Book Description
After the disaster at Stalingrad, Karlos von Ohr, a Luftwaffe pilot, returns to Berlin to discover that a small group of army officers is secretly plotting not only to bring an end to a losing, stupid war but even to put an end to Hitler. Luckily Karlos is transferred to faraway Romania, where his father is the chief flight instructor for the local air force. The local dictator, Marshal Antonescu, a friend of Hitler, refuses to acknowledge that by the spring of 1943 the Third Reich is everywhere in retreat. In nearby Istanbul Karlos uncle Siegfried runs an art gallery and does a little spying on the side. In that neutral city Karlos contrives to meet a friendly American agent who promises (for a price) to help Karlos defect to the Allied lines in Italy. Of course, Karlos realizes that if he renounces his allegiance to Hitler and goes over to the enemy, he will be denounced as a traitor by his countrymen. He can never go back home to Berlin. Karlos wonders: Am I about to make the worst (and last) mistake of my life?

Book Description
This book tells the story of African Americans' evolving attitudes towards lynching from the 1880s to the present. Unlike most histories of lynching, it explains how African Americans were both purveyors and victims of lynch mob violence and how this dynamic has shaped the meaning of lynching in black culture.

Book Description
"Ward of the State: A Memoir of Foster Care," tells what happened to a little black boy from the inner city of Detroit. This is the story of Karlos Dillard, severely neglected by his mother who often left him and his siblings at home alone for weeks to fend for themselves. Enduring severe neglect and abuse, the boy was removed by the State of Michigan and put into foster care. Karlos was removed from his mother's care just to end up in foster homes that treated him worse. The book is an emotional rollercoaster. Every time Karlos describes the pain he is feeling you will feel the same pain. Whether it be hunger, anger, or being sexually violated. Karlos' use of words makes sure that you aren't just reading the book, you are actually engaged. What is most enticing are the small victories experienced in the story because they give you a break from the horrors of some of the foster homes. Karlos was told he was not loved, he was not wanted and he was nothing but a ward of the State. Karlos had nothing left to look forward to and that almost ended his life, but his hope to find a family that loved him kept him alive.
