Summary

In "What Every Girl Should Know," Margaret Sanger delivers a groundbreaking examination of women's health, sexuality, and the critical issues surrounding contraception and reproductive rights in early 20th-century America. Written in a direct and accessible style, Sanger's work challenges societal norms and promotes the idea that women deserve autonomy over their own bodies. The book is situated within the larger context of the Progressive Era, reflecting the rising tides of feminist thought and the increasing awareness of sexual health. Sanger's candid approach serves both as an informative guide and a call to action, encouraging young women to educate themselves about their own biological realities and societal expectations. Margaret Sanger, a tireless advocate for birth control and reproductive freedom, was influenced by her experiences in a large family and her observations of the struggles faced by women in her time. Founding the American Birth Control League, which later became Planned Parenthood, Sanger's relentless pursuit of women'Äôs empowerment and health education informed her writing style and her commitment to deliver an unfiltered message. Her life experiences imbue the text with authenticity, making her arguments resonate deeply with readers grappling with similar issues. This book is highly recommended for those interested in women's history, reproductive rights, and socio-political movements. Sanger'Äôs lucid and passionate prose invites readers to engage with critical questions about autonomy, education, and empowerment. "What Every Girl Should Know" remains a pivotal text, urging contemporary readers to consider the ongoing struggles for women's rights and the vital importance of informed choices.

    “FREAK SHOW – CREATURES OF PLEASURE” 
    Rural America in the 1930s…it’s a rough place. I joined the circus to put food on the table, but I didn’t realize what the job entailed. 
    The ringmaster said he’d train my body. I thought I’d become a strong performer—like an acrobat. 
    But that’s not what happened at all. He’s training me to be a “boxboy”. 
    Locked in chastity and locked in a tiny wooden box, only my head and my plump, naked rear protrude. He’s prepping me for my grand debut. I can’t wait. I want it so badly. 
    Men from far and wide will pay to use my dirty, sweaty body. 
    They’ll pay to use a circus freak.

    Timothy Venning's exploration of the alternative paths that British history might easily have taken moves on to the Wars of the Roses. What if Richard of York had not given battle in vain? How would a victory for Warwick the Kingmaker at the Battle of Barnet changed the course of the struggle for power? What if the Princes had escaped from the tower or the Stanleys had not betrayed their king at Bosworth? These are just a few of the fascinating questions posed by this book. 
     
     
     
    As always, while necessarily speculative, Dr. Venning discusses all the scenarios within the benefit of a deep understanding of the major driving forces, tensions, and trends that shaped British history. In so doing, he helps the listener to understand why things panned out as they did, as well as what might have been in this tumultuous period.

    On how our sense of balance has defined us as a nation and will safeguard our future. 
      
    In the years that John Howard served in the national parliament he came to understand the special character of Australia; to appreciate its strengths and weaknesses; and most importantly to respect the sense of balance in the formulation of public policy that has long defined us as a nation and made Australia an attractive destination for people from across the world. 
    In this book he explores this balance, its foundations and its future. Written against the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as some of the more contested political events of recent years - the election of Donald Trump, the Brexit vote, the rise of China, and, within our own country, a carousel of six prime ministers in eleven years - these reflections touch on how Australia has responded to pressure over the last decade or so. Commentary on these subjects from politicians, opinion writers and social media can sometimes seem shrill and divisive. Australia's 25th and second longest serving prime minister has faith that no matter what challenges and extremes threaten to upset our sense of balance, the country's institutions and people will remain robust into the foreseeable future. 
    PRAISE 
    'John Howard's ongoing and important contribution to this country continues with his latest laser sharp book, A Sense of Balance. No former leader understands the Australian character better than our 25th Prime Minister' Janet Albrechtsen, columnist

    The 1930s in Ireland is often thought of as a bleak period of economic stagnation and unemployment. But 1932, hailed by the Irish Press as a 'new era', was an early glimmer of the modernity and success Ireland would later reach: a sequence of events and achievements that included technological advances in travel, agriculture, home appliances and entertainment; Olympic gold medals and the meteoric rise of boxing phenomenon Jack Doyle; a spectacular Eucharistic Congress; sweepstakes and a so called gold rush; as well as the election of Éamon de Valera and transformations in politics and culture.
    The soundtrack scoring all this change was the jazz craze, which landed in Ireland in the early 1930s and flourished throughout the country, loosening the conservative social and moral order of the time. Jazz brought new forms of dress, lifestyle and behaviour, exciting and exhilarating a younger generation for the future, while leaving an older generation wary of such rapid change.
    A Year of Glory and Gold is an energetic and exuberant biography of a bright year in Ireland's history, combining deep archival research with spirited storytelling by one of Ireland's best-loved social historians.

    Taken to Europe as a slave, he found his way home and changed the course of American history 
     
     
      
    American schoolchildren have long learned about Squanto, the welcoming Native who made the First Thanksgiving possible, but his story goes deeper than the holiday legend. Born in the Wampanoag-speaking town of Patuxet in the late 1500s, Squanto was kidnapped in 1614 by an English captain, who took him to Spain. From there, Englishmen brought him to London and Newfoundland before sending him home in 1619, when Squanto discovered that most of Patuxet had died in an epidemic. A year later, the Mayflower colonists arrived at his home and renamed it Plymouth. 
     
     
      
    Prize-winning historian Andrew Lipman explores the mysteries that still surround Squanto: How did he escape bondage and return home? Why did he help the English after an Englishman enslaved him? Why did he threaten Plymouth's fragile peace with its neighbors? Was it true that he converted to Christianity on his deathbed? Drawing from a wide range of evidence and newly uncovered sources, Lipman reconstructs Squanto's upbringing, his transatlantic odyssey, his career as an interpreter, his surprising downfall, and his enigmatic death. The result is a fresh look at an epic life that ended right when many Americans think their story begins.
