A matchless account of the Battle of Gettysburg, drawn from Shelby Foote’s landmark history of the Civil War Shelby Foote’s monumental three-part chronicle, The Civil War: A Narrative, was hailed by Walker Percy as “an unparalleled achievement, an American Iliad, a unique work uniting the scholarship of the historian and the high readability of the first-class novelist.” Here is the central chapter of the central volume, and therefore the capstone of the arch, in a single volume. Complete with detailed maps, Stars in Their Courses brilliantly recreates the three-day conflict: It is a masterly treatment of a key great battle and the events that preceded it—not as legend has it but as it really was, before it became distorted by controversy and overblown by remembered glory.

In this second book of the Jezebel trilogy, Tamar pursues a medical education, only to discover that her skills are in greater demand on the battlefield than in the birthing room. Elijah inadvertently engineers a massacre, thereby becoming the most wanted criminal in Israel. Bez, whom we first met as a palace guard, finds success as an artist but not in love. Jezebel herself, now Queen of Israel, discovers the joys and travails of motherhood. When her husband leads his troops to war, she learns to take the reins of power. Our characters' lives entwine and come unraveled, but eventually these four must join forces against Assyria--the mightiest and cruelest empire in the ancient world.

Excerpt from The Stars in Their Courses In giving a course of recent wireless talks, I assumed that my listeners had no previous scientific knowledge of any kind, and tried to introduce them to the fas cination of modern astronomy and to the wonder of the universe we see through the giant telescopes of to-day. The present book contains these talks expanded to double their original length, still in the informal con versational style and simple non-technical language of wireless talks. It is totally unambitious, aiming only at providing an easy, readable and not over serious introduction to the most poetical of the sciences.

Twelve-year-old Mattie wrestles with her crush on Gemma as they participate in their school production of Romeo and Juliet in what School Library Journal calls “a fine choice for middle school libraries in need of an accessible LGBTQ stories.” Twelve-year-old Mattie is thrilled when she learns the eighth grade play will be Romeo and Juliet. In particular, she can’t wait to share the stage with Gemma Braithwaite, who has been cast as Juliet. Gemma is brilliant, pretty—and British!—and Mattie starts to see her as more than just a friend. But Mattie has also had an on/off crush on her classmate Elijah since, well, forever. Is it possible to have a crush on both boys AND girls? If that wasn’t enough to deal with, things offstage are beginning to resemble their own Shakespearean drama: the cast is fighting, and the boy playing Romeo may not be up to the challenge of the role. And due to a last-minute emergency, Mattie is asked to step up and take over the leading role—opposite Gemma’s Juliet—just as Mattie’s secret crush starts to become not-so-secret in her group of friends. In this funny, sweet, and clever look at the complicated nature of middle school romance, Mattie learns how to become a lead player in her own life.
