Book excerpt: I have often been asked to tell the story of the Ruby Ring, and I now do so for the sake of my children. It may instruct them a little; it will certainly amuse and interest them. I am nearly thirty now, but when the story of the ring happened, I was between nineteen and twenty. It is not so long ago, therefore, and all the events stand out quite clear and strong in my memory. We lived in the country, about thirty miles away from London. There were plenty of quick trains, even ten years ago, and my father and brothers used to go to town every morning, and return in time for a sort of mixed meal between dinner and supper, at night. My mother and I had rather a dull life; the only event of any moment in the twenty-four hours being the evening meal when the men of the family were at home. I was the only girl, and the youngest of the family. I was not petted nor made much of in any way; ten years ago girls were not fussed over as they are now. My father had none of the advanced ideas with regard to women; he thought the less girls were heard of outside their homes, the better. He was a very good, honourable man, but a great autocrat. What he said and thought was echoed both by my mother and brothers. They all preached to me from morning till night the doctrine of staying quietly at home, of doing nothing, and of waiting until your fortune dropped into your lap.

Book excerpt: Seventeen-year-old Ruby Thomas, newly responsible for her two young nieces after a devastating tragedy, is determined to keep her family safe in the vast, swirling world of 1920s New York City. She’s got street smarts, boundless determination, and one unusual skill: the ability to throw a ball as hard as the greatest pitchers in a baseball-mad city. From Coney Island sideshows to the brand-new Yankee Stadium, Diamond Ruby chronicles the extraordinary life and times of a girl who rises from utter poverty to the kind of renown only the Roaring Twenties can bestow. But her fame comes with a price, and Ruby must escape a deadly web of conspiracy and threats from Prohibition rumrunners, the Ku Klux Klan, and the gangster underworld. Diamond Ruby “is the exciting tale of a forgotten piece of baseball’s heritage, a girl who could throw with the best of them. A real page-turner, based closely on a true story” (Kevin Baker, author of Strivers Row).

Book excerpt: Rubies are one of the world's most expensive gems; a large ruby is rarer than a diamond of comparable size. Because of their rarity rubies are often an essential part among the jewels of royal families. This book is the story of one of those rare rubies, set in a silver ring and surrounded by a circle of diamonds. We are introduced to this ring in the fifteenth century Spanish court of Ferdinand and Isabella. During the following four centuries the ring was on a journey that traversed many families, several nations and five wars. The reader will follow the ring through the passage of time and meet the people who shared in its story. Each of the twelve chapters is a short story involving new characters but each story is tied to the previous one by the ruby. The existence of this ruby ring is taken from a legend about Katharine of Aragon, the first wife of King Henry VIII. It is said she wore a ruby that lost its deep radiance and turned dull the day before her husband announced he was divorcing her. Aside from legends and fictional characters all the historical references in this book are factual, including Katharine herself.
