The Lost King
"The Lost King" is a historical fiction novel by Rafael Sabatini. The story gives life to old legends about Louis XVII. He was the son of King Louis XVI of France and Queen Marie Antoinette. The official history tells that Louis was kept in prison at the time of his parents' execution and died there at the age of ten. Yet, the legends tell that he escaped to foreign lands where he lived to old age. In Sabatini's version, Louis escaped to Switzerland, from where he plotted his triumphant return to claim the throne of France. A great story for the fans of historical suspense and adventure.

Seeds of Pine
'Seeds of Pine' is an adventure novel written during the Settlers era by Janey Canuck, a penname of Emily Murphy. Written in first-person, it tells the story of a female homesteader in Canada. She is not particularly content with her life and the place she finds herself in as can be seen from her thoughts on the matter: "The new steel trail the railway men are laying from Edmonton leads away and away, I cannot say whither. For these many days I have had an anxious desire to follow it and the glories thereof. I am tired of this town and of the electrical devices that appear and re-appear in the darkness like eyes that open and shut—wicked eyes that burn their commercial message into my very soul. I am sick of these saucy, swaggering streets and of sundry of the townspeople. Come you with me and let us travel down the ways through the heart of the summer! We shall have breeze and sun in our eyes, and breeze and sun in our hearts. If you like not the prospect, pray, come no further, for we be contrary the one to the other and no way-fellows."
Miss Dior
Miss Dior is a wartime story of freedom and fascism, beauty and betrayal and 'a gripping story' (Antonia Fraser). 'Exceptional . . . Miss Dior is so much more than a biography.

Justine Picardie's journey takes her to wartime Paris, where Christian honed his couture skills while Catherine dedicated herself to the French Resistance and th...
Dangerous Masculinity
For incarcerated fathers, prison rather than work mediates access to their families. Prison rules and staff regulate phone privileges, access to writing materials, and visits. Perhaps even more important are the ways in which the penal system shapes men’s gender performances. Incarcerated men must negotiate how they will enact violence and aggression, both in terms of the expectations placed upon inmates by the prison system and in terms of their own responses to these expectations. Additionally, the relationships between incarcerated men and the mothers of their children change, particularly since women now serve as “gatekeepers” who control when and how they contact their children. This book considers how those within the prison system negotiate their expectations about “real” men and “good” fathers, how prisoners negotiate their relationships with those outside of prison, and in what ways this negotiation reflects their understanding of masculinity.
