  In the swirl of Philadelphia at the end of Prohibition, Leyb meets Charles. They are at a former speakeasy called Cricket's, a bar that welcomes, as Charles says in his secondhand Yiddish, feygeles. Leyb is startled; fourteen years in amerike has taught him that his native tongue is not known beyond his people. And yet here is suave Charles, a Black man from the Seventh Ward, a fellow traveler of Red Emma's, speaking Jewish to a young man he will come to call Lion. 
   
   
   
  Lion is haunted by memories of life before, in Zatelsk, where everyone in his village, everyone except the ten non-Jews, a young poet named Gittl, and Leyb himself, was taken to the forest and killed. 
   
   
   
  And then, miraculously, Gittl is in Philadelphia, too, thanks to a poem she wrote and the intervention of a shadowy character known only as the Baroness of Philadelphia. And surrounding Gittl are malokhim, the spirits of her siblings. 
   
   
   
  Moriel Rothman-Zecher's Before All the World lays bare the impossibility of escaping trauma, the necessity of believing in a better way ahead, and the power that comes from our responsibility to the future. It asks the most essential question: What do you intend to do before all the world?

  A Western adventure rooted in truth, forged in mystery. 
  The Black Hills stood untouched, unclaimed, and full of secrets when Ezra Kind carved his fate into a slab of sandstone. What began as a search for gold quickly turned into a desperate fight for survival — and a message that would echo through generations. 
  Decades later, as new settlers and fortune-seekers flood the Dakota Territory, two brothers uncover the half-buried stone and find themselves pulled into the mystery it holds. In a land where fact and folklore blur, where hope is weighed against hardship, the Kind family’s legacy stirs once again. 
  Based on real events and inspired by the legend of the Thoen Stone, The Kind Whisper launches The Kind Legacy Series — a sweeping historical Western filled with frontier grit, hidden truths, and the powerful ties of family. Along the way, it crosses paths with some of the West’s most iconic figures—including General George Custer, Wild Bill Hickok, and Calamity Jane. 
  Some treasures are buried in the earth. Others are buried in the heart. 
  Some whispers echo through time. 
  This is one of them.

  That’s the trouble with anarchists: big ideas, shoddy staff work. 
  Harry Delamere doesn’t know much about opera, but he’s fairly sure people aren’t supposed to get murdered for real at the climax. In this excerpt from his memoirs - published as the Gentleman Adventurer series - he finds himself kidnapped, blown up, suspected of murder, forced to listen to Winston Churchill, kidnapped again - oh, and again - enjoying a terrifying encounter with modern technology and making a most ungentlemanly display of his legs while tackling the threat of world revolution. 
  A thrilling clash between the genteel arts and the new-fangled flying machines! Two of the most notorious incidents in the history of British radicalism! Shocks, scandals, anarchist outrages, sinister secret policemen, foreign beauties, pioneer pilots, domestic beauties, and a most distressing episode during the interval at the Alhambra. 
  ‘Ye Gods’, said Winston Churchill; ‘Harry Delamere… It must be worse than we feared.’
