Book Description
Spanning one hundred years from 1820 to 1920, the Tyler family impacted the emerging town of Clarksville, Tennessee in ways unimaginable. Memories of this family resurfaced when a single, deplorable theft one summer night in 1996 involved the graveside statue of the daughter of the notable Clarksville Judge Charles Waller Tyler. This beloved little girl had died suddenly at age four from a disease easily prevented today. Public reaction to the theft was so immediate and demonstrative that the story became a national news item. Against all odds, the statue reappeared, hundreds of miles from its origin, to the relief of Clarksville citizens. This is the story of Nannie Tyler, her family, her stolen statue, and the people of a southern town who loved her.

Book Description
Sit. Stay. Roll over. Good Boy. Well, these commands worked for the puppy. Unfortunately, Audrey Graham's new boss was not so easily tamed. After a difficult year, she needed to get back on track, and accepting a job as "dog nanny" for millionaire businessman Simon Collier was the first step. But Simon, like the incorrigible puppy he'd bought for his young daughter, had a mind of his own. He was gorgeous, sexy and got what he wanted—and he wanted Audrey. Simon couldn't stand to see Audrey hurt. He would help her, and then he would have her. And he would show her that not all men were dogs….

Book Description
Soon to be a Netflix series starring Octavia Spencer, On Her Own Ground is the first full-scale biography of “one of the great success stories of American history” (The Philadelphia Inquirer), Madam C.J. Walker—the legendary African American entrepreneur and philanthropist—by her great-great-granddaughter, A’Lelia Bundles. The daughter of formerly enslaved parents, Sarah Breedlove—who would become known as Madam C. J. Walker—was orphaned at seven, married at fourteen, and widowed at twenty. She spent the better part of the next two decades laboring as a washerwoman for $1.50 a week. Then—with the discovery of a revolutionary hair care formula for black women—everything changed. By her death in 1919, Walker managed to overcome astonishing odds: building a storied beauty empire from the ground up, amassing wealth unprecedented among black women, and devoting her life to philanthropy and social activism. Along the way, she formed friendships with great early-twentieth-century political figures such as Ida B. Wells, Mary McLeod Bethune, W.E.B. Du Bois, and Booker T. Washington.
