Описание: From the critically acclaimed author of The Borden Murders comes the thrilling story of Mary Surratt, the first woman to be executed by the US government, for her alleged involvement in the plot to assassinate Abraham Lincoln. A dubious distinction belongs to Mary Surratt: on July 7, 1865, she became the first woman to be executed by the United States government, accused of conspiring in the plot to assassinate not only President Abraham Lincoln, but also the vice president, the secretary of state, and General Grant. Mary Surratt was a widow, a Catholic, a businesswoman, a slave owner, a Union resident, and the mother of a Confederate Secret Service courier. As the proprietor of the boardinghouse where John Wilkes Booth and his allies are known to have gathered, Mary Surratt was widely believed, as President Andrew Johnson famously put it, to have "kept the nest that hatched the egg." But did Mrs. Surratt truly commit treason by aiding and abetting Booth in his plot to murder the president? Or was she the victim of a spectacularly cruel coincidence? Here is YA nonfiction at its best--gripping, thought-provoking, and unputdownable.

Описание: Two amateur photographers were in the right place at the right time. While Denali National Park is often smothered with clouds and drenched with rain in August, a climatological anomaly placed a narrow ridge of dry warm air across the state of Alaska, bringing clear, mist-free air to the mountains. On a flight-seeing tour of a lifetime, Mary Linda Miller and Carmelo Monti captured in an hour sunlit views that might otherwise require numerous trips to see. From the Talkeetna River to Mount McKinley, with two cameras facing in opposite directions, their images reveal vast expanses of boreal forest, marshes, streams and lakes; glaciers of every size and shape, from origins to terminus; and worn-smooth foothills rising to the crescendo of the tallest snowcapped peaks in North America. "An Hour Over Denali" contains a collection of 75 time-stamped aerial photographs taken on August 11, 2011 during a flight-seeing tour over Denali National Park and Denali State Park; an introduction that describes the process in greater detail; a map that defines the flight-seeing route; and descriptions of the photos that tie them to their locations.

Описание: Mary Miller seizes the mantle of southern literature with this wry tale of middle age and the unexpected turns a life can take. Like her predecessors Ann Beattie and Raymond Carver, Mary Miller brings an essential voice to her generation. Building on her critically acclaimed novel, The Last Days of California, and her biting collection, Always Happy Hour, Miller slyly transports listeners to her unapologetic corner of the South-this time, Biloxi, Mississippi, home to sixty-three-year-old Louis McDonald Jr. His wife of thirty-seven years left him, his father has passed-and he has impulsively retired from his job in anticipation of an inheritance check that may not come. In the meantime, he watches reality television, sips beer, and avoids his ex-wife and daughter. One day, he stops at a house advertising free dogs and meets overweight mixed-breed Layla. Unexpectedly, Louis takes her, and, newly invigorated, begins investigating local dog parks and buying extra bologna. Mining the absurdities of life with her signature �droll minimalist's-eye view of America� (Joyce Carol Oates), Mary Miller's Biloxi affirms her place in contemporary literature.
