THE SOLOIST: A NAZI COLLABORATOR'S DEADLY MISSION AGAINST THE CITY OF NEW YORK
He's a warrior, a Finnish special forces soldier, who cut down scores of enemy troops while operating on his own behind Red Army lines during the Soviet invasion of his homeland in 1939. After that, he joined a Waffen SS brigade so that he could personally wage war deep inside Russia. Now in December of 1944, he is in Manhattan, sent by Nazi Germany to pave the way for an operation, which, if successful, will claim the lives of tens of thousands of Americans. While Germany's purpose for the mass killing of civilians on American soil at this late point in the war is to leverage the Roosevelt Government into a truce aimed at holding off further Allied advances into Western Europe after Normandy, the battle-hardened Finn is privately on a mission of his own. Driven by hatred of the United States for what he views as it ongoing support of efforts to crush Finland and bring it under Soviet control, he devises a murderous retaliatory plan, and once settled in New York, secretly sets out to implement it. In doing so, he uses his skills as a solo operator to adapt to a menacing environment, evade the FBI, and brutally eliminate anyone seen as an obstacle to his violent objective.

Opening the Gates
In the Summer of 1973, workers occupied the Lip watch and clock factory, sparking a national cause and controversy. The Lip occupation and self-management experience captured the imagination of the Left in France and internationally, as a living example of the spirit of May '68. In Opening the Gates, Donald Reid chronicles the history of this struggle. Beginning with the early stirrings of worker radicalism in 1968, Reid's meticulously researched narrative details the nationally publicised conflict of 1973, the second bankruptcy and occupation of 1976 and the conversion of Lip into a group of cooperatives operating into the 1980s.

Lincoln on Race and Slavery
From acclaimed scholar Henry Louis Gates, Jr., the most comprehensive collection of Lincoln's writings on race and slavery Generations of Americans have debated the meaning of Abraham Lincoln's views on race and slavery. He issued the Emancipation Proclamation and supported a constitutional amendment to outlaw slavery, yet he also harbored grave doubts about the intellectual capacity of African Americans, publicly used the n-word until at least 1862, and favored permanent racial segregation. In this book—the first complete collection of Lincoln's important writings on both race and slavery—readers can explore these contradictions through Lincoln's own words. Acclaimed Harvard scholar and...
Ritchie Mined - Volume I
Short summaries of 3,026 essays by Bill H. Ritchie, artist, teacher and visionary drawn from his journals written between 1969 - 2009.

Or, using freely chosen keywords of their own, find the articles which have those words in them.
