<div>This beautifully illustrated volume celebrates the career of the legendary Yankee shortstop featuring iconic full-color images from The New York Times. After twenty major league seasons—all with the New York Yankees—Derek Jeter retired from the game at the conclusion of the 2014 campaign. The Yankees’ captain since 2003, the shortstop is considered the greatest Yankee of his generation. Jeter’s teams won five World Series, including three in a row in 1998, 1999, and 2000. The all-time postseason leader in hits, doubles, and triples, Jeter earned the nickname “Captain Clutch” for his game-changing performances during the Yankees’ championship era. Through stories and powerful images from the pages of the New York Times, Derek Jeter: Excellence and Elegance celebrates the career of this New York icon from Jeter’s debut in 1995 through his final game in 2014. This full-color pictorial keepsake also features an introduction by Tyler Kepner, the Times’ award-winning baseball reporter.</div>

<div>A stunning fifty-year visual history of LGBTQ pride marches, parades, and protests, taken from the New York Times photo archives. It began in New York City on June 28, 1969.   When police raided the Stonewall Inn—a bar in the Greenwich Village neighborhood, known as a safe haven for gay men—violent demonstrations and protests broke out in response. The Stonewall Riots, as they would come to be known, were the first spark in the wildfire that would become the LGBTQ rights revolution. Fifty years later, the LGBTQ community and its supporters continue to gather every June to commemorate this historic event.   Here, collected for the first time by The New York Times, is a powerful visual history of five decades of parades and protests of the LGBTQ rights movement. These photos, paired with descriptions of major events from each decade as well as selected reporting from The Times, showcase the victories, setbacks, and ongoing struggles for the LGBTQ community. “To take in the breadth of [PRIDE’s] contents—to see the scope of LGBTQ+ rights, from the first Christopher Street Day march in 1970 to protests for transgender rights just last year—is to witness the power of visibility firsthand.” —them. “This book is a powerful visual history of five decades of parades and protests for equality. Educational and visually enriching, complete with photos from The New York Times, this book is the perfect companion for any coffee table.” —BookTrib</div>

<div>A photographic celebration of the women of the 116th—the most diverse Congress in American history.   The first woman Speaker of the House. The first female combat veteran. The first Native American women. The first Muslim women. The first openly gay member of the Senate. These are just some of the remarkable firsts represented by the women of the 116th Congress, the most diverse and inclusive in American history.   Just over a century ago, Jeannette Rankin of Montana was the first and only woman in the House of Representatives. By the time of the 116th Congress, a total of 131 were seated in both chambers.  The 2018 midterm elections brought a seismic change—and this book, a collaboration between New York Times photo editors Beth Flynn and Marisa Schwartz Taylor and photographers Elizabeth D. Herman and Celeste Sloman—documents the women of the 116th Congress, photographed in the style of historical portrait paintings commonly seen in the halls of power to highlight the stark difference between how we’ve historically viewed governance and how it has evolved. Also featured are an illustrated timeline and list of firsts for women in Congress; “Her Vote, Her Voice” sections throughout that highlight historical moments in female politics; and an extended introduction and foreword by Roxane Gay. The Women of the 116th Congress is a testament to what representation in the United States looks like in the twenty-first century—and an inspiration for what it may look like in the years to come.</div>

The Women of the 116th Congress

<div>A stunning collection ofnew fiction previously published as The Decameron Project and originally commissioned by The New York Times Magazine as the COVID-19 pandemic firstspread acrossthe world, from twenty-nine authors including Margaret Atwood, Tommy Orange, Edwidge Danticat, Rachel Kushner, Colm T&oacute;ib&iacute;n, Charles Yu, and more. When reality is surreal, only fiction can make sense of it... In 1353, Giovanni &#8203;Boccaccio wrote The Decameron: one hundred nested tales told by a group of young men and women passing the time at a villa outside Florence while waiting out the gruesome Black Death, a plague that killed more than 25 million people. Some of the stories are silly, some are bawdy, some are like fables. In March 2020, the editors of The New York Times Magazine worked to create a collection of stories written just as the pandemic first swept the globe. How might new fiction from some of today&rsquo;s finest writers help us memorialize and understand the unimaginable? And what could be learned about how this crisis will affect the art of fiction? These Stories from Quarantine by twenty-nine authors vary widely in texture and tone. The work is a historical tribute to a moment unlike any other in our lifetimes, offering perspective and solace to the reader now and in the uncertain future. With stories from: Caitlin Roper &bull; Rivka Galchen &bull; Victor LaValle &bull; Mona Awad &bull; Kamila Shamsie &bull; Colm T&oacute;ib&iacute;n &bull; Liz Moore &bull; Tommy Orange &bull; Leila Slimani &bull; Margaret Atwood &bull; Yiyun Li &bull; Etgar Keret &bull; Andrew O&rsquo;Hagan &bull; Rachel Kushner &bull; T&eacute;a Obreht &bull; Alejandro Zambra &bull; Dinaw Mengestu &bull; Karen Russell &bull; David Mitchell &bull; Charles Yu &bull; Paolo Giordano &bull; Mia Couto &bull; Uzodinma Iweala &bull; Rivers Solomon &bull; Laila Lalami &bull; Juli&aacute;n Fuks &bull; Dina Nayeri &bull; Matthew Baker &bull; Esi Edugyan &bull; John Wray &bull; Edwidge Danticat </div>
