Life turns on small moments, those innocuous events that appear like nothing but grow into something far more lasting, and Truman Lastinger is no different. Born into a sharecropper's family in rural Georgia, Truman had no expectation of leaving his hometown or going to college--that was not the life of a sharecropper's son--but then a local pharmacist took an interest in his future and Truman flipped a coin to meet a girl. Two small events combined to change his life--transporting him from the farm to his own pharmacy.Truman collects these moments and memories that have guided his life from a little boy hitting a flaming baseball to a pharmacist fighting for his community's right to health. In turn, this autobiography, Farming to Pharmacy: Memories of a Sharecropper's Son, recounts not only his story, but the story of the rural South, of hardships imposed on the unsuspecting, of communities struggling together, and of families surviving through the absurd, tragic, and jubilant realities of daily life.

When she was just 16, Amelia Harmon witnessed the bloody opening stages of the Battle of Gettysburg. On July 1, 1863, Amelia's home occupied a no-man's land between Union and Confederate lines. As she watched and listened, skirmishers fought over the house and property. During the second of two Confederate attacks, soldiers burned the Harmon house and barn. In an effort to recover from the destruction of his land, the elusive Emanuel Harmon introduced to the public a "medicinal" spring located on the property. The Katalysine Spring became famous, and in 1869 a hotel was built near the site to accommodate the spring's many visitors. The farm was later the site of the Gettysburg Country Club, frequented by Dwight D. Eisenhower. This book examines for the first time the fascinating events that took place on the fields of the Harmon farm before, during, and after the Battle of Gettysburg.

This exquisite novel tells the story of one of the most compelling heroines in modern literature--Emma Bovary. "Madame Bovary has a perfection that not only stamps it, but that makes it stand almost alone; it holds itself with such a supreme unapproachable assurance as both excites and defies judgement." - Henry James Unhappily married to a devoted, clumsy provincial doctor, Emma revolts against the ordinariness of her life by pursuing voluptuous dreams of ecstasy and love. But her sensuous and sentimental desires lead her only to suffering corruption and downfall. A brilliant psychological portrait, Madame Bovary searingly depicts the human mind in search of transcendence. Who is Madame Bovary? Flaubert's answer to this question was superb: "Madame Bovary, c'est moi." Acclaimed as a masterpiece upon its publication in 1857, the work catapulted Flaubert to the ranks of the world's greatest novelists. This volume, with its fine translation by Lowell Bair, a perceptive introduction by Leo Bersani, and a complete supplement of essays and critical comments, is the indispensable Madame Bovary.
