In New America President Steve Coll's new book, the Pulitzer Prize winning reporter dives deep into the country's largest private corporation, ExxonMobil. In Private Empire, which The New York Times calls "meticulous, multi-angled and valuable," Coll examines the company's sway over politics and security in the U.S. and abroad. Excerpts were recently published in Salon and The New Yorker.
In his new book Man Hunt, Peter Bergen, the only journalist to gain access to Osama bin Laden’s Abbottabad compound before it was demolished, gives a stark description of bin Laden's life in hiding and recounts ten years of American efforts to find and kill the terrorist leader. An excerpt was recently featured as a TIME magazine cover story.
