The Work We Do
Musical accompaniment: Risque by Los Españoles Even with the Internet, Americans know very little about each other’s lives. With the size of the United States, you’d think the biggest differences between Americans would be geographic. But in my opinion, the real differences are in the work we do and whether we live in an … Continue reading The Work We Do

| An excellent biography of Abraham Lincoln. Carnegie offered some unique insight into how the tragedies in Lincoln’s life (most notably his unhappy marriage) uniquely prepared him to guide the United States through the war. | |

Cold Heart: The Great Unsolved Mystery of Turn of the Century Buffalo:
"Albeit a century later, for six years of my life, I lived on the 100 block of Ashland Avenue. Yet, I was unfamiliar with this story. The book reads as a fascinating who-done-it, well researched with citations. Only for the references to my old stompi"

"I found this book interesting even though it was an unsolved murder case in 1902. The author did a good job piecing a story together based on her research of the case. It became a constant reminder how much has changed in forensics past to present an"

Another excellent book by Gojan Nikolich! No other writer conveys the grittiness of life so well. He has a gift for parsing the thoughts of characters who are nearly always on the fringes of society: in this case a soldier. The story weaves together t ...more |

“Why were you anxious to be divorced from your husband?” the DA demanded.
“I had no love for him,” Alice replied.”

“When he looked in the mirror, he was startled by his physical transformation. In just a few years, his face had lost its healthy glow, and his strength had faded, leaving a pale, bloated, trembling version of himself behind that he did not recognize. The tired, bloodshot eyes in the mirror glared back at him. He would go to the Keeley Institute to cure his drinking habit while he was still able to salvage his family and himself.”

“His voice was so faint that it was audible only to those in the first rows. “I haven’t got much to say, only that I am an innocent man,” the prisoner said softly. “If they say I’m guilty, I reckon I’ll have to suffer and it’s all right.”

“The gentleness in question was not explicitly stated, but readers could be forgiven for thinking Booher’s prosecution was weak and listless and that he had pursued it with all the ferociousness of a bunny rabbit.”

“Scarcely a day went by without Edwards starting a fight or challenging a guard or refusing to cooperate in some way. The officers tried increasingly harsh discipline but to no avail.
