She awakes to find that, instead of being in her bedroom at home in Skipton, somehow she has been transported to Ireland, the location that she had just read about in the book.

The third volume in the Docalogue series, this book explores the significance of the documentary series Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness (2020), which became 'must-see-TV' for a newly captive audience during the global Covid-19 pandemic. The series – a true-crime, tabloid spectacle about a murder-for-hire plot within the big cat trade – prompts interesting questions about which documentaries become popular in particular moments and why. However, it also raises important questions related to the medium specificity of documentary in the streaming era, as well as the ethics of both human and animal representation. By combining five distinct perspectives on the Netflix documentary series, this book offers a complex and cumulative discourse about Tiger King’s significance in multiple areas including, but not limited to, animal studies, queer theory, genre studies, labor relations, and digital culture. Students and scholars of film, media, television, and cultural studies will find this book extremely valuable in understanding the significance of this larger-than-life true-crime documentary series.

Banana Republic Revisited is a 10-year update of Will Moredock's 2003 book, Banana Republic -- A Year in the Heart of Myrtle Beach, timed to coincide with Myrtle Beach's 75th birthday celebration. It is a unique historical, political, and demographic profile of this dynamic, crazy southern beach town which has been called "South Carolina on steroids." It is a popular read, but has been used as assigned reading in urban planning classes in at least two S.C. universities. A fascinating study of life in the modern South. Good writing and research and a good fun read.
