Kennedy and Killing Lincoln, page-turning works of nonfiction that have changed the way we read history.
Now the anchor of The O’Reilly Factor details the events leading up to the murder of the most influential

his teachings and believe he is God. Killing Jesus will take readers inside Jesus’s life, recounting the
seismic political and historical events that made his death inevitable – and changed the world forever.

SPEEDE, SHERI
In September 2008 Dorothy, a female chimp in her late forties, died of congestive heart failure at
Cameroon’s Sanaga-Yong Chimpanzee Rescue Center. A photo of Dorothy’s funeral, in which Dr. Sherri
Speede was cradling Dorothy’s head while her family of chimpanzees looked on, went viral after being
published in National Geographic. The image was subsequently covered in hundreds of media outlets on
television, in newspapers, and on blogs, deeply touching people around the world while showing once
and for all that animals do indeed have feelings.

THE KINGS COUNTY DISTILLERY GUIDE TO URBAN MOONSHINING
HASKELL, DAVID
A new generation of urban bootleggers is distilling whiskey at home, and cocktail enthusiasts have
embraced the nuances of brown liquors. Written by the founders of Kings County Distillery, New York
City’s first distillery since Prohibition, this illustrated book explores an age-old love affair with whiskey. It
begins with chapters on whiskey’s history and culture from 1640 to today, when the DIY trend and the
classic cocktail craze have conspired to make it the next big thing. For those thirsty for practical
information, the book next provides a detailed, easy-to-follow guide to safe home distilling, complete with
a list of supplies, step-by-step instructions, and helpful pictures, anecdotes, and tips. The final section
focuses on the contemporary whiskey scene, and an opinionated guide to building your own collection.
