  The Murder of Maggie Hume - Cold...

  One brutal murder. Two possible suspects. And a "fascinating . . . puzzling case" that divided a Michigan community (Lansing State Journal). 
   
   
    
  In the summer of 1982, the body of twenty-year-old Maggie Hume was found under a pile of blankets in the closet of her apartment. A Catholic school girl and daughter of a local football coach, Maggie had been raped and strangled. It was the only active murder investigation in Battle Creek, Michigan, suggesting the case would be an easy victory for authorities. Plus, they already had two persons of interest on watch. 
   
   
    
  Maggie's neighbor, Michael Ronning, confessed to the crime. Yet it was Maggie's boyfriend, Jay Carter, who failed the polygraph, and whose account of his whereabouts on the night of the murder kept changing. Unfortunately, the Calhoun County Prosecutor's Office and Battle Creek Police Department couldn't agree on whom to charge. And the city soon took sides. 
   
   
    
  Cracking open three decades of never-before-seen evidence, this real-life whodunit exposes the dark secrets and tragic infighting that turned the murder of Maggie Hume into an unwinnable contest of wills, egos, politics, and the law—a contest that, to this day, isn't over.

  The Novel That Changed the World.
  
  Experience the raw, unflinching power of Upton Sinclair's masterpiece, The Jungle. Originally intended to expose the brutal conditions faced by immigrants in Chicago's Stockyards, this "muckraking" classic instead ignited a national firestorm over food safety, directly leading to the passage of the Pure Food and Drug Act.
  
  Follow the heartbreaking journey of Jurgis Rudkus, a Lithuanian immigrant who arrives in America full of hope, only to be crushed by the industrial machine of the meatpacking district. Sinclair paints a vivid, terrifying portrait of systemic corruption, poverty, and the hazardous realities of early 20th-century labor.
  
  More than just a historical document, The Jungle remains a gripping and essential work of social justice literature. It is a profound exploration of the American Dream turned nightmare and a testament to the power of a single book to transform a society.
  
  Bear witness to the story that demanded justice. Buy "The Jungle" today and own a piece of literary and social history.

  America’s Most Influential Jazz...

  Editors Charles River

  Louis Armstrong once claimed that “Every time I close my eyes blowing that trumpet of mine—I look right in the heart of good old New Orleans…It has given me something to live for.” This statement conjures an image which most anyone familiar with jazz music can recall: Armstrong clutching his trumpet forcefully, his eyes closed in a manner that distances him from his physical surroundings in favor of a perfect harmony between the man and his instrument. As Armstrong alludes to in this remark, this connection also speaks to the enduring influence of his New Orleans background, which informed his musical style and indeed continued to live on through his music.  
  In 1956, Duke Ellington was featured on the cover of Time Magazine after a bravura performance at the Newport Jazz Festival that summer. This remains one of his most iconic achievements, and a landmark for jazz music as a whole (only four jazz musicians were ever displayed on the cover of Time). At the same time, however, this recognition stands as one of the prevailing ironies of Ellington’s career, as he was deep into the latter stages of his performing life by this point.  
  While those two men became jazz’s most famous performers, others rose as legendary singers. If Billie Holiday wanted to become a jazz singer, she chose the best of all eras in which to attempt it. A wave of great jazz and jazz/pop crossover artists swept over the United States from the 1920s through the 1950s, generating a golden age for the genre. This wondrous jazz era was well represented by both black and white master artists, men, women, vocalists, and instrumentalists, and Billie Holiday has stood the test of time as well as any, despite struggling with an environment that easily could have doomed such aspirations.

  Suzanne Joinson grew up in a 1980s council estate in Crewe, where her parents were followers of The Divine Light Mission cult. This clash of class and counterculture destroyed her family, leaving a legacy of turmoil and poverty. 
   
  Years later, she attempts to reclaim what she’s lost and piece together the impact of a childhood infused with esoteric yoga practices, psychedelic encounters, and meditation techniques. She acquires replicas of beloved objects that had to be destroyed in regular purges in the hope of restoring family ties. 
   
  The Museum of Lost and Fragile Things explores the realm of mother-daughter relationships and inherited trauma, in a moving, delicately-woven account of coming to terms with a complicated past.
