Book excerpt: Excerpt from Her Honor the Mayor: A Comedy in Three Acts Her Honor the Mayor is intended to be a good-natured satire on the woman's rights question, neither for nor against the movement, but written for the sole purpose of providing a little fun as a two hours relaxation for the tired business man or business woman. Eve Greenway, a wealthy young lady, is engaged to Lester Parmenter, who is a candidate for mayor of the town. The newspaper announces that Lester is to make a speech denouncing the suffragists, and three of their number call on Eve in their indignation. Eve is equally indignant and joins their party. She tells Lester that he must choose between her and his party, if they insist on him making the antisuffrage speech. Mr. McGoon, his political manager, arrives and tells him that he must make the speech, promising that if he does so he will be sure of election. Lester refuses and even declares his intention of making a speech favoring the cause. McGoon steals the anti-suffrage speech and determines to make it himself. But how shall he keep Lester away from the meeting? He determines to drug him and hires Eliza Goober, the "cullud" hired girl, to do the work. By a mistake Eve herself drinks the drug and falls asleep. The rest of the play is Eves dream. She dreams that she and Lester are married and that she has been elected mayor of the town. The men have been deprived of the ballot and the second act shows them doing the work formerly done by the women. Lester is housekeeper and McGoon the hired girl. Eliza Goober is now the Chief of Police. Her Honor the Mayor allows herself to be bribed and thus puts herself in the power of Lieutenant McNabb of the good ship Susan B.Anthony, who is the villain of the play. Lieutenant McNabb proposes to Eves brother Clarence and is about to expose Eve when she is thwarted by the brave and noble Chief of the Fire Department, formerly Miss Doris Denton.

Book excerpt: This New York Times–bestselling saga of two brothers in postwar America, the basis for the classic miniseries, is “a book you can’t put down” (The New York Times). Siblings Rudy, Tom, and Gretchen Jordache grow up in a small town on the Hudson River. They’re in their teens in the 1940s, too young to go to war but marked by it nevertheless. Their father is the local baker, and nothing suggests they will live storied lives. Yet, in this sprawling saga, each member of the family pushes against the grain of history and confronts the perils and pleasures of a world devastated by conflict and transformed by American commerce and culture. A memorable novel by one of America’s greatest twentieth-century authors, Rich Man, Poor Man offers a gripping ride through America between the Second World War and Vietnam. It was made into one of the first primetime TV mini-series, and starred Nick Nolte, Peter Strauss, and Susan Blakely.
