Education Empire
Despite the fact that more than one-half of the students in the United States are educated in suburban schools, relatively little is known about the development of suburban school systems. Education Empire chronicles the evolution of Virginia's Fairfax County public schools, the twelfth largest school system in the country and arguably one of the very best. The book focuses on how Fairfax has addressed a variety of challenges, beginning with explosive enrollment growth in the 1950s and continuing with desegregation, enrollment decline, economic uncertainty, demands for special programs, and intense politicization. Today, Fairfax, like many suburbs across the country, looks increasingly like an urban school system, with rising poverty, large numbers of recent immigrants, and constant pressure from an assortment of special interest groups. While many school systems facing similar developments have experienced a drop in performance, Fairfax students continue to raise their achievement. Daniel L. Duke reveals the keys to Fairfax's remarkable track record.

Taking Back Sunday
Losing his wife to breast cancer after 50 years of marriage, forces Phil to seek an answer to a question. Did he and his wife Terry have a real marriage, or was it more of a charade? Did they endure all those years together in quiet desperation, or was it as a friend once said, "You and Terry had a 50 year love affair and never knew it." Travel with Phil and his family as they ride over roads that were straight, narrow with sharp curves, and at other times unpaved with potholes and detours. Phil candidly shares the personal joys and sorrows of his life with Terry in an attempt to relinquish his own feeling of guilt, remorse, and loneliness. Taking Back Sunday is his permission slip to let go just as he gave the same permission slip to his wife moments before her death.
