  Louisa MacDonald was born in 1845, one of eleven children of part Scottish descent.  Together with three of her sisters they were known as the ‘MacDonald sisters’ primarily because of their marriages to well-known men.   
  In 1866 she married the wealthy industrialist Alfred Baldwin in a double wedding with her sister Anne.   
  After giving birth to Stanley on the 3rd August 1867, who would go on to become Prime Minister, she drifted into an unhappy life in her then residence in Worcestershire.  She had at least one miscarriage and days alone depressed and in darkness. 
  During the 1870’s the couple travelled to find a lasting cure and tried a variety of treatments which led to her recovery in 1883.  She now became a leading figure in her local village of Wilden, near Stourbridge. 
  Her writing career of novels, short stories and poetry is often overlooked, as was the case with so many women, yet her works reveal many talents and a gift for melding odd and weird circumstances into seemingly everyday life.   
  Louisa Baldwin died in 1925.

  The epic, page-turning history of how a group of physicists toppled the Newtonian universe in the early decades of the twentieth century 
  The epic true story of how a global team of physics luminaries—Einstein, Curie, Schrödinger, and more—toppled the Newtonian universe amid the turmoil of two World Wars 
   
  There may never be another era of science like the first half of the twentieth century, when many of the most important physicists ever to live—Marie Curie, Max Planck, Wolfgang Pauli, Niels Bohr, Werner Heisenberg, Ernst Schrödinger, Albert Einstein, and others—came together to uncover the quantum world: a concept so outrageous and shocking, so contrary to traditional physics, that its own founders rebelled against it until the equations held up and fundamentally changed our understanding of reality. 
   
  In cinematic, page-turning chapters, Tobias Hürter takes us back to this uniquely momentous and harrowing time, when war and revolution upended the lives of his renegade scientists. As they crisscross Europe, Hürter reveals these brilliant thinkers anew, as friends and enemies, lovers and loners, and indeed, men and women just like us. Hürter compellingly casts quantum mechanics as a concept Too Big for a Single Mind—and its birth as a testament to the boundless potential of genius in collaboration.

  What If? invites readers into the unbelievable, unforgettable, and wildly entertaining life of Bill, a man whose real stories are stranger, funnier, and more inspiring than fiction could ever dare. Once a hard-living, hard-drinking truck driver, Bill transformed himself into one of the early pioneers of elite professional cycling in the United States. Across these pages, he shares tales of rowdy nights, fierce races, unlikely victories, and the twists of fate that reshaped his life as he became a father and eventually returned to the big rig in his 60s. Across eight decades, Bill has lived the equivalent of nine or ten lifetimes, on the bike and far beyond it, and he's still adding chapters to his incredible story. His collection of adventures reminds us all to live a little bolder... though maybe not quite as boldly as he has. Told with humor, grit, and heart, What If? reads like a night around a campfire with the wildest, most big-hearted storyteller you know, the kind of person who keeps you laughing, gasping, and shaking your head as shooting stars streak overhead. Praise for What If? "Bill's stories make you wonder where the line between luck, grit, and pure chaos really is. A wildly entertaining and deeply human read."
