Whitey Bulger
A New York Times Bestseller
A #1 Boston Globe Bestseller
"This is the definitive story of Whitey Bulger. As much social documentary as riveting crime story, the book is a masterwork of reporting by Cullen and Murphy. I couldn't put it down." - Michael Connelly
"Riveting." - The Economist
Norman Mailer: A Double Life
The "glorious... sweeping, full-scale biography" of Norman Mailer: "There's not a paragraph in this enormous book that doesn't contain a nugget of something you...wish you had known" - The New York Times
Lennon "brings Mailer thoroughly alive in this great wallop of a book... and he captures the entirety of a man who embodies his era like no other" - The Washington Post
The Limit
In The Limit, Michael Cannell tells the enthralling story of Phil Hill - a lowly California mechanic who would become the first American-born driver to win the Grand Prix - and, on the fiftieth anniversary of his triumph, brings to life a vanished world of glamour, valor, and daring. - Amazon.com
Furious Cool: Richard Pryor and the World That Made Him
"Addictively readable...Someday, when fewer people know Richard Pryor's name, Furious Cool will be the best defense against the worst sort of forgetting -- the kind that involves who we are now, who we loved once, and why." - Esquire
"The flames of genius burn bright and all too often briefly. Incendiary, foulmouthed comic icon Richard Pryor changed the face of comedy and possessed, as biographers David and Joe Henry put it, a Furious Cool." - Vanity Fair
