Albright, Madeleine PRAGUE WINTER: A Personal Story of Remembrance and War, 1937-1948 “[A]bsorbing… Showing villainy, heroism, and agonizing moral dilemmas, Albright’s vivid storytelling and measured analysis bring this tragic era to life.” - Publishers Weekly, starred review “No reader will close [Albright’s] memoir unmoved.” – Booklist, starred review “[T]he unconventional—the personal—animates and brightens [PRAGUE WINTER].” - Kirkus Reviews From one of the international community’s most respected and fascinating figures comes a deeply personal memoir and incisive work of historical analysis of twelve turbulent years in world history. Before she turned twelve, Madeleine Albright’s life was shaken by the Nazi invasion of her native Prague, the Battle of Britain, the attempted destruction of European Jewry, the allied victory in World War II, the rise of communism, and the onset of the Cold War. The experiences of a young Albright and her family provide a lens through which to view the most tumultuous dozen years in modern history. Drawing on her memory, her parents’ written reflections, interviews with contemporaries, and newly-available documents, she reveals a historical narrative that is by turns harrowing and inspiring. The years 1937-1948 witnessed the destruction of one world and its replacement by another. Albright reflects on the contemporary relevance of the moral choices confronted by statesmen and average citizens in this era, including those affecting members of her own family. PRAGUE WINTER takes readers from the Bohemian capital’s thousand-year-old castle to the bomb shelters of London, from the Terezin ghetto to the highest councils of European and American government. Often relying on eyewitness descriptions, Albright tells the stories of millions of ordinary citizens ripped from familiar surroundings and forced into new roles as exiles and soldiers, collaborators and resistance leaders, victims and killers. These events of enormous complexity are nevertheless shaped by concepts familiar to any growing child: fear, trust, adaptation, the search for identity, and the difference between right and wrong. Madeleine Albright is the author of the New York Times bestsellers MADAM SECRETARY, THE MIGHTY AND THE ALMIGHTY, MEMO TO THE PRESIDENT, and READ MY PINS. She was U.S. Secretary of State from 1997 to 2001. Her distinguished career of public service includes positions in the National Security Council and as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations. Harper

One of the founding members of The Allman Brothers Band, Gregg Allman will discuss for the first time the unflinching story of his life in music—from the Allman Brothers, to his solo career, to his string of failed marriages, the most publicized one to the entertainer Cher, to his struggles with drugs and alcohol, detailing his rocky path to becoming a member of classic rock royalty. From Gregg’s rough n’ tumble youth with his older brother Duane, to the formation of the band that would go on to change the sound of rock and roll, this music legend’s stories will be shared in the authentic and unforgettable voice of the man who lived them. From the beginning the Allman Brothers received nearly universal praise from fans and critics alike, and yet at almost every turn, the band’s success was met by tragedy. What began with Duane Allman’s tragic death in a motorcycle accident continued when, a year later, bassist Berry Oakley was also killed on a motorcycle. Allman will open up about his decades plagued by substance abuse, his illness with Hepatitis C, and his life-saving liver transplant in 2010. Allman has been making music for almost fifty years and during that time he has recorded some of the most iconic songs in American rock. Inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1995, Gregg Allman continues to make music as a solo artist and tour with the Allman Brothers Band. This year, Allman released his first solo effort in 14 years, Low Country Blues, which debuted on the Billboard Top 200 at number 5. William Morrow Publication: May 2012 (JS) Estimated length: 400 pages, with 70-80 color & b&w illustrations Galley available Bacharach, Burt *ANYONE WHO HAD A HEART One of the greatest songwriters of all time, Burt Bacharach finally shares his story. From his tumultuous marriages and the tragic loss of a child to his collaborations with Dionne Warwick and all the stories behind the songs that generation have come to love, Bacharach offers a frank, moving account of an unparalleled life. Over the course of his long and astonishing career, Bacharach has had seventy Top Forty hits, won three Academy Awards, eight Grammys (including the 2008 Lifetime Achievement Award), an Emmy, and been nominated for a Tony Award. He recently received the prestigious Library of Congress Gershwin Prize for Popular Song, an award previously won by Paul Simon, Stevie Wonder, and Paul McCartney. Bacharach's songs have been recorded by countless artists, Elvis Presley and The Beatles among them, but Dionne Warwick stands out with songs like Walk on By, Don’t Make Me Over, Say a Little Prayer, Reach Out for Me, and many more. At the beginning of his career, Bacharach toured the world for three years as the musical arranger and conductor for the legendary Marlene Dietrich. Bacharach has composed some of the most memorable film scores of all time; written music for the Broadway stage; produced a variety of artists of every generation in the studio, and continues to appear as a solo performer in concerts all over the world. Having written countless songs about the never ending search for love and the heartbreak that comes when it is lost, Bacharach's first three marriages to singer Paula Stewart, actress Angie Dickinson, and songwriter Carole Bayer Sager ended in divorce. His long running partnership with Hal David fell apart after they wrote the sound track for a movie that was such an artistic and commercial disaster that the two men wound up suing one another and did not speak for seventeen years. Bacharach's daughter Nikki committed suicide at the age of forty. Throughout it all, Bacharach has steadfastly continued to pursue his muse. As powerful and moving as Burt Bacharach's most unforgettable songs, ANYONE WHO HAD A HEART will provide readers with a backstage pass to a world of show business that no longer exists. It will also give them an up close and personal look at the life of an artist whose incredible body of work has earned him a unique position in the American cultural landscape while also providing the sound track for the lives of millions of devoted fans all over the world.

In a naval career spanning 40 years, Zumwalt rose to the top echelon of the US Navy during a period marked by the Soviet challenge to US supremacy on the high seas, a duplicitious end-game in Vietnam, the Watergate scandal and an Admirals’ spy ring. What set Zumwal apart from senior officers in the Navy was his ability to enact radical change. Zumwalt’s tenure as CNO (1970-1974) came at a time of great military crisis in the Cold War. Zumwalt’s fight to modernize a technologically obsolescent fleet pitted him against such formidable adversaries as Henry Kissinger and Hyman Rickover. By the time the dust settled, Zumwalt had created a more egalitarian Navy as well as a smaller and modernized fleet better prepared to cope with the burgeoning Soviet naval threat. Despite his achievements, Zumwalt was anguished by the unwitting role he played in his own son’s death from exposure to Agent Orange. After he retired in 1974, Zumwalt’s final battle was spearheading a successful class action suit against the manufactures of Agent Orange, earning him our nation’s highest civilan honor, the Presidential Medal of Freedom. When laid to rest in January 2000 at the U.S. Naval Academy, Admiral Zumwalt’s black granite tombstone contained one word: Reformer. Larry Berman is Founding Dean of the Honors College at Georgia State University and the author of Planning a Tragedy: The Americanization of the War in Vietnam (Norton, 1982), Lyndon Johnson’s War: The Road To Stalemate in Vietnam (Norton, 1989), No Peace, No Honor: Nixon, Kissinger and Betrayal in Vietnam (Free Press, 2001) and Perfect Spy: The Incredible Double Life of Pham Xuan An, Time Magazine Reporter and Vietnamese Communist Agent ( Smithsonian Books/Harper Collins 2007).
