Each chapter runs roughly a dozen pages, combining basic biography with the historians' reasoning for a president's placement.

As Wei Wuxian uncovers the truth behind his own downfall and the mystery at hand, he must confront both his past choices and a present threat that could destroy everything around him.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx6rx6gz9zxr4arv5ja5fx6h.jpg?v=2e6fce8107","L9DAP%~pR6D*4TELXSr[Ew00V@-;",2022,[710],{"id":711,"slug":712,"name":713},"01kjwtgnxkcsra8tmmakr0cy2x","mo-xiang-tong-xiu-mops","Mo Xiang Tong Xiu",[],[],{"pace":164,"complexity":10,"audience":166,"mood":717,"themes":718,"setting_period":10,"summary":705,"content_warnings":10},[561,222,563],[719,565,720,171],"slow-burn","revenge",{"key":722,"params":723,"works":724},"genre_year",{"genre":33,"year":9},[725,741,756,789,805,824],{"id":180,"slug":181,"title":182,"description":183,"primary_cover_url":184,"cover_blurhash":185,"first_publish_year":186,"community_rating_avg":187,"community_rating_count":188,"page_count":189,"authors":726,"genres":729,"series":737,"enrichment":738},[727,728],{"id":192,"slug":193,"name":194},{"id":196,"slug":197,"name":198},[730,731,732,733,734,735,736],{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":19},{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":19},{"id":141,"name":203,"slug":204,"is_fiction":18},{"id":133,"name":206,"slug":207,"is_fiction":18},{"id":209,"name":210,"slug":211,"is_fiction":18},{"id":213,"name":214,"slug":215,"is_fiction":18},{"id":165,"name":217,"slug":218,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":163,"complexity":10,"audience":166,"mood":739,"themes":740,"setting_period":10,"summary":10,"content_warnings":10},[222,223],[225,226],{"id":228,"slug":229,"title":230,"description":231,"primary_cover_url":232,"cover_blurhash":233,"first_publish_year":234,"community_rating_avg":10,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":235,"authors":742,"genres":744,"series":752,"enrichment":753},[743],{"id":238,"slug":239,"name":240},[745,746,747,748,749,750,751],{"id":243,"name":244,"slug":245,"is_fiction":19},{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":19},{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":19},{"id":249,"name":250,"slug":251,"is_fiction":19},{"id":253,"name":254,"slug":255,"is_fiction":19},{"id":257,"name":258,"slug":259,"is_fiction":19},{"id":261,"name":262,"slug":263,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":163,"complexity":10,"audience":166,"mood":754,"themes":755,"setting_period":10,"summary":231,"content_warnings":10},[267,222],[],{"id":757,"slug":758,"title":759,"description":760,"primary_cover_url":761,"cover_blurhash":762,"first_publish_year":9,"community_rating_avg":10,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":763,"authors":764,"genres":769,"series":785,"enrichment":786},"01kjv40sq8cdrt4b9j4gq3m33j","wasted-eotb","Wasted","This raw and honest memoir chronicles Marya Hornbacher's harrowing battle with anorexia and bulimia.

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,[861],{"id":862,"slug":863,"name":864},"01knpxdkhwpsmsprmh278vm6q3","arlie-russell-hochschild-4dxr","Arlie Russell Hochschild",[866,867,868,869],{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":19},{"id":297,"name":298,"slug":299,"is_fiction":19},{"id":367,"name":368,"slug":369,"is_fiction":19},{"id":870,"name":871,"slug":872,"is_fiction":19},83,"Sociology","sociology",[],{"pace":164,"complexity":10,"audience":166,"mood":875,"themes":876,"setting_period":10,"summary":10,"content_warnings":10},[267,168],[],{"id":317,"slug":318,"title":319,"description":320,"primary_cover_url":321,"cover_blurhash":322,"first_publish_year":323,"community_rating_avg":10,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":324,"authors":878,"genres":881,"series":887,"enrichment":888},[879,880],{"id":327,"slug":328,"name":329},{"id":331,"slug":332,"name":333},[882,883,884,885,886],{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":19},{"id":243,"name":244,"slug":245,"is_fiction":19},{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":19},{"id":339,"name":340,"slug":341,"is_fiction":19},{"id":343,"name":344,"slug":345,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":163,"complexity":10,"audience":166,"mood":889,"themes":890,"setting_period":10,"summary":10,"content_warnings":10},[169,168],[],{"id":892,"slug":893,"title":894,"description":10,"primary_cover_url":895,"cover_blurhash":896,"first_publish_year":858,"community_rating_avg":10,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":897,"authors":898,"genres":903,"series":909,"enrichment":910},"01kx6p7b45yn9xda66r5t2tpyk","chernobyl-012340-fdhe","Chernobyl 01:23:40","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx6p7b4qrt1yfps89kw44nf8.jpg?v=b898fd01ba","L2Pt0]tR-;_4?bRj%NRj00Rj-;fR",247,[899],{"id":900,"slug":901,"name":902},"01kx6p7b4jntpswewyj44k1fj6","andrew-leatherbarrow-qggi","Andrew Leatherbarrow",[904,908],{"id":905,"name":906,"slug":907,"is_fiction":19},104,"True Crime","true-crime",{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":164,"complexity":10,"audience":166,"mood":911,"themes":912,"setting_period":10,"summary":10,"content_warnings":10},[563,561,168],[],{"id":351,"slug":352,"title":353,"description":354,"primary_cover_url":355,"cover_blurhash":356,"first_publish_year":357,"community_rating_avg":10,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":358,"authors":914,"genres":916,"series":921,"enrichment":922},[915],{"id":361,"slug":362,"name":363},[917,918,919,920],{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":19},{"id":367,"name":368,"slug":369,"is_fiction":19},{"id":243,"name":244,"slug":245,"is_fiction":19},{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":164,"complexity":10,"audience":166,"mood":923,"themes":924,"setting_period":10,"summary":378,"content_warnings":10},[375,376,168],[],{"id":416,"slug":417,"title":418,"description":419,"primary_cover_url":420,"cover_blurhash":421,"first_publish_year":422,"community_rating_avg":10,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":10,"authors":926,"genres":928,"series":934,"enrichment":935},[927],{"id":425,"slug":426,"name":427},[929,930,931,932,933],{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":19},{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":19},{"id":243,"name":244,"slug":245,"is_fiction":19},{"id":339,"name":340,"slug":341,"is_fiction":19},{"id":367,"name":368,"slug":369,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":164,"complexity":10,"audience":166,"mood":936,"themes":937,"setting_period":10,"summary":10,"content_warnings":10},[413,168],[],{"id":939,"slug":940,"title":941,"description":942,"primary_cover_url":943,"cover_blurhash":944,"first_publish_year":830,"community_rating_avg":945,"community_rating_count":188,"page_count":946,"authors":947,"genres":952,"series":965,"enrichment":966},"01kx2dmmw9gjja89wbhja1x1fc","five-quarters-of-the-orange-oaq8","Five quarters of the orange","Framboise Dartigen returns to her childhood home in Les Laveurs, a small village on the Loire, under an assumed name.

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.
