Book Description
Like other fictional characters, female sleuths may live in the past or the future. They may represent current times with some level of reality or shape their settings to suit an agenda. There are audiences for both realism and escapism in the mystery novel. It is interesting, however, to compare the fictional world of the mystery sleuth with the world in which readers live. Of course, mystery readers do not share one simplistic world. They live in urban, suburban, and rural areas, as do the female heroines in the books they read. They may choose a book because it has a familiar background or because it takes them to places they long to visit. Readers may be rich or poor; young or old; conservative or liberal. So are the heroines. What incredible choices there are today in mystery series! This three-volume encyclopedia of women characters in the mystery novel is like a gigantic menu. Like a menu, the descriptions of the items that are provided are subjective. Volume 3 of Mystery Women as currently updated adds an additional 42 sleuths to the 500 plus who were covered in the initial Volume 3. These are more recently discovered sleuths who were introduced during the period from January 1, 1990 to December 31, 1999. This more than doubles the number of sleuths introduced in the 1980s (298 of whom were covered in Volume 2) and easily exceeded the 347 series (and some outstanding individuals) described in Volume 1, which covered a 130-year period from 1860-1979. It also includes updates on those individuals covered in the first edition; changes in status, short reviews of books published since the first edition through December 31, 2008.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Life of Col. John Charles Fremont: And His Narrative of Explorations and Adventures, in Kansas, Nebraska, Oregon and California John Chaeles Fremont was the heir of poverty. His inheritance, however, was the richest of all legacies - "a sound mind in a sound body." The love and care of a widowed mother, and the responsibility, as the eldest of the group, attendant upon the protection and maintenance of an orphaned brother and sister, were the chief means of his early discipline. Though destitute of the adventitious aids of wealth or influential connections, his own sterling qualities were more than a compensation. He possessed, in an eminent degree, what alone constitute the basis of true greatness, and of certain and continuous success vigorous powers of mind and body, entire self-reliance, and persevering application to wisely-chosen pursuits. That he should have risen from a position so humble, by the unaided influence of his own powers, to one so conspicuous as that which he now occupies, is at once a gratifying tribute to his genius and worth, and an example full of encouragement to American youth. In the first great civil contest between freedom and slavery, he has been selected as the standard-bearer of the former.
