A story set before, during, and immediately after the Jacksonian Period and the critical years leading up to the Civil War. Former Speaker of the House, Senator, Secretary of State, organizer of the Whig political party, Henry Clay, had lost the race to the White House three times already, and now was his chance to take the Presidency for himself. Zachary Taylor declines to run as the Chief Executive, giving Clay another shot. With the use of the telegraph and help from newspaper editor Horace Greeley, Daniel Webster, and others, the first presidential debate in 1848 between Clay and Martin Van Buren and Lewis Cass was set. One of the most popular senators of all time, the Kentuckian Henry Clay goes into the debate with fire and vengeance to make up for his previous losses. Whoever comes out the winner of this historical occasion would go on and follow James Polk to the Presidency, and attempt to delay the inevitable—American Civil War.

Skip James (1902–1969) was perhaps the most creative and idiosyncratic of all blues musicians. Drawing on hundreds of hours of conversations with James himself, Stephen Calt here paints a dark and unforgettable portrait of a man untroubled by his own murderous inclinations, a man who achieved one moment of transcendent greatness in a life haunted by failure. And in doing so, Calt offers new insights into the nature of the blues, the world in which it thrived, and its fate when that world vanished.

Except now Madison wants to take back what’s no longer hers—and she’s not the only one.

"5'1 is the new 6'2, and Becky's book proves it."—Kristen Bell Leggy supermodels and pro basketball players be warned: being tall doesn’t mean you’re always a step up in life. Graphic designer Becky Murphy is five-foot-nothing and proud to be petite. Sure, sometimes being diminutive gets you the short end of the stick, but there are also plenty of unique advantages to being under 5’4”—and Murphy has compiled the 100 best reasons in the delightfully whimsical I’d Rather Be Short. Illustrated in a charming, quirky style, I’d Rather Be Short highlights the benefits of being petite, from the sensible to the absurd, including: · You get the best of both worlds: kids’ meals and cocktail parties · You’re never expected to help your friends move · Concertgoers usually won’t hassle you when you shimmy up to the front · You’re less likely to get struck by lightning · Skirts can be dresses; dresses can be skirts · You’re just the way you should be Witty and heartwarming, I’d Rather Be Short is a celebration of self-acceptance—and an instant ego boost to pint-sized ladies everywhere.
