Tiffany is on a mission to empower women's voices by sharing her own deeply personal story of struggling to survive a turbulent celebrity marriage and finding the courage to take control of her life. They were a dream team. Superstar WWE wrestler Ric Flair was the flamboyant athlete and showman. Stunning, statuesque, and half his age, Tiffany VanDeMark was the determined and no-nonsense fitness coach who eventually became his wife. But while admirers saw a match made in heaven, the reality was more like one of Ric's matches in the wrestling ring-dramatic, violent, and scripted to ensure he would always gain the upper hand. This new memoir takes you behind the closed doors of their larger-than-life celebrity marriage to reveal the pain and heartache behind the media hype and lavish lifestyle of one of the WWE's greatest champions. Recounting both their darkest hours and interludes of happiness, Tiffany traces how her childhood traumas and those of adopted child Richard Morgan Fliehr inevitably drew them to each other-and ultimately proved their undoing. Tiffany's raw and honest narrative gives us a ringside seat through her ten-year journey from hard-nosed trainer to loving partner to battered survivor. She shares the intimate and inspiring story of walking back the abusive pattern to its origins in her childhood-inner work that gave her the faith and courage to end the cycle of abuse, reclaim her personal power and step out of the ring forever.

Once tainted by association with Hitler and Nazism, Richard Wagner's work has experienced an international cultural renaissance in the last 25 years. His magnum opus, Der Ring des Nibelungen, which took him over 20 years to finish, is a complex tale with themes of greed, corruption and loss, spun out in more than 16 hours of powerfully moving opera. This book, with provocative essays for both the uninitiated and the seasoned fan, examines Wagner's Ring cycle from a wide array of modern perspectives. Divided into six parts, this anthology first offers a foundation for the Ring, with a chronology and an introduction, along with a look at Wagner as an enterprising marketer. Part Two explores different interpretations of the Ring, with reference to politics, romanticism and international inspirations. Part Three studies the complex relationship between Wagner's Ring and Germany, with a summary of the opera's influence on German culture and a discussion of its Munich premiere. Part Four offers a production history, including studies of the Ring's effects in America and its influence on world literature. Part Five provides a technical examination of language in the Ring, as well as an interview with the famous Wagnerian soprano Jane Eaglen. The book concludes with an essay on the trouble with Wagnerian opera and an overview of the recorded Ring on disc, video and print.

War in the Ring presents a riveting nonfiction book for kids about a boxing match that represented the growing tensions between the United States and Nazi Germany in the lead up to World War II. Joe Louis was born on an Alabama cotton patch and raised in a Detroit ghetto. Max Schmeling grew up in poverty in Hamburg, Germany. For both boys, boxing was a path out and a ladder up. Little did they know that they would one day face each other in a pair of matches that would capture the world's attention. Joe grew into a symbol of inspiration to a nation of Black Americans hoping to carve a slice of the 'American Dream' in a racially fractured country. Max, on the other hand, became a Nazi symbol for the superiority of the Aryan race. The battles waged between Joe and Max still resonate, and the cultural implications of the international sensation continue to reverberate far past the ring.
