Book Description
A letter from America, crafted by a pair of beloved aunts, is sent overseas to relatives in Avellino, Italy. Addressed to the parents of three teenage girls, it implores them to send their daughters to the maiden aunts, for it is only in America where opportunity knocks on every door. The girls leave for America filled with dreams, but their dreams shatter after a startling realization. Can they escape misery and poverty and ultimately find joy? Find out as the three sisters carve out their destinies in American Music. The story opens in 1906 as three teenage sisters are greeted by a pair of beloved aunts on a New York City pier. The sisters soon discover their aunts' deceitful reasons for calling them to America. The eldest sister rebels and attempts an escape late one night. On the fire escape, she encounters a beautiful man, a neighbor from the tenement apartment, one flight above. After she reveals the facts of her troubled experience, she accepts his proposal of marriage. The Angenetti family settles and takes root in the slums on the Lower East Side. The head of the household takes number bets for a living, and admits to being a small fish in the syndicate's big pond. As the illicit business grows, so does the family - along with chaos and crime. Chaos increases within the household as gamblers traipse in and out the kitchen to place bets. The family keeps on the move, one step ahead of the cops. The first-born son plays with matches under the third-born infant's crib; the child is left with a claw-like hand. The family's chaotic way of life is taken as matter-of-fact.

Book Description
The study of the reciprocal relationship between the Bible and popular culture has blossomed in the past few decades, and the time seems ripe for a broadly-conceived work that assesses the current state of the field, offers examples of work in that field, and suggests future directions for further study. This Handbook includes a wide range of topics organized under several broad themes, including biblical characters (such as Adam, Eve, David and Jesus) and themes (like Creation, Hell, and Apocalyptic) in popular culture; the Bible in popular cultural genres (for example, film, comics, and Jazz); and "lived" examples (such as museums and theme parks). The Handbook concludes with a section taking stock of methodologies and the impact of the field on teaching and publishing. The Oxford Handbook of the Bible and American Popular Culture represents a major contribution to the field by some of its leading practitioners, and will be a key resource for the future development of the study of both the Bible and its role in American popular culture.

Book Description
Without the support of American women, victory in the Revolutionary War would not have been possible. They followed the Continental Army, handling a range of jobs that were usually performed by men. On the orders of General Washington, some were hired as nurses for $2 per month and one full ration per day--disease was rampant and nurse mortality was high. A few served with artillery units or masqueraded as men to fight in the ranks. The author focuses on the many key roles women filled in the struggle for independence, from farming to making saltpeter to spying.

Book Description
A New York Times Notable Book The shocking truth about postwar adoption in America, told through the bittersweet story of one teenager, the son she was forced to relinquish, and their search to find each other. “[T]his book about the past might foreshadow a coming shift in the future… ‘I don’t think any legislators in those states who are anti-abortion are actually thinking, “Oh, great, these single women are gonna raise more children.” No, their hope is that those children will be placed for adoption. But is that the reality? I doubt it.’”[says Glaser]” -Mother Jones During the Baby Boom in 1960s America, women were encouraged to stay home and raise large families, but sex and childbirth were taboo subjects. Premarital sex was common, but birth control was hard to get and abortion was illegal. In 1961, sixteen-year-old Margaret Erle fell in love and became pregnant. Her enraged family sent her to a maternity home, where social workers threatened her with jail until she signed away her parental rights. Her son vanished, his whereabouts and new identity known only to an adoption agency that would never share the slightest detail about his fate. The adoption business was founded on secrecy and lies. American Baby lays out how a lucrative and exploitative industry removed children from their birth mothers and placed them with hopeful families, fabricating stories about infants' origins and destinations, then closing the door firmly between the parties forever. Adoption agencies and other organizations that purported to help pregnant women struck unethical deals with doctors and researchers for pseudoscientific "assessments," and shamed millions of women into surrendering their children. The identities of many who were adopted or who surrendered a child in the postwar decades are still locked in sealed files. Gabrielle Glaser dramatically illustrates in Margaret and David’s tale--one they share with millions of Americans—a story of loss, love, and the search for identity.
