In The Legend of Colton H. Bryant, Alexandra Fuller uses her trademark lyrical prose and sharp eye for human nature to chronicle Colton's journey into the dark heart of the modern energy boom. She captures the camaraderie of the rig workers, the beautiful wildness of the American West, and the cold reality of an industry that treats human lives as disposable resources. Part celebration of an untamable spirit and part fierce critique of corporate greed, this moving biography is a stunning tribute to an ordinary, extraordinary life. An excellent read for fans of literary non-fiction, compelling biographies, and deep human stories.

"The six wives of Henry VIII—Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anna of Cleves, Katherine Howard, and Catherine Parr—have become defined in a popular sense not so much by their lives as by the way these lives ended.  But, as Antonia Fraser conclusively proves, they were rich and feisty characters. They may have been victims of Henry's obsession with a male heir, but they were not willing victims.

The work collected here is drawn from lectures, essays and journalism. Ranging in tone from academic speculation to bare-knuckle polemic, with the occasional gleam of personal reminiscence, they interweave to form a vision of a decade in which the habits of centuries were hurled, by choice, into reverse. Defining the role of the writer in society was no longer an abstract theme to stir debate, but a pressing and dangerous necessity. The world of letters had to confront the urgent need to open up the franchise, hand over the levers and the engines of power: the need to reinvent an entire continent.
