Description
Lorelei, a young woman living in the early 1920s, decides to keep a diary after receiving a blank journal from a “gentleman friend.” Lorelei has an apartment in New York paid for by a Chicago businessman named Gus Eisman. When he’s in town, Mr. Eisman spends his time “educating” Lorelei by going out to dinner, taking in shows, and then escorting her to her apartment to “talk about the topics of the day until quite late.” When he isn’t in town, Lorelei does much the same with the other men she has charmed.
Joined by her best friend Dorothy, Lorelei embarks on a journey to Europe in order to meet Mr. Eisman and continue her education. As the diary unfolds, we learn more about Lorelei’s past and her cynical, rather mercenary...

Description
Germinal, named after the spring month in the French Republican Calendar, is often considered to be Zola’s masterpiece. The book follows Étienne Lantier, a young man whose career as a railway worker is abruptly cut short after he attacks a superior. He arrives in Montsou, a coal mining town in the north of France, to begin a new life in a different industry. And the only industry around is mining coal.
Étienne quickly befriends the locals as he embraces his new life in the mines, but the abject poverty of the miners shocks him, and he soon begins reading about socialism. When the owners of the mine conspire to lower the miners’ wages, Étienne seizes the opportunity and...

Description
In the mid 1800s, few names could strike as much fear into the hearts of the settlers of the Western U.S. than Geronimo, the famous Apache leader. Born in what was then Mexico, but is now modern New Mexico, he was raised in the Apache tradition. When he was a young man, a group of Mexican soldiers raided his camp, killing his wife and children and instilling in him a lifelong hatred of Mexicans.
Geronimo spent the next years of his life leading raids against his foes the Mexicans, and, once the U.S. annexed Mexican territory at the end of the Mexican-American War, against the new American settlers as well. Only after the U.S. government began forcing Native Americans onto...
