lists - Since Sinai (Gonyou)

Image
  Today's Publisher's Pride is  Since Sinai  by Shannon Gonyou, which reached #54 in Jewish biographies. Book Description: Raised in a heavily Catholic suburb of Detroit, Michigan, Shannon grew up focusing on two things: how to do enough good deeds to get into heaven and how to stay pure enough to escape hell. In college, she followed many of her peers into an Evangelical church known for guitars, drum, religious-based shame, and the idea that without Jesus she was nothing. But when she encountered Judaism on that same campus, a spark ignited within her and refused to be put out. Judaism felt obvious, familiar. After a falling out with her biological mother and two miscarriages, she found the courage to send the most important email of her life: she asked the local Jews by Choice program to accept her as a student. Honest and unflinching, Shannon's story of coming home to Judaism encourages everyone-- Christian, atheist, Jewish, and anything in between-- to search relentles
