Hardback. Zustand: Fair. A NEW YORKER BEST BOOK OF 2024  A fascinating first history of the Yuppie phenomenon, chronicling the roots, rise, triumph and (seeming) fall of the young urban professionals who radically altered American life between 1980 and 1987. "Entertaining and insightful." --Ben Mezrich, New York Times bestselling author of Bitcoin Billionaires By the time their obituary was being written in the late 1980s, Yuppies--the elite, uber educated faction of the Baby Boom generation--had become a cultural punchline. But amidst the Yuppies' preoccupation with money, work, and the latest status symbols, something serious was happening, too, something that continues to have profound ramifications on American culture four decades later.    Brimming with lively and nostalgic details (think Jane Fonda, The Sharper Image, and over-the-top fashion), Triumph of the Yuppies charts Boomers' transformation from hippie idealists in the late 1960s to careerists in the early 1980s, and details how marketers, the media, and politicians pivoted to appeal to this influential new group.  Yuppie values had an undeniable impact on the worlds of fashion, food, and fitness, as well as affecting the broader culture--from gentrification and an obsession with career success to an indulgent materialism. Most significantly, the me first mindset typical of Yuppieness helped create the largest income inequality in a century.   Tom McGrath's masterful cultural history reveals how Yuppies reshaped American society. It is a portrait of America just as it was beginning to come apart--and the origin story of the fractured country we live in today.…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. Tom McGrath's accounts of the cruising life aboard the tiny sailboats Damn Foole and Damn Foole II have achieved cult status in the magazine Messing About in Boats. With humor and a touch of irony, he makes observations that resonate with cruising sailors, shoestring boaters, and others who take their boats more seriously than themselves.McGrath sprinkles his sailing anecdotes with biting social commentary; he casts a satirical eye at everything from waterfront development to the Civil War, from foreign fishing boats to the arrival of the Mayflower. Never totally dogmatic, he's frequently interrupted by members of his "spirit crew," who argue various points of view and brew trouble in every port. Even the boat chimes in occasionally to settle debates or rescue the author from his mistakes. McGrath's ability to laugh at himself and his seamanship follies give these tales universal appeal.Complete with McGrath's rough pen-and-ink sketches, this is sure to become a classic among those who love the sea.…
