Book Description
Liberty Epic of Shadows interweaves shades of the past, present, and future into a dynamic tapestry designed on global scale that spans centuries through a trail of human history beginning with the discovery of a New World. What is the connection between the rebirth of the Holy Roman Empire during the dynastic reign of the Spanish Hapsburgs and a small cotton mill town in twentieth century post industrial south? What is the lost meaning of Xeantee Aconee left behind by an obscure North American tribe of Indians and a present day monster named Westbaily? Are both fiendish embodiments of imminent judgment or messenger angels of deliverance? To the locals of 1960 Viet Nam era America, Liberty Swamp is a place laced with unknown dangers, manifesting imagined terror of life's inevitability, a place avoided through slumbered existence. But this epic is not just about fallen dynasties, repetitious wars, or chimeras of shadow. It weaves the mortal fabric of human experience into a lattice of concentric patterns that never really change. It unveils the defined origin of evil in human desire by comparing gifts from Mammon forged of weaker elements to the essence of things made from eternal substance provided by the architect of creation in the fullness of every season. At the twilight of his days, a man named David, reluctantly made a king of Israel, stands humble before the twelve tribes. This after the siege of Jesus, declared Jerusalem, a city dedicated to the God of Covenant, he bows his head and blesses the Lord of heaven and earth: "Both riches and honor come of thee, and thou reigns over all; and in your hand is power and might; and in your hand it is to make great, and to give strength unto all. Now therefore, our God, we thank thee, and praise thy glorious name. But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to offer so willingly after this sort? For all things come from you and of your own have we given thee. For we are strangers before thee, and sojourners, as were all our fathers: our days on the earth are as a shadow, and there is none abiding." 1 chronicles chapter 29 Verses 12-15

Book Description
Did you know that many of America’s Founding Fathers—who fought for liberty and justice for all—were slave owners? Through the powerful stories of five enslaved people who were “owned” by four of our greatest presidents, this book helps set the record straight about the role slavery played in the founding of America. From Billy Lee, valet to George Washington, to Alfred Jackson, faithful servant of Andrew Jackson, these dramatic narratives explore our country’s great tragedy—that a nation “conceived in liberty” was also born in shackles. These stories help us know the real people who were essential to the birth of this nation but traditionally have been left out of the history books. Their stories are true—and they should be heard. This thoroughly-researched and documented book can be worked into multiple aspects of the common core curriculum.

Book Description
From the award–winning author of The Lie Tree, “a delicious combination of historical adventure, coming-of-age tale, and supernatural intrigue” (Publishers Weekly, starred review). Sometimes, when a person dies, their spirit goes looking for somewhere to hide. Some people have space within them, perfect for hiding Young Makepeace has learned to defend herself from the ghosts that try to possess her in the night, desperate for refuge, but one day a dreadful event causes her to drop her guard. And now there’s a spirit inside her. The spirit is wild, brutish, and strong, and it may be her only defense when she is sent to live with her father’s rich and powerful family. There is talk of civil war, and they need people like her to protect their dark and terrible family secret. But as she plans to escape and heads out into a country torn apart by war, Makepeace must decide which is worse: possession—or death. “Darkly splendid . . . a wonderful, resonant narrative whose subtlety and insight will challenge, entertain and enchant.” —The Guardian “A Skinful of Shadows is outlandishly creative and thoroughly blood-chilling. Her storytelling is visceral and unfurls at an exciting pace, making this novel a wonderful, weird and terrifying addition to her body of work.” —Shelf Awareness (starred review) “A book that only Hardinge could write . . . [a] masterful and spooky historical fantasy.” —School Library Journal (starred review) “Hardinge’s writing is stunning, and readers will be taken hostage by its intensity, fascinating developments, and the fierce, compassionate girl leading the charge.” —Booklist (starred review) “Deliberate, impeccable, and extraordinary.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
