Summary

The Memoirs of George Washington is a profound literary artifact that encapsulates the thoughts and experiences of one of America's foundational figures. Written in a reflective and accessible style, the memoirs provide a first-hand account of Washington's life, from his early years as a land surveyor to his pivotal role in the American Revolution and subsequent presidency. The text not only serves as a personal narrative but also as a crucial historical document, offering insights into the revolutionary fervor that shaped the nascent United States. Washington's candid observations reveal the complexities of leadership and the emerging national identity of America during the late 18th century. George Washington, often referred to as the "Father of His Country," was born into a Virginia plantation family and rose through military and political ranks to become a national icon. His experiences as a soldier in the French and Indian War, combined with his leadership during the Revolutionary War, profoundly influenced his understanding of governance and liberty. Washington's commitment to the ideals of democracy and unity deeply informed his writing, imbuing his memoirs with a sense of purpose and gravitas shaped by the turbulent world he navigated. Readers are encouraged to delve into The Memoirs of George Washington for a nuanced perspective on the formative years of the United States, as conveyed through the eyes of its most esteemed leader. This work not only fascinates history enthusiasts but also serves as a vital resource for understanding the moral and political philosophies that influenced Washington's decisions, making it a critical addition to the libraries of scholars and casual readers alike.

    This is not an inspirational memoir. This is not trauma porn. This is a memoir about the forces that impact our lives, both good and bad. 
    Athena Stevens has never learned the name of the doctor whose lack of intervention at her birth lead to her cerebral palsy, but she feels the consequences of his actions – and inaction – every day. The factor observed first and foremost in her life will forever be the effects of what other people have done to her, rather than her accomplishments. And yet, she was groomed to believe that she would overcome any force that stood in her way. 
    A memoir like no other, What’s Done Cannot be Undone takes readers on a whirlwind journey through Athena’s life, providing a profound insight into the realities of moving through the world as a disabled woman. From being born ‘dead’ to co-founding the Women’s Equality Party; from not being picked to play the back of a cow to an Olivier Award nomination, this complex, lyrical, gut-punch of a memoir is laugh-out-loud funny, unrelentingly furious, and a powerful reminder that changing the world singlehandedly is as impossible as defying the laws of physics. 
    In What’s Done Cannot be Undone, Athena Stevens, a renowned figure in the arts and entertainment industry, shares her life story, a compelling mix of autobiography and social commentary. Her memoir is a powerful reminder of the importance of activism and justice in our society.

    Salomea Genin was born in 1932 in Berlin to Polish-Jewish parents and fled the Nazis with her family to Australia in 1939. In 1944 she joined the Eureka Youth (Young Communist) League and in 1949 – the beginning of the Cold War – the Australian Communist Party just as the government was planning to ban it.In 1951, as a delegate to the "3rd World Youth Festival" in East Berlin, she wanted to help build an anti-fascist state in the newly-founded German Democratic Republic (East Germany). In 1963, after a nine-year struggle, they finally allowed her in. Twenty years later, she realized that she was living in a police state, one in which she had willingly participated – and became suicidal. By 1985, psychotherapy and writing a book about her family enabled her to find the strength to go into political opposition and build a new life, even before the Berlin Wall and East Germany itself were dismantled in 1989.
