The Status Revolution
The Improbable Story of How the Lowbrow Became the Highbrow
Chuck Thompson, 2023
How did rescue dogs become status symbols? Why are luxury brands losing their cachet? What’s made F. Scott Fitzgerald’s most famous observations about the rich obsolete? The answers are part of a new revolution that’s radically reorganizing the way we view ourselves and others, that “will be hard for pop-culture readers to put down”.
Better Off Without 'Em
A Northern Manifesto for Southern Secession
Chuck Thompson, 2013
By crunching numbers, interviewing experts and traveling the not-so-former Confederacy, Thompson—an openly disgruntled liberal Northwesterner—makes a compelling and hilarious case for southern secession.

Thompson sets out to discover if some of the world’s most ill-reputed destinations—Congo, Mexico City, Disneyworld—live up to their bad raps.

Confessions of a Rogue Travel Writer

From getting swindled in Thailand to running afoul of customs inspectors in Belarus to a closed-door meeting with travel execs telling him why he’s about to be fired once again, Thompson’s no-holds-barred style is refreshing, invigorating and all those other adjectives travel writers use to describe spa vacations where the main attraction is a daily colonic.
