Nashville, August 1920. The Nineteenth Amendment to the Constitution, granting all women the vote, is on the verge of ratification--or defeat. Out of the thirty-six states needed, thirty-five have approved it, and one last state is still in play--Tennessee. After a seven-decade crusade to win the ballot, this is the moment of truth for the suffragists, and Nashville becomes a frenzied battleground as the enormous forces allied for and against women's suffrage make their last stand.

Louisiana bayou country--a stronghold of the conservative right. As she gets to know people who strongly oppose many of the ideas she famously champions, Hochschild nevertheless finds common ground and quickly warms to the people she meets--among them a Tea Party activist whose town has been swallowed by a sinkhole caused by a drilling accident--people whose concerns are actually ones that all Americans share: the desire for community, the embrace of family, and hopes for their children. Strangers in Their Own Land goes beyond the commonplace liberal idea that these are people who have been duped into voting against their own interests. Instead, Hochschild finds lives ripped apart by stagnant wages, a loss of home, an elusive American dream--and political choices and views that make sense in the context of their lives. Hochschild draws on her expert knowledge of the sociology of emotion to help us understand what it feels like to live in \"red\" America. Along the way she finds answers to one of the crucial questions of contemporary American politics: why do the people who would seem to benefit most from \"liberal\" government intervention abhor the very idea?\"--","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01knpxdkj61pjf2d20q5t5wtrj.jpg","LYQJWMxuxut7_NWBt7j[o#WBWBfR",2016,368,[173],{"id":174,"slug":175,"name":176},"01knpxdkhwpsmsprmh278vm6q3","arlie-russell-hochschild-4dxr","Arlie Russell Hochschild",[178,179,183,184],{"id":27,"name":28,"slug":29,"is_fiction":18},{"id":180,"name":181,"slug":182,"is_fiction":18},86,"Essays","essays",{"id":31,"name":32,"slug":33,"is_fiction":18},{"id":185,"name":186,"slug":187,"is_fiction":18},83,"Sociology","sociology",[],{"pace":148,"complexity":7,"audience":150,"mood":190,"themes":193,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[191,192],"thought-provoking","reflective",[],{"id":195,"slug":196,"title":197,"description":198,"primary_cover_url":199,"cover_blurhash":200,"first_publish_year":201,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":13,"page_count":7,"authors":202,"genres":207,"series":222,"enrichment":223},"01kkxd9a23g1w6fw35zd3py3xh","my-watch-3efr","My Watch","Explore the remarkable life of Olusegun Obasanjo, a key figure in Nigeria's political landscape.

We habitually think of the European past as the history of countries which exist today - France, Germany, Britain, Russia and so on - but often this actually obstructs our view of the past, and blunts our sensitivity to the ever-changing political landscape. Europe's history is littered with kingdoms, duchies, empires and republics which have now disappeared but which were once fixtures on the map of their age - 'the Empire of Aragon' which once dominated the western Mediterranean; the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, for a time the largest country in Europe; the successive kingdoms (and one duchy) of Burgundy, much of whose history is now half-remembered - or half-forgotten - at best. This book shows the reader how to peer through the cracks of mainstream history writing and listen to the echoes of lost realms across the centuries. How many British people know that Glasgow was founded by the Welsh in a period when neither England nor Scotland existed? How many of us will remember the former Soviet Union in a few generations' time? Will our own United Kingdom become a distant memory too? As in his earlier celebrated books Europe: a history and The Isles, Norman Davies aims to subvert our established view of what seems familiar, and urges us to look and think again. This stimulating surprising book, full of unexpected stories, observations and connections, gives us a fresh and original perspective on the history of Europe. -- Product Description.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx6nygmmx7q6nj6f9hecehpt.jpg?v=8364edc35a","LhJbdCs,%LRk?wjrjZt7ITofWBog",2011,672,[283],{"id":284,"slug":285,"name":286},"01kx6nygmjg03sqqgca3pa3m3x","norman-jordan-davies-2ro5","Norman Jordan Davies",[288,289],{"id":31,"name":32,"slug":33,"is_fiction":18},{"id":27,"name":28,"slug":29,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":292,"complexity":7,"audience":150,"mood":293,"themes":295,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},"slow",[153,294,191],"intellectual",[],{"id":297,"slug":298,"title":299,"description":300,"primary_cover_url":301,"cover_blurhash":302,"first_publish_year":303,"community_rating_avg":304,"community_rating_count":305,"page_count":306,"authors":307,"genres":316,"series":321,"enrichment":322},"01kx6nsge3ekzh6ggkj314rnmf","the-presidents-aomn","The Presidents","The Presidents collects the complete rankings from C-SPAN's Historians Surveys of Presidential Leadership, the long-running poll in which leading presidential historians and biographers rate every U.S. president across categories such as persuasive ability, moral authority, and administrative skill.\n\nBuilt from decades of interviews C-SPAN founder Brian Lamb and Susan Swain conducted with presidential biographers, the book profiles each of the 43 men who had served as president at the time of the 2017 survey, ordering them from the highest-ranked (Abraham Lincoln) to the lowest (James Buchanan).

The book also takes up the peacemakers' long-disputed legacy, arguing against the popular narrative that the Treaty of Versailles and its reparations set an inevitable course toward the Second World War.\n\nPublished in the UK as Peacemakers: The Paris Peace Conference of 1919 and Its Attempt to End War, the book won the Duff Cooper Prize and the PEN Hessell-Tiltman Prize for history.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx6pexpwr8sf3s71w22x1wrj.jpg?v=1675d61fd2","LVH.NTofxuRj00ofRjWB~qofofj[",2003,[361],{"id":362,"slug":363,"name":364},"01kx6nz5zwf7gzakjh7byz8vvg","margaret-olwen-macmillan-kiyd","Margaret Olwen Macmillan",[366,367,371],{"id":27,"name":28,"slug":29,"is_fiction":18},{"id":368,"name":369,"slug":370,"is_fiction":17},55,"World War I","world-war-i",{"id":31,"name":32,"slug":33,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":148,"complexity":7,"audience":150,"mood":374,"themes":375,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[153,191,294],[],{"id":377,"slug":378,"title":379,"description":380,"primary_cover_url":381,"cover_blurhash":382,"first_publish_year":383,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":13,"page_count":384,"authors":385,"genres":390,"series":394,"enrichment":395},"01kx6p6zeh7ck2h945zcp74vas","diplomacy-ejuz","Diplomacy","In Diplomacy, Henry Kissinger traces the practice of international relations from the Peace of Westphalia in 1648 through the end of the Cold War, with particular focus on the twentieth century. Drawing on his own experience as U.S. National Security Advisor and Secretary of State under Presidents Nixon and Ford, Kissinger examines the careers of statesmen including Richelieu, Metternich, Bismarck, Theodore Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, and Franklin Roosevelt, contrasting the European balance-of-power tradition and raison d'etat with the American strain of idealism rooted in self-determination and collective security.\n\nThe book covers the run-up to both World Wars, the Paris Peace Conference, the interwar years, and the Cold War standoffs between the United States and the Soviet Union, including his own role in the opening to China and detente with Moscow. It closes with an argument for how the United States should conduct foreign policy in a post-Cold War, multipolar world, weighing the tension between Wilsonian idealism and Realpolitik that Kissinger sees as the defining thread of American diplomatic history.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx6p6zexnw7xm5kbgcpfmc6s.jpg?v=e81132fc79","LhN^6roftRs:~qafozj[4nayj@ay",1995,912,[386],{"id":387,"slug":388,"name":389},"01kk2sn5t5me7aqpwtv1p5yy8e","henry-kissinger-8mxr","Henry Kissinger",[391,392,393],{"id":31,"name":32,"slug":33,"is_fiction":18},{"id":27,"name":28,"slug":29,"is_fiction":18},{"id":344,"name":345,"slug":346,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":292,"complexity":7,"audience":150,"mood":396,"themes":397,"setting_period":7,"summary":398,"content_warnings":7},[153,294,192,191],[],"A sweeping history of international diplomacy from the Peace of Westphalia to the end of the Cold War, written by former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger and drawing on his own experience shaping American foreign policy.",{"id":400,"slug":401,"title":402,"description":403,"primary_cover_url":404,"cover_blurhash":405,"first_publish_year":406,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":13,"page_count":407,"authors":408,"genres":413,"series":419,"enrichment":420},"01kx6p44m0xkbr0rhy9s5s3v96","the-patriarch-7crm","The patriarch","David Nasaw's biography of Joseph P.

To understand Putin's actions, for example, it is essential to consider that, to be a world power, Russia must have a navy. And if its ports freeze for six months each year then it must have access to a warm water port - hence, the annexation of Crimea was the only option for Putin. To understand the Middle East, it is crucial to know that geography is the reason why countries have logically been shaped as they are - and this is why invented countries (e.g. Syria, Iraq, Libya) will not survive as nation states.

In centering Black women's stories, two award-winning historians seek both to empower African American women and to show their allies that Black women's unique ability to make their own communities while combatting centuries of oppression is an essential component in our continued resistance to systemic racism and sexism. Daina Ramey Berry and Kali Nicole Gross offer an examination and celebration of Black womanhood, beginning with the first African women who arrived in what became the United States to African American women of today. A Black Women's History of the United States reaches far beyond a single narrative to showcase Black women's lives in all their fraught complexities. Berry and Gross prioritize many voices: enslaved women, freedwomen, religious leaders, artists, queer women, activists, and women who lived outside the law. The result is a starting point for exploring Black women's history and a testament to the beauty, richness, rhythm, tragedy, heartbreak, rage, and enduring love that abounds in the spirit of Black women in communities throughout the nation.\"--Publisher's website.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks\u002F01\u002F01kx29m31rg13yykmjjf4e92bb.jpg?v=e6113d70b8","L8IX1=IB#jxZ~QR6$$af02M{W?NH",273,[844,848],{"id":845,"slug":846,"name":847},"01kx29m32624yz441v9rk3gw9t","daina-ramey-berry-vpwu","Daina Ramey Berry",{"id":849,"slug":850,"name":851},"01kx29m328854bm2scdbgmrm2s","kali-nicole-gross-91pl","Kali Nicole Gross",[853],{"id":27,"name":28,"slug":29,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":148,"complexity":7,"audience":150,"mood":856,"themes":857,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[152,153],[],{"id":859,"slug":860,"title":861,"description":862,"primary_cover_url":863,"cover_blurhash":864,"first_publish_year":865,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":13,"page_count":653,"authors":866,"genres":868,"series":877,"enrichment":878},"01kpqwnvghcsnnc40apk6v4kb9","school-for-soldiers-fii4","School for soldiers","This book offers a deep dive into the United States Military Academy, exploring its history and role in shaping military leaders.

Operating in Chicago's notorious Levee district at the dawn of the last century, the Club's proprietors, two aristocratic sisters named Minna and Ada Everleigh, welcomed moguls and actors, senators and athletes, foreign dignitaries and literary icons, into their stately double mansion, where thirty stunning Everleigh \"butterflies\" awaited their arrival. Courtesans named Doll, Suzy Poon Tang, and Brick Top devoured raw meat to the delight of Prince Henry of Prussia and recited poetry for Theodore Dreiser. Whereas lesser madams pocketed most of a harlot's earnings and kept a \"whipper\" on staff to mete out discipline, the Everleighs made sure their girls dined on gourmet food, were examined by an honest physician, and even tutored in the literature of Balzac.Not everyone appreciated the sisters' attempts to elevate the industry. Rival Levee madams hatched numerous schemes to ruin the Everleighs, including an attempt to frame them for the death of department store heir Marshall Field, Jr. But the sisters' most daunting foes were the Progressive Era reformers, who sent the entire country into a frenzy with lurid tales of \"white slavery\"--the allegedly rampant practice of kidnapping young girls and forcing them into brothels. This furor shaped America's sexual culture and had repercussions all the way to the White House, including the formation of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.With a cast of characters that includes Jack Johnson, John Barrymore, John D. Rockefeller, Jr., William Howard Taft, \"Hinky Dink\" Kenna, and Al Capone, Sin in the Second City is Karen Abbott's colorful, nuanced portrait of the iconic Everleigh sisters, their world-famous Club, and the perennial clash between our nation's hedonistic impulses and Puritanical roots. Culminating in a dramatic last stand between brothel keepers and crusading reformers, Sin in the Second City offers a vivid snapshot of America's journey from Victorian-era propriety to twentieth-century modernity.Visit www.sininthesecondcity.com to learn more!Praise for Sin in the Second City:\"Assiduously researched... [Sin in the Second City] describes a popular culture awash in wild tales of sexual abuse, crusading reformers claiming God on their side, and deep suspicion of the threat posed by \"foreigners\" to the nation's Christian values.\" --Janet Maslin, The New York Times \"Lavish in her details, nicely detached in her point of view, [and with] scrupulous concern for historical accuracy, Ms. Abbott has written an immensely readable book. Sin in the Second City offers much in the way of reflection for those interested in the unending puzzle that goes by the name of human nature.\" -- The Wall Street Journal \"Abbott's first book is meticulously researched and entertaining... a colorful history of old Chicago that reads like a novel.\" --The Atlanta Journal Constitution\"With gleaming prose and authoritative knowledge Abbott elucidates one of the most colorful periods in American history, and the result reads like the very best fiction.

But when her mother asks her to handle the sale of Connie's grandmother's abandoned home near Salem, she can't refuse. As she is drawn deeper into the mysteries of the family house, Connie discovers an ancient key within a seventeenth-century Bible. The key contains a yellowing fragment of parchment with a name written upon it: Deliverance Dane. This discovery launches Connie on a quest--to find out who this woman was and to unearth a rare artifact of singular power: a physick book, its pages a secret repository for lost knowledge. As the pieces of Deliverance's harrowing story begin to fall into place, Connie is haunted by visions of the long-ago witch trials, and she begins to fear that she is more tied to Salem's dark past then she could have ever imagined. Written with astonishing conviction and grace, *The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane* travels seamlessly between the witch trials of the 1690s and a modern woman's story of mystery, intrigue, and revelation.
