Book excerpt: Before dinner tonight, you will see hundreds of emails, ads, tweets, and posts. Yet by tomorrow morning, so much of these will be forgotten. Except, that is, for the stories. The ability to find, shape, and share your own most essential stories-told one to one and one to many-is one of your greatest assets as a leader. The key is an understanding of the retellable story. While we all know how important communication and stories are, and know a good story when we hear one, we don't always know how to tell them. Retellable is a book about how you can find and tell yours. This book is an exploration into the center of what stories are, why they work, and how you can make them work for you. Written by story coach and storyteller Jay Golden, who has trained business leaders around the world on this topic at companies such as Facebook, Google, and LinkedIn. Retellable combines practical insights, actionable steps, anecdotes, and an easy-to-remember framework that will help you transform your audiences, your organization business, and your career, one story at a time.

Book excerpt: The acclaimed New York Times bestselling author shares vivid memories of her childhood and recalls the experiences that set her on the path to a writing life. Ever since she received Our Island Story by H. E. Marshall as a Christmas present in 1936, Antonia Fraser's deep love of history has been a constant in her remarkable life. The book made such an impression that it inspired her to write Mary, Queen of Scots thirty years later. Born into British aristocracy, the author's idyllic early childhood was interrupted by a wartime evacuation to North Oxford. The relocation had profound effects on her life, not the least of which was her education at a Catholic convent and her eventual conversion from the Protestant faith to Catholicism. Her memories of holidays spent at Dunsany Castle and Pakenham Hall, a stint as "Miss Tony" selling hats in a London department store, and her early days working in publishing are all told in her singular, irresistible voice. My History is a heartfelt memoir that is also a love letter to a British way of life that has all but disappeared. Anglophiles, history lovers, and Downton Abbey fans are sure to be enthralled.
