The rhetoric of religious freedom in the United States / edited by Eric C. Miller.
Fifteen religion scholars address the variety of forms that free, public religiosity may assume, and which
rhetorical techniques are operative in a public square populated by a diversity of religious‐political actors.
Together they consider the arguments, evidences, and strategies defining what religious freedom means and
who is entitled to claim it in the contemporary United States. (Includes discussion of the religious aspects of
the Dakota Access Pipeline protests at Standing Rock.)

Believe it : my journey of success, failure, and overcoming the odds / Nick Foles, with Joshua Cooley.
When the Philadelphia Eagles' starting quarterback went down with a torn ACL in week 14 of the 2017 NFL
season, many fans and commentators assumed the Eagles' season was over. Instead, Nick Foles came off the
bench and, against all odds, led the Eagles to their first Super Bowl victory in history. How did Nick get it done ‐
‐ winning MVP honors, silencing the critics, and shocking the world? How did the man who was on the verge of
retiring just two seasons earlier stay optimistic and rally the team to an astounding win? How did he stay ready
despite numerous trades and discouraging injuries, able to step up in the moment and perform at the top of
his game? Believe It offers a behind‐the‐scenes look at Nick's unlikely path to the Super Bowl, the obstacles
that threatened to hold him back, his rediscovery of his love for the game, and the faith that grounded him
through it all. Learn from the way Nick handled the trials and tribulations that made him into the man he is
today, and discover a path to your own success.

Great American outpost : dreamers, mavericks, and the making of an oil frontier / Maya Rao.
As North Dakota became the nation's second‐largest oil producer, Maya Rao set out in steel‐toe boots to join a
wave of drifters, dreamers, entrepreneurs, and criminals. She rode shotgun with a surfer‐turned‐truck driver
braving toxic fumes and dangerous roads, dined with businessmen disgraced during the financial crisis, and
interviewed everyone in between ‐‐ including an ex‐con YouTube celebrity, a trophy wife mired in scandal, and
a hard‐drinking British Ponzi schemer ‐‐ in a social scene so rife with intrigue that one investor called the
oilfield Peyton Place on steroids. As the boom receded, a culture of greed and recklessness left troubling
consequences for investors and longtime residents. Empty trailers and idle oil equipment littered the fields like
abandoned farmsteads, leaving the pioneers who built this unlikely civilization to reckon with their legacy.

protests, stoppages, and even war. Readers of this comprehensive volume, which explores the topic from a
multitude of angles, will learn how a simple pipeline can have enormous geopolitical ramifications. (Written
for ages 14‐17)

Stone song : a novel of the life of Crazy Horse / Win Blevins. 20th anniversary edition.
Of all the great warriors of Native America, Crazy Horse remains the most enigmatic. Scorned from his
childhood for his light hair, he was a man who spurned the love of finery and honors so characteristic of Lakota
Sioux warriors. Despite these differences, Crazy Horse led his people to their greatest victory at the Battle of
the Little Big Horn where General Custer fell. Crazy Horse's entire life was a triumph of the spirit. In youth,
Crazy Horse was set aside by his powerful vision of Rider, the spiritual expression of his future greatness, and
by the passion and grief of his overwhelming love for a woman. It was only in battle that his heart could find
rest. As his world crumbled, Crazy Horse managed to find his way in harmony with the age‐old wisdom of the
Lakota, and to beat the U.S. Army on its own terms. He lived, and died, his own man.

Sister secrets : a brother's reveal / by Matthew Valan.
The farmers of the Red River Valley of rural North Dakota and Minnesota don't often talk publicly (or privately)
about mental illness. Lutheran pastor Matthew Valan's two sisters were diagnosed too late with bipolar
disorder. One is dead. The other is in prison. Trying to understand what may have led his beloved sisters to act
in the ways they did, Valan examines dark family dynamics he didn't fully comprehend when younger ‐‐ an
often‐absent father involved in politics, and sexual abuse. As he made his way through these dark places, a
measure of wholeness and healing came to him, unearthing a passion to help people unlock the secrets of
their own lives.

Origin, development and dissolution of the German colonies on the Black Sea via the example of Kandel from
1808 until 1944 / Anton Bosch and Josef Lingor.
The history of the people and villages established by German colonists in the Black Sea area beginning in the
early 1800s until 1944, using the village of Kandel and neighboring villages as examples. It is an attempt to

through the highs and lows of World War I, the Civil War, and Stalin's persecution during and after World War
II. It describes events and achievements focusing on people in Kandel deeply rooted in the language and
culture of the old homeland of Germany. In the end, the village ceased to exist, with its inhabitants dispersed

There is more : when the world says you can't ‐‐ God says you can / Brian Houston.
Founder and Global Senior Pastor of Hillsong Church Brian Houston shows how, with God's power, you can
believe and achieve a life that exceeds every earthly expectation. When you surrender control and follow
God's guidance, you become empowered and equipped to do the impossible, reach higher, and go further
than you could have ever imagined ‐‐ giving Him all the glory. By building our lives around godly principles,
surrounding ourselves with wisdom, and living for a cause greater than ourselves, we can effectively live out
God's purposes and have an enduring impact. As Brian Houston has personally discovered, when we depend
on Jesus as the source for our identity, our lives can be a lasting legacy that maximize the gifts He has given
each of us as unique individuals. There is more is for anyone who wants to be challenged to live with
expectancy. Ephesians 3 is a call to release the immeasurable potential within you and the exceeding,
abundant, and above plans and purposes of a Holy God that are beyond your greatest imagination. "Now to
Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that
works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen"
(Ephesians 3:20‐21).

To change the church : Pope Francis and the future of Catholicism / Ross Douthat.
Many people see Pope Francis using his authority to address global crises, from climate change to the scourge
of global poverty. But he has divided his church by seeking changes, especially around marriage, sexuality, and
divorce, which many Catholics believe are betrayals not only of church teaching but of the words of Jesus

Christ himself. Douthat shows how the major debate Francis has opened ‐‐ over communion for the divorced
and remarried ‐‐ divides Catholicism along geographical and cultural lines. Amid populist surges, mass
migration, and reawakened extremism, is Francis offering a Christian alternative to the status quo, or trying to
reconcile the church to a modern world that's exhausted and corrupt?

Indianapolis : the true story of the worst sea disaster in U.S. naval history and the fifty‐year fight to exonerate
an innocent man / Lynn Vincent and Sara Vladic.
Just after midnight on July 30, 1945, days after delivering the components of the atomic bomb from California
to the Pacific Islands in the most highly classified naval mission of the war, the USS Indianapolis is sailing alone
in the center of the Philippine Sea when she is struck by two Japanese torpedoes. The ship is instantly
transformed into a fiery cauldron and sinks within minutes. Some 300 men go down with the ship. Nearly 900
make it into the water alive. For the next five nights and four days, almost three hundred miles from the
nearest land, the men battle injuries, sharks, dehydration, insanity, and eventually each other. Only 316 will
survive. For the better part of a century, the story of USS Indianapolis has been understood as a sinking tale.
The reality, however, is far more complicated. Following a decade of original research and interviews with 107
survivors and eyewitnesses, Lynn Vincent and Sara Vladic tell the complete story of the ship, her crew, and
their final mission to save one of their own. The survivors fight for fifty years on behalf of their skipper, Captain
Charles McVay III, who is wrongly court‐martialed for the sinking. The courtroom drama weaves through
generations of American presidents, from Harry Truman to George W. Bush, and forever entwines the lives of
three captains: McVay, whose life and career are never the same after the scandal; Mochitsura Hashimoto, the
Japanese sub commander who sinks Indianapolis but later joins the battle to exonerate McVay; and William
Toti, the captain of the modern‐day submarine Indianapolis, who helps the survivors fight to vindicate their
captain.

The secret rescue : an untold story of American nurses and medics behind Nazi lines / Cate Lineberry.
When 26 Army Air Forces flight nurses and medics board a military transport plane in November 1943, they
never anticipate a crash landing in Nazi territory, or their ensuing months‐long fight to survive. When the
Americans emerge from their battered aircraft, they find themselves in Albania, a brutal and poverty‐stricken
country rife with chaos and danger, with only one gun among them. Met by battle‐hardened partisans, they
wander for months over rugged mountains during a severe weather in an effort of escape, facing a barrage of
life‐threatening incidents, including a German attack. With hunger and sickness as their constant companions,
the party is haunted by the specter of capture by the Nazis. As the stranded group hopes for a daring rescue,
they must put their faith in the hands of officers working for clandestine British and American organizations.
The drama of the party captured the attention of the American public at the time, but the details of their
journey remained hidden for decades.

The plot to destroy democracy : how Putin and his spies are undermining America and dismantling the West /
Malcolm Nance ; foreword by Rob Reiner.
In the greatest intelligence operation in the history of the world, Donald Trump was made President of the
United States with the assistance of a foreign power. Career U.S. Intelligence officer Malcolm Nance provides
the dramatic story of how blackmail, espionage, assassination, and psychological warfare were used by
Vladimir Putin and his spy agencies to steal the 2016 U.S. election as a step towards bringing about the fall of
NATO, the European Union, and Western democracy. Russia and its fifth column allies work to flip the
cornerstones of democracy in order to re‐engineer the world political order that has kept most of the world
free since 1945. Nance has utilized top secret Russian‐sourced political and hybrid warfare strategy documents
to demonstrate the master plan to undermine American institutions that has been in effect from the Cold War
to the present day. Nance exposes how Russia has supported the campaigns of right‐wing extremists
throughout both the U.S. and Europe to leverage an axis of autocracy, and how Putin's agencies have worked
since 2010 to bring fringe candidate Donald Trump into elections.

The accidental president : Harry S. Truman and the four months that changed the world / A.J. Baime.
Heroes are often defined as ordinary characters who are thrust into extraordinary circumstances, and through
courage and a dash of luck, cement their place in history. Chosen as FDR's fourth‐term vice president for his
well‐praised work ethic, good judgment, and lack of enemies, Harry S. Truman ‐‐ a Midwesterner who had no
college degree and had never had the money to buy his own home ‐‐ was the prototypical ordinary man. Until,
that is, he found himself quickly in over his head after FDR's death. The first four months of Truman's
administration saw the founding of the United Nations, the fall of Berlin, victory at Okinawa, firebombings in
Tokyo, the first atomic explosion, the Nazi surrender, the liberation of concentration camps, the mass
starvation of Europe, the Potsdam Conference, the controversial decision to bomb Hiroshima and Nagasaki,
the surrender of imperial Japan, and finally, the end of World War II and the rise of the Cold War. No other
president had ever faced so much in so short a time. The Accidental President takes readers into the situation
room with Truman during this tumultuous, history‐making 120 days when the stakes were high and the
challenges even higher.

From the corner of the Oval / Beck Dorey‐Stein.
In 2012, Beck Dorey‐Stein was just scraping by in DC when a posting on Craigslist landed her, improbably, in
the Oval Office as one of Barack Obama's stenographers. For five years, Beck was a part of the elite team of
men and women who accompanied the president wherever he went, recorder and mic in hand. She got to
know everyone from the White House butler to the secret servicemen, advance team, speechwriters,
photographers, and press secretaries. On whirlwind trips across time zones, she forged friendships with a tight
group of fellow travelers in the bubble ‐‐ young men and women who, like her, left their real lives behind to
hop aboard Air Force One in service of the president. But as she learned the ropes of protocol, Beck became
romantically entangled with one of the President's closest aides, who was already otherwise engaged... Set
against the backdrop of the White House, this is the story of a young woman finding friends, falling in love,
getting her heart broken, finding her voice as a writer, and finding herself in the process.

Killing the Deep State : the fight to save President Trump / Jerome R. Corsi.
At 2:45 a.m. ET on Nov. 8, 2016, television networks announced to a stunned nation that Pennsylvania's 20
electoral had gone for Donald Trump, making him the president‐elect of the United States, defying all odds in a
surreal victory that sent the Deep State into an immediate sense of panic. By dawn on Nov. 9, 2016, the Deep
State forces that expected Hillary Clinton to continue the leftist politics of Barack Obama were already
planning Donald Trump's demise. What emerged from the hard left was a political strategy calculated to block
Donald Trump from being inaugurated, and if that failed, to make sure Donald Trump would not long serve out
his term as 45th President of the United States. Investigative journalist and conspiracy expert Jerome Corsi
goes into shocking detail about how this Deep State or Shadow Government secretly wields power in
Washington, and why the Deep State is dangerous ‐‐ capable of assassinating Trump if efforts to impeach him
or to force him to resign fail. Corsi also defines a three‐point strategy Trump ‐‐ as a political independent,
opposed both by Democratic Party enemies and GOP establishment ‐‐ must employ to stay in office and have a
chance of a successful first term in office.

Liars, leakers, and liberals : the case against the anti‐Trump conspiracy / Judge Jeanine Pirro.
We are victims of a subterfuge and sabotage of the presidency that we've never witnessed before.
Nevertheless, President Trump continues to fight every day to keep his promise to Make America Great Again.
That bold idea has already led to a conservative judge on the Supreme Court, tax reform, and deregulation that
has unleashed an economy stronger than anyone could have imagined. But there are dark forces that seek to

obstruct and undermine the president, their ultimate goal to reverse the results of the 2016 presidential
election. They are part of a wide‐ranging conspiracy that would seem incredible if it weren't being perpetrated
openly, for all the world to see. Driven by unbridled ambition, blinded by greed, and bound by a common goal
‐‐ to unseat the 45th President of the United States ‐‐ this cabal is determined to maintain its hold on a power
to which its members have no legitimate claim. Former prosecutor Jeanine Pirro outlines a plot against the
People of the United States and argues that the conspirators have the means and motive to destroy our
democratic republic. Pirro uncovers the elements of this conspiracy, including "fake news" propaganda, law
enforcement corruption at the highest levels, and felonious national security leaks by members of the
intelligence community. She exposes bureaucratic resistance to lawful and constitutional executive orders
issued by the duly‐elected president and crooked deals with foreign governments by U.S. officials sworn to
defend our Constitution. It's about time the American public knows the truth about the plot to bring down the
Trump presidency.

Civil War battlefields then & now / James Campi Jr.
Although more than 140 years have passed since Confederate guns first fired on Fort Sumter, our fascination
with the American Civil War has not faded. With the advent of photography, the Civil War was the first time
images captured the devastation of war in all of its brutal truth. Now you can see the infamous battlefields of
the Civil War as they were then ‐‐ and how they are today ‐‐ in Civil War Battlefields Then and Now. Witness
the unfolding of the greatest conflict in U.S. history through archival images, many of which were taken by
Mathew Brady, the most celebrated photographer of the day. This book pairs archival photos with
contemporary images of the Civil War’s most hallowed locations, like Fort Sumter, S.C. where the Confederate
Stars and Bars flag was first unfurled after a siege. Explore some of the bloodiest battlefields, including
Manassas, Harpers Ferry, Fredericksburg, Bull Run and other sacred ground. Visit Old Hagerstown Pike and
Bloody Lane in Antietam, Maryland, site of the bloodiest day in American history. Striking images of the
casualties are shocking even today.

at a Fortune 500 company or a local community group, or an intern or a CEO. Anyone can spark change if they

a clear vision, inspire supporters, persuade decision makers, navigate criticism, and more. She pairs her own

experience as a startup founder, tech executive, and social change leader with powerful stories of movement
leaders from both business and activism. Our world needs movement starters more than ever.

That's what she said : what men need to know (and women need to tell them) about working together /
Joanne Lipman.
A recent Harvard study found that corporate "diversity training" has actually made the gender gap worse ‐‐ in
part because it makes men feel demonized. Women, meanwhile, have been told that closing the gender gap is
up to them: they need to speak up, to be more confident, to demand to be paid what they're worth. They
discuss these issues amongst themselves all the time. What they don't do is talk to men about it. It's time to
end that disconnect. More people in leadership roles are genuinely trying to transform the way we work
together, because there's abundant evidence that companies with more women in senior leadership perform
better by virtually every measure. Yet despite good intentions, men often lack the tools they need, leading to
fumbles, missteps, frustration and misunderstanding that continue to inflict real and lasting damage on
women's careers. Filled with anecdotes, data from the most recent studies, and stories from her own journey
to the top of a male‐dominated industry, Joanne Lipman shows how we can win by reaching across the gender
divide.

The high cost of good intentions : a history of U.S. federal entitlement programs / John F. Cogan.
Federal entitlement programs are strewn throughout the pages of U.S. history, springing from the noble
purpose of assisting people who are destitute through no fault of their own. Yet as federal entitlement
programs have grown, so too have their inefficiency and their cost. Neither tax revenues nor revenues
generated by the national economy have been able to keep pace with their rising growth, bringing the national
debt to a record peace‐time level. The High Cost of Good Intentions is a history of these federal entitlement
programs. Combining economics, history, political science, and law, John F. Cogan reveals how the creation of
entitlements brings forth a steady march of liberalizing forces that cause entitlement programs to expand. In
this process ‐‐ as visible in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries as in the present day ‐‐ each benefit
expansion establishes a new base for future expansions and the entitlement ultimately spreads to a point
where the program's original noble purposes are no longer recognizable. His work provides a unifying
explanation for the evolutionary path that nearly all federal entitlement programs have followed over the past
two hundred years, tracing both their shared past and the financial risks they pose for future generations.

Holding the net : caring for my mother on the tightrope of aging / Melanie P. Merriman ; with a foreword by
Ann Hood.
When her father dies, Melanie Merriman commits herself to making the rest of her mother's life the best it can
be. She brings knowledge to the situation ‐‐ as a hospice consultant, she has studied aging, illness, and the
intricacies of the healthcare system ‐‐ and she has a sister who is willing to help. But even with these
advantages, Melanie finds the real‐life experience of caring for her mother humbling. Every decision becomes
a tug of war, with Mom on one side, fighting for her independence, and the two sisters on the other, trying to
keep her safe. A win for either side suddenly feels like a loss for all. Written for people who have cared for a
parent, are currently facing that challenge, or are aging parents themselves, Holding the Net offers practical
details about the effects of aging on the body and mind, living arrangements for older people, health care
decisions, and surviving rehab. It also challenges the notion that anyone can be an expert when it comes to
caring for an aging parent, and encourages us to simply do our best.

The death of truth : notes on falsehood in the age of Trump / Michiko Kakutani.
We live in a time when the very idea of objective truth is mocked and discounted by the occupants of the
White House. Discredited conspiracy theories and ideologies have resurfaced, proven science is once more up
for debate, and Russian propaganda floods our screens. The wisdom of the crowd has usurped research and
expertise, and we are each left clinging to the beliefs that best confirm our biases. How did truth become an
endangered species in contemporary America? Former New York Times critic Michiko Kakutani takes a

penetrating look at the cultural forces that contributed to this gathering storm. In social media and literature,
television, academia, and politics, Kakutani identifies the trends ‐‐ originating on both the right and the left ‐‐
that have combined to elevate subjectivity over factuality, science, and common values. And she returns us to
the words of the great critics of authoritarianism, writers like George Orwell and Hannah Arendt, whose work
is newly and eerily relevant.

Broke and patriotic : why poor Americans love their country / Francesco Duina.
Why are poor Americans so patriotic? They have significantly worse social benefits compared to other Western
nations, and studies show that the American Dream of upward mobility is, for them, largely a myth. So why do
they love their country? Why not rise up to demand more from a system that is failing them? In Broke and
Patriotic, Francesco Duina contends that the best way to answer these questions is to speak directly to
America's most impoverished. Spending time in bus stations, Laudromats, senior citizen centers, homeless
shelters, public libraries, and fast food restaurants, Duina conducted over sixty revealing interviews in which
the people he met explain how they view themselves and their country. He weaves their words into three
narratives. First, America's poor still see their country as the "last hope" for themselves and the world: America
offers its people a sense of dignity, closeness to God, and answers to most of humanity's problems. Second,
America is still the "land of milk and honey": a very rich and generous country where those who work hard can
succeed. Third, America is the freest country on earth where self‐determination is still possible. This book
offers a portrait of the people left behind by their country and left out of the national conversation. By giving
them a voice, Duina sheds new light on a sector of American society that we are only beginning to recognize as
a powerful force in shaping the country's future.

Reimagining journalism in a post‐truth world : how late‐night comedians, Internet trolls, and savvy reporters
are transforming news / Ed Madison and Ben DeJarnette ; foreword by Frank Sesno.
The 2016 U.S. presidential election delivered a stunning result, but the news media's breathless coverage of it
was no surprise. News networks turned debates into primetime entertainment, reporters spent more time
covering poll results than public policy issues, and the cozy relationship between journalists and political
insiders helped ensure intrigue and ratings, even as it eroded journalism's role as democracy's "Fourth Estate."
Against this sobering backdrop, a broadcast news veteran and a millennial newshound consider how
journalism can regain the public's trust by learning from pioneers both within and beyond the profession.
Connecting the dots between faux news, "fake news," and real news, coauthors Madison and DeJarnette
provide an analysis of where mainstream journalism went wrong ‐‐ and what the next generation of reporters

can do to make it right. The significance of Donald Trump's presidency is not lost on the authors, but
Reimagining Journalism in a Post‐Truth World is not a post‐mortem of the 2016 presidential election, nor is it a
how‐to guide for reporting on Trump's White House. Instead, this book offers a broader perspective on
contemporary journalism, pairing anecdotes with analysis of long‐term trends and challenges. Drawing on
their expertise in media innovation and entrepreneurship, the authors explore how comedians like John Oliver,
Trevor Noah, and Samantha Bee are breaking (and reshaping) the rules of political journalism; how legacy
media outlets like The Boston Globe, The Washington Post, and The New York Times are retooling for the
digital age; and how newcomers like Vice, Hearken, and De Correspondent are innovating new models for
reporting and storytelling.

Food matters : a guide to conscious eating with more than 75 recipes / Mark Bittman.
We are finally starting to acknowledge the threat carbon emissions pose to our ozone layer, but few people
have focused on the extent to which our consumption of meat contributes to global warming. Think about it
this way: In terms of energy consumption, serving a typical family‐of‐four steak dinner is the rough equivalent
of driving around in an SUV for three hours while leaving all the lights on at home. Bittman offers a no‐
nonsense rundown on how government policy, big business marketing, and global economics influence what
we choose to put on the table each evening. He demystifies buzzwords like organic, sustainable, and local, and
offers straightforward, budget‐conscious advice that will help you make small changes that will shrink your
carbon footprint ‐‐ and your waistline. The plan is based on hard science but gives you plenty of leeway to
tailor your food choices to your lifestyle, schedule, and level of commitment. Bittman, a food writer who loves
to eat and eats out frequently, lost thirty‐five pounds and saw marked improvement in his blood levels by
simply cutting meat and processed foods out of two of his three daily meals. But the simple truth, as he points
out, is that as long as you eat more vegetables and whole grains, the result will be better health for you and for
the world in which we live. Unlike most things that are virtuous and healthful, Bittman's plan doesn't involve
sacrifice. From Spinach and Sweet Potato Salad with Warm Bacon Dressing to Breakfast Bread Pudding, the
recipes in Food Matters are flavorful and sophisticated. A month's worth of meal plans shows you how Bittman
chooses to eat and offers proof of how satisfying a mindful and responsible diet can be.

Uniquely normal : tapping the reservoir of normalcy to treat autism / Robert J. Bernstein with Robin Cantor‐
Cooke ; foreword by Dr. Temple Grandin.
Robert J. Bernstein has found a different approach based on cognition thinking in helping people of all ages
with ASD. His goal is for people with ASD to be able to live in the world and connect with the people in it as
themselves, to express their unique humanity and engage more fully in the human interactions that give life
meaning and make it worth the effort of getting out of bed every day. Bernstein believes that whatever he
does therapeutically must be on the ASD individual's terms; he or she must lead.

From hardtack to home fries : an uncommon history of American cooks and meals / Barbara Haber.
Culinary historian Barbara Haber takes a unique approach to the history of cooking in America, focusing on an
assembly of little‐known or forgotten Americans who helped shape the eating habits of the nation. As Curator
of Books at Harvard University's Schlesinger Library, Haber has access to more than 16,000 cookbooks from
which she has drawn cooking stories from the 1840s to the present: a Confederate Jewish woman's ancestral
chicken soup which helped improve institutional food overall; the well‐groomed, upright "Harvey Girl"
waitresses who helped civilize America's western frontier; and the Graham Cracker, which was created by a
fanatic Seventh‐Day Adventist trying to curb sexual appetites. With recipes throughout, Haber's survey adds a
delicious new dimension to America's cultural heritage.

The American cookbook : a history / Carol Fisher.
When colonists arrived in America, their knowledge of cooking sometimes had little in common with available
ingredients. Eventually they adapted recipes from the old country for use with native foods and cooking
methods. The resulting infusion nourished an enthusiasm for cookbooks, as cooks from all walks of life

recorded and exchanged old and new recipes. This book serves up the American cookbook as a tasty sampler
of history, geography and culture, revealing the influence of political events (e.g. wartime rationing), social
movements (temperance), and technological change (new packaging and cooking methods).

In the summer of 1951, Miranda Schuyler arrives on elite, secretive Winthrop Island as a schoolgirl from the
margins of high society, still reeling from the loss of her father in the Second World War. When her beautiful
mother marries Hugh Fisher, whose summer house on Winthrop overlooks the famous lighthouse, Miranda is
catapulted into a heady new world of pedigrees and cocktails, status and swimming pools. Isobel Fisher,

Miranda's new stepsister ‐‐ all long legs and world‐weary bravado, engaged to a wealthy Island scion ‐‐ is eager
to draw Miranda into the arcane customs of Winthrop society. But beneath the island's patrician surface, there
are really two clans: the summer families with their steadfast ways and quiet obsessions, and the working class
of Portuguese fishermen and domestic workers who earn their living on the water and in the laundries of the
summer houses. Uneasy among Isobel's privileged friends, Miranda finds herself drawn to Joseph Vargas,
whose father keeps the lighthouse with his mysterious wife. In summer, Joseph helps his father in the lobster
boats, but in the autumn he returns to Brown University, where he's determined to make something of
himself. Since childhood, Joseph has enjoyed an intense, complex friendship with Isobel Fisher, and as the
summer winds to its end, Miranda is caught in a catastrophe that will shatter Winthrop's hard‐won tranquility
and banish Miranda from the island for nearly two decades. Now, in the landmark summer of 1969, Miranda
returns at last, as a renowned Shakespearean actress hiding a terrible heartbreak. On its surface, the Island
remains the same ‐‐ determined to keep the outside world from its shores, fiercely loyal to those who belong.
But the formerly powerful Fisher family is a shadow of itself, and Joseph Vargas has recently escaped the
prison where he was incarcerated for the murder of Miranda's stepfather eighteen years earlier. Miranda
herself is no longer a naïve teenager, and she begins a fierce, inexorable quest for justice for the man she once
loved ... even if it means uncovering every last one of the secrets that bind together the families of Winthrop
Island.
