Even as the ink began to dry on the Declaration of Independence proclaiming a break from the tyranny of European-style... More > government, a faction began plotting to re-forge the chains and re-establish Europe in the new world.
When Thomas Paine returned to the United States in 1802 after a decade and a half abroad, he saw the leftover effects of a presidential administration who didn't trust the people to exercise the blessings of liberty appropriately. And so he wrote a series of eight letters, seven of them in fairly quick succession, with his thoughts about revolution, liberty and the state of the young nation he helped create. These letters remain relevant to this day. < Less |

It takes a special story to capture the imagination so well that readers are still enthralled after a century or two. Here... More > are six of them.
Editor Warren Bluhm has compiled a half-dozen of the best page-turners in literature, from names you might have caught a time or two before like Edgar Allen Poe and Robert Louis Stevenson. Poe's "The Cask of Amontillado" is a matter-of-fact tale told by a fellow who'd had enough and decided to bury a (presumably) former friend alive behind a brick wall. Nathaniel Hawthorne's "Rappaccini's Daughter" is about a man who builds himself, well, a daughter. "The Turn of the Screw" is a ghost (?) story that leaves readers guessing 100+ years after Henry James wrote it. Anchored by "Frankenstein" and "Doctor Jekyll and Mr. Hyde," 6 monsters is a lovely little pile of classics. < Less |

A Little Volume of Secrets

All self-help books seem to come down to a few basic truths, such as: Know where you want to be, set a goal to get there,... More > and act on the goal.
The three short books compiled in this volume — "As A Man Thinketh," "Acres of Diamonds" and "The Science of Growing Rich" — tap into these basic truths in ways that have inspired generations. That they are short books — this compilation of all three fills fewer than 175 pages — is testimony to the fact that they are simple, basic truths. But coming to grips with these truths and acting on them can be life-changing. < Less |
