    Do you remember Pathe News? Taking the train to the seaside? The purple stains of iodine on the knees of boys in short trousers? Knitted bathing costumes? Then the chances are you were born in or around 1950. To the young people of today, the 1950s seems like another age. But for those born around then, this era of childhood seems like yesterday. From waking up to ice on the inside of the windows, washing in a tin bath by the fire and spoonfuls of cod-liver oil, home life was very different to today. This delightful compendium of memories will appeal to all who grew up in this post-war decade, whether in town or country, wealth or poverty. With chapters on games and hobbies, holidays, music and fashion, the wonderful memories will bring back this decade of childhood, and jog memories about all aspects of life.

    In April 1865, Richmond fell to the Union army and Gen. Robert E. Lee surrendered to his Northern counterpart, Ulysses S. Grant, at the Appomattox Court House. But the Civil War was far from over. 
     
     
     
    Determined to keep Confederate dreams of secession alive, President Jefferson Davis and his cabinet fled the burning capital city. With Union troops in pursuit, the fugitives rallied loyalists across the South and made plans to escape to Cuba. In the aftermath of President Abraham Lincoln's assassination, a $100,000 bounty was placed on Davis's head. Finally captured in Irwinville, Georgia, the former US senator and secretary of war became a prisoner of the American government. The harsh treatment he received would inflame tensions between North and South for years to come. 
     
     
     
    Meticulously researched and brilliantly told, The Long Surrender brings these dramatic events to vivid, unforgettable life and paints a fascinating portrait of Davis, one of history's most enigmatic figures. By shining a light on this forgotten chapter of the Civil War, bestselling author Burke Davis examines the lasting impact of America's bloodiest conflict on the national character.

    "My Adventures with Your Money" is a book written by George Graham Rice, an American journalist and writer who was active in the early 20th century. The book is a memoir that recounts Rice's experiences as a "stock tout" or promoter of fraudulent investment schemes during the early years of the stock market. 
    Rice was notorious for his involvement in a number of "get-rich-quick" schemes that promised high returns to investors but were actually fraudulent. He used his skills as a writer and public speaker to promote these schemes and lure investors into investing their money. 
    In "My Adventures with Your Money," Rice describes his various schemes and the methods he used to manipulate investors. He also provides insight into the mindset of the people who invested in these schemes, many of whom were driven by greed and a desire for quick wealth. 
    Overall, "My Adventures with Your Money" provides a fascinating look at the history of the stock market and the culture of fraud and speculation that characterized the early years of American capitalism. It is also a cautionary tale about the dangers of investing in schemes that promise unrealistic returns
