Abraham Lincoln has just finished an unsuccessful quest for this U.S. Senate. His legal career is intertwined with his love of politics and his belief that one can support the other. His celebrity as a politician is on the rise, but his love of the law is hard to give up. Lincoln has tried nearly 20 murder cases and still craves the courtroom and its drama. Months before he will receive the Republican nomination for President, he accepts the defense of Peachy Quinn Harrison, accused of killing a childhood friend in Pleasant Plains, Illinois. Harrison's younger sister, Virginia, forms an instant bond with Lincoln and immerses herself in her brother's defense. At trial, Lincoln teams up with his former law partner to claim Harrison acted in self-defense. A seasoned prosecutor represents the State and is assisted by an arrogant lawyer with no respect for women - particularly women interested in the law. The trial is hard fought, with the prosecution countering that passion was the motive. After the jury's dramatic verdict, and against the backdrop of the Civil War, Virginia determines she wants to be a lawyer. Her failures and triumphs culminate in a befitting and ironic climax.
Download or read book The Idea of Perfection written by Kate Grenville and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2003-10-28 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Harley Savage is a plain woman, a part-time museum curator and quilting expert with three failed marriages and a heart condition. Douglas Cheeseman is a shy, gawky engineer with jug-handle ears, one marriage gone sour, and a crippling lack of physical courage. They meet in the little Australian town of Karakarook, where Harley has arrived to help the town build a heritage museum and Douglas to demolish the quaint old Bent Bridge. From the beginning they are on a collision course until the unexpected sets them both free. Elegantly and compassionately told, The Idea of Perfection is reminiscent of the work of Carol Shields and Annie Proulx and reveals Kate Grenville as "a writer of extraordinary talent" (The New York Times Book Review).

Download or read book Ettie written by Richard Davenport-Hines and published by Weidenfeld & Nicolson. This book was released on 2012-11-15 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The life of Lady Desborough - beautiful heiress, aristocratic hostess, unfaithful wife, tragic mother, Edwardian icon. Born in 1867 and orphaned at three, Ettie Fane was brought up by a beloved grandmother and then two adoring, almost incestuous, bachelor uncles. At twenty she married Willy Grenfell, later Lord Desborough. Beautiful, rich, charming and clever, Ettie soon became a leading hostess at the two magnificent country houses she had inherited. Leading politicians, writers and artists were very much part of her circle. But there was a dark side too, as this book will reveal. Ettie could be manipulative and cruel. Her eldest son Julian, after a nervous breakdown at Oxford, rejected her world and values. Nemesis and tragedy were not far away. In 1915 Julian died of war wounds. Six weeks later her second son Billy was killed in action. Her youngest son Ivo would be killed shortly after the war. But despite intense private misery, she reacted with outward courage and self-mastery. Grief revealed the greatness of her spirit. In the 1920s and 1930s she continued to collect new types, especially gifted young men, relishing people of all ages up to her death in 1952, a redoutable survivor from a vanished age.

So I'd like you right now to stop what you're doing and take a seat, whether it be in the comfort of your own home, on the top deck of the bus, on the tube (so you don't have to make eye contact with anybody) or on the throne of the house (a.k.a. the toilet).
