The McCollum Memorandum: A Story of Washington, D.C. in 1940-41, is the most accurate and complete account yet published about how the United States truly entered the Second World War. It is the story of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's gradual journey from deterrence to provocation---from October 7, 1940 through December 11, 1941---on America's road to Pearl Harbor. The author utilizes official memoranda, state documents, the diary entries and sworn testimony of the principal actors in the story, and the documented results of the remarkable American and British codebreaking efforts in 1940 and 1941, to tell the dramatic story. In numerous scenes reminiscent of the best historical novels, the inner thoughts and private conversations of many of the key historical figures of the day are presented as dramatic reenactments, based faithfully on the hard kernels of truth in the documentary record.

Inspired by a real-life incident, this riveting novel explores the dangerous impact discrimination and antisemitism have on one community when a school assignment goes terribly wrong. Would you defend the indefensible? That's what seniors Logan March and Cade Crawford are asked to do when a favorite teacher instructs a group of students to argue for the Final Solution--the Nazi plan for the genocide of the Jewish people. Logan and Cade decide they must take a stand, and soon their actions draw the attention of the student body, the administration, and the community at large. But not everyone feels as Logan and Cade do--after all, isn't a school debate just a school debate? It's not long before the situation explodes, and acrimony and anger result. Based on true events, The Assignment asks: What does it take for tolerance, justice, and love to prevail? "An important look at a critical moment in history through a modern lens showcasing the power of student activism." --SLJ
