Encouraged to be \"winners\" from a young age, Rose and Joe Kennedy's children were an ebullient group of overachievers, but the fourth Kennedy child, the irrepressible Kathleen, stood out. Lively, charismatic, extremely clever, and blessed with graceful athleticism and a sunny disposition, the alluring socialite fondly known as Kick was a firecracker who effortlessly made friends and stole hearts. Moving across the Atlantic when her father was appointed as the ambassador to Great Britain in 1938, Kick--the \"nicest Kennedy\"--quickly became the family's star. Despite making little effort to fit into British high society, she charmed everyone with her unconventional attitude and easygoing humor. Growing increasingly independent, Kick then shocked and alienated her devout family by marrying the scion of a virulently anti-Catholic British family. But the marriage would last only a few months; Billy was killed in combat in 1944, just four years before Kick's own unexpected death in an airplane crash at 28. Paula Byrne recounts this remarkable young woman's life in detail as never before, from her work at the Washington Times-Herald and volunteerism for the Red Cross in wartime England; to her love of politics and astute, opinionated observations; to her decision to renounce her faith for the man she loved. Kick shines a spotlight on this feisty and unique Kennedy long relegated to the shadows of her legendary family's history.--Adapted from dust jacket.

When her father was appointed as the ambassador to Great Britain in 1938, Kick shocked and alienated her devout family by falling in love and marrying the scion of a virulently anti-Catholic family-- William Cavendish, the heir apparent of the Duke of Devonshire and Chatsworth.

For much of the fifteenth century, these two families were locked in battle for control of the British monarchy. Kings were murdered and deposed. Armies marched on London. Old noble names were ruined while rising dynasties seized power and lands. The war between the royal House of Lancaster and York, the longest and most complex in British history, profoundly altered the course of the monarchy. In The Wars of the Roses, Alison Weir reconstructs this conflict with the same dramatic flair and impeccable research that she brought to her highly praised The Princes in the Tower. The first battle erupted in 1455, but the roots of the conflict reached back to the dawn of the fifteenth century, when the corrupt, hedonistic Richard II was sadistically murdered, and Henry IV, the first Lancastrian king, seized England's throne. Both Henry IV and his son, the cold warrior Henry V, ruled England ably, if not always wisely--but Henry VI proved a disaster, both for his dynasty and his kingdom. Only nine months old when his father's sudden death made him king, Henry VI became a tormented and pathetic figure, weak, sexually inept, and prey to fits of insanity. The factional fighting that plagued his reign escalated into bloody war when Richard Plantagenet, Duke of York, laid claim to the throne that was rightfully his--and backed up his claim with armed might. Alison Weir brings brilliantly to life both the war itself and the historic figures who fought it on the great stage of England. Here are the queens who changed history through their actions--the chic, unconventional Katherine of Valois, Henry V's queen; the ruthless, social-climbing Elizabeth Wydville; and, most crucially, Margaret of Anjou, a far tougher and more powerful character than her husband,, Henry VI, and a central figure in the Wars of the Roses. Here, too, are the nobles who carried the conflict down through the generations--the Beauforts, the bastard descendants of John of Gaunt, Richard Neville, Earl of Warwick, known to his contemporaries as \"the Kingmaker\"; and the Yorkist King, Edward IV, a ruthless charmer who pledged his life to cause the downfall of the House of Lancaster. The Wars of the Roses is history at its very best--swift and compelling, rich in character, pageantry, and drama, and vivid in its re-creation of an astonishing, dangerous, and often grim period of history. Alison Weir, one of the foremost authorities on the British royal family, demonstrates here that she is also one of the most dazzling stylists writing history today.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx6p3m7hmng26ppj19ckdfvd.jpg?v=154f472ef2","L7CGMj00Nw_M0L%#oLRPMx.7RPRQ",1995,462,[741],{"id":742,"slug":743,"name":744},"01kkc82xmb1x737y3wp2z7988z","alison-weir-lq4q","Alison Weir",[746,747],{"id":181,"name":182,"slug":183,"is_fiction":20},{"id":30,"name":31,"slug":32,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":144,"complexity":7,"audience":147,"mood":750,"themes":751,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[149,298,337],[752],"multiple-povs",{"id":754,"slug":755,"title":756,"description":757,"primary_cover_url":758,"cover_blurhash":759,"first_publish_year":383,"community_rating_avg":13,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":16,"authors":760,"genres":765,"series":773,"enrichment":774},"01kx6p156xpg19096jkqjmwe5w","race-to-save-the-romanovs-6gjp","Race to Save the Romanovs","\"Investigating the murder of the Russian Imperial Family, Helen Rappaport embarks on a quest to uncover the many international plots to save them, why they failed, and who was responsible. The murder of the Romanov family in July 1918 horrified the world and its aftershocks still reverberate today. In Putin's autocratic Russia, the Revolution itself is considered a crime and its one hundredth anniversary was largely ignored. In stark contrast, the centenary of the massacre of the Imperial Family will be a huge ceremony attended by the Patriarch of the Russian Orthodox Church. While the murder itself has received major attention, what has never been investigated in detail are the various plots behind the scenes to save the family--on the part of their royal relatives, other governments, and Russian monarchists loyal to the Tsar. Rappaport refutes the accusation that the fault lies entirely with King George V, as has been the traditional claim for the last century. The responsibility for failing the Romanovs must be equally shared. The question of asylum for the Tsar and his family was an extremely complicated issue that presented enormous political, logistical and geographical challenges at a time when Europe was still at war. Like a modern-day detective, Helen Rappaport draws on new and never-before-seen sources from archives in the United States, Russia, Spain ,and the United Kingdom, creating a powerful account of near misses and close calls with a heartbreaking conclusion. With its up-to-the-minute research, The Race to Save the Romanovs is sure to replace outdated classics as the final word on the fate of the Romanovs\"--","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx6p157en4z1j0k6jparp25v.jpg?v=5b35880d25","L?O3^HWBkCt7~qofkCWBD%j[jZj[",[761],{"id":762,"slug":763,"name":764},"01kp7nctk2ryhpjtmwszpre5z1","helen-rappaport-r6iu","Helen Rappaport",[766,767,771,772],{"id":284,"name":285,"slug":286,"is_fiction":20},{"id":768,"name":769,"slug":770,"is_fiction":19},55,"World War I","world-war-i",{"id":181,"name":182,"slug":183,"is_fiction":20},{"id":30,"name":31,"slug":32,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":145,"complexity":7,"audience":147,"mood":775,"themes":776,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[149,298,207],[],{"id":778,"slug":779,"title":780,"description":7,"primary_cover_url":781,"cover_blurhash":782,"first_publish_year":675,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":17,"page_count":783,"authors":784,"genres":789,"series":792,"enrichment":793},"01kx6nmd8bz1gk5pf1hcwqbdgj","born-to-rule-6fr6","Born to Rule","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx6nmd8s7bscnzxz6ak7ssn9.jpg?v=e55b2c2fe6","LFFYN2t8IWxb~3ofE2oL^%oLE1Rj",477,[785],{"id":786,"slug":787,"name":788},"01kx6nmd8ndscbj2j7rqbevq23","julia-p-gelardi-dftl","Julia P.

Born in splendor difficult to imagine today, she endured a lifetime of relentless tragedy with courage and exceptional powers of adjustment. The Last Grand Duchess is a valuable account of the final decades of the house of Romanov as seen through the eyes of its last surviving member. Through Olga, we meet Queen Victoria, George V of England, Rasputin, Mrs. Anderson - on whose story the movie Anastasia was made - and other impostors who plagued the exiled duchess with false hope. In this official memoir, Ian Vorres captures the loneliness and violence of Olga's years in Russia, her loveless first marriage to Prince Peter of Oldenburg, her years of exile in England and Denmark, and her final settlement with her second husband and family in Canada.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx6nb389wtpv472vsskg8f5w.jpg?v=8f7818a0d3","LBLymSE1Q8rt4mRi%MxvY+xb*0xu",1964,256,[852],{"id":853,"slug":854,"name":855},"01kx6nb384563fnrc58ymtnd9m","ian-vorres-idbg","Ian Vorres",[857,861,862,863],{"id":858,"name":859,"slug":860,"is_fiction":19},34,"Historical Romance","historical-romance",{"id":768,"name":769,"slug":770,"is_fiction":19},{"id":30,"name":31,"slug":32,"is_fiction":20},{"id":181,"name":182,"slug":183,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":205,"complexity":7,"audience":147,"mood":866,"themes":867,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[208,207],[210,752],{"id":869,"slug":870,"title":871,"description":872,"primary_cover_url":873,"cover_blurhash":874,"first_publish_year":875,"community_rating_avg":876,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":877,"authors":878,"genres":883,"series":887,"enrichment":888},"01kx2bk08tj3mt47crfa5kcsk4","long-live-the-tribe-of-fatherless-girls-ucyq","Long Live the Tribe of Fatherless Girls","\"The book I wish I'd had growing up.\" —Chanel Miller, author of Know My Name Best Books of 2019: Esquire O, The Oprah Magazine Variety Lit Hub Book Riot Electric Literature Autostraddle Finalist: NBCC John Leonard First Book Prize Lambda Literary Award New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice Selection Paste Best Memoirs of the Decade Elle Best Books of the Season Washington Post Best Books of the Month Indie Next Pick Indies Introduce Pick \"A fearless debut.\" — New York Times \"[A] gorgeous reckoning.\" — Washington Post \"Flat out breathtaking.\" — Lit Hub \"Gripping and gloriously written.\" — Elle \"Utterly unforgettable.\" — NYLON \"Unnervingly satisfying.\" — Oprah Magazine \"Deeply compassionate.\" —NPR.org \"Truly stunning.\" — Cosmopolitan Acclaimed literary essayist T Kira Madden's raw and redemptive debut memoir is about coming of age and reckoning with desire as a queer, biracial teenager amidst the fierce contradictions of Boca Raton, Florida, a place where she found cult-like privilege, shocking racial disparities, rampant white-collar crime, and powerfully destructive standards of beauty hiding in plain sight. As a child, Madden lived a life of extravagance, from her exclusive private school to her equestrian trophies and designer shoe-brand name. But under the surface was a wild instability. The only child of parents continually battling drug and alcohol addictions, Madden confronted her environment alone. Facing a culture of assault and objectification, she found lifelines in the desperately loving friendships of fatherless girls. With unflinching honesty and lyrical prose, spanning from 1960s Hawai'i to the present-day struggle of a young woman mourning the loss of a father while unearthing truths that reframe her reality, Long Live the Tribe of Fatherless Girls is equal parts eulogy and love letter. It's a story about trauma and forgiveness, about families of blood and affinity, both lost and found, unmade and rebuilt, crooked and beautiful.

Nowhere in Europe has the Roman Catholic Church exerted a more mystical hold on the life of a nation than it has in Spain. Yet this hold has not been unchanging or unchallenged. By the mid-eighteenth century the Church was no longer the only legitimate source of authority, the all-pervasive presence that it had been, most forcefully in the late fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Still, its power remained formidable. The Spanish Church imposed standards of conduct over the entire range of society, from the aristocracy to the peasant masses, and it possessed the material resources necessary to maintain an elaborate ecclesiastical network that influenced every aspect of Spanish life. The heart of the book deals with the reactions of the Church to the dramatic, sometimes violent, changes that occurred during the critical nineteenth-century period of national transition from royal absolutism to popular liberalism. The study examines the responses of the Church to the new social and political forces that could no longer be excluded or contained, among them an emergent secular--even anticlerical--culture and a developing capitalism.Callahan demonstrates that these changes engendered resentments and frustrations deep within the ecclesiastical order that persisted well into the twentieth century, notably with the Spanish Church's embrace of Franco.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks\u002F01\u002F01kx2a91wdrsvq8m8cab2zp44t.jpg?v=40f5ef3581","LwKSg$WDoKxW~8jHR+WV%JWCsmWp",[899],{"id":900,"slug":901,"name":902},"01kjqz7rn338hakt9x7rffhvn0","henry-david-thoreau-lynz","Henry David Thoreau",[904,905],{"id":30,"name":31,"slug":32,"is_fiction":20},{"id":463,"name":464,"slug":465,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":205,"complexity":7,"audience":147,"mood":908,"themes":910,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[260,909],"philosophical",[],{"id":912,"slug":913,"title":914,"description":915,"primary_cover_url":916,"cover_blurhash":917,"first_publish_year":918,"community_rating_avg":13,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":919,"authors":920,"genres":925,"series":932,"enrichment":933},"01kx26t0a3tz8hpv509x3djyp8","the-bielski-brothers-the-true-story-of-three-men-who-defied-the-nazis-built-a-village-in-the-forest-and-saved-1200-jews-y9ga","The Bielski Brothers The True Story of Three Men Who Defied the Nazis, Built a Village in the Forest, and Saved 1,200 Jews","In 1941, three brothers witnessed their parents and two other siblings being led away to their eventual murders. It was a grim scene that would, of course, be repeated endlessly throughout the war. Instead of running or giving in to despair, these brothers -- Tuvia, Zus, and Asael Bielski -- fought back, waging a guerrilla war of wits against the Nazis. By using their intimate knowledge of the dense forests surrounding the Belarusan towns of Novogrudek and Lida, the Bielskis evaded the Nazis and established a hidden base camp, then set about convincing other Jews to join their ranks. As more and more Jews arrived each day, a robust community began to emerge, a \"Jerusalem in the woods.\" After two and a half years in the woods, in July 1944, the Bielskis learned that the Germans, overrun by the Red Army, were retreating back toward Berlin. More than one thousand Bielski Jews emerged -- alive -- on that final, triumphant exit from the woods.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx26t0agg1ngvkhhv9yyt2km.jpg?v=9d4bff31dd","L6BWSR1401IB~mEhVuxa02$xShtR",2004,336,[921],{"id":922,"slug":923,"name":924},"01kqn921tw9va8xzsx6y3tqy1w","peter-duffy-evzb","Peter Duffy",[926,930,931],{"id":927,"name":928,"slug":929,"is_fiction":19},54,"World War II","world-war-ii",{"id":30,"name":31,"slug":32,"is_fiction":20},{"id":181,"name":182,"slug":183,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":144,"complexity":7,"audience":147,"mood":934,"themes":935,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[149,151],[],[]]
