When Harriet Tubman crossed the line to freedom in Pennsylvania, she left behind her home in Maryland, along with a life of enslavement. Her native land made Tubman the person she became to history: Underground Railroad conductor, Civil War scout and nurse, suffragist and advocate for the aged and disabled. Authors Phillip Hesser and Charlie Ewers explore the landscape of Tubman's life, from the slave quarters to the churches to the marshes and fields where she worked. Travel to nineteenth-century Dorchester County and search for the places that Harriet Tubman would never know again--some of them now lost to sinking lands and rising waters--back cover.

Anita Berber (1899-1928) and Sebastian Droste (1892-1927) were the most notorious dancers of Weimar Germany whose works (like their personal lives) were suffused with drugs, decadence and polysexuality. This rare book ... has its origins around a series of dance events performed by the couple in 1922 and consists in part of a number of Expressionist poems related to those evenings ... [and] includes essays, stage designs for projected works and a series of extraordinary photographs commissioned from Madame D'Ora (Dora Kalmus). The finished product should be seen as much as decadent literature as it is a landmark text of dance history and document of Weimar period excess ... --from publisher's web site.
