In illuminating the years before 1914, MacMillan shows the many parallels between then and now, telling an urgent story for our time.

Book excerpt: Join an imaginary merchant ship in 1608 sailing from England to the Cliffs of Moher in Ireland, where King James awaits its arrival. A group of Irish rebels are to be sent to America as the first shipload of white Irish slaves to work in the English Colonial plantations. Unbeknown to their English captors, these slaves are actually monks and scribes—descendants of the high kings and earls of Ireland. After an eventful journey at sea, the slaves arrive in Jamestown, Virginia, where they discover a common spiritual heritage with their African counterparts. Despite terrible living conditions, the slaves’ compound of the slaves becomes a place of dialogue, community building, love and friendship, and spiritual transformation. The Unknown Journey to America covers prerevolutionary events that cast the early foundation of the American cultural identity and their lasting effects on present-day economics and socio-political conditions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The instant New York Times bestseller featured on NPR's Weekend Edition with Scott Simon! B. J. Novak (bestselling author of The Book With No Pictures) described this groundbreaking poetry collection as "Smart and sweet, wild and wicked, brilliantly funny--it's everything a book for kids should be." Lauded by critics as a worthy heir to such greats as Silverstein, Seuss, Nash and Lear, Harris's hilarious debut molds wit and wordplay, nonsense and oxymoron, and visual and verbal sleight-of-hand in masterful ways that make you look at the world in a whole new wonderfully upside-down way. With enthusiastic endorsements from bestselling luminaries such as Lemony Snicket, Judith Viorst, Andrea Beaty, and many others, this entirely unique collection offers a surprise around every corner. Adding to the fun: Lane Smith, bestselling creator of beloved hits like It's a Book and The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales, has spectacularly illustrated this extraordinary collection with nearly one hundred pieces of appropriately absurd art. It's a mischievous match made in heaven! "Ridiculous, nonsensical, peculiar, outrageous, possibly deranged--and utterly, totally, absolutely delicious. Read it! Immediately!" --Judith Viorst, bestselling author of Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day
