1.Schindler s ListSchindler's List
from Touchstone

Customer Review:
This book is horrendous, terrible, amazing, sympathetic, and heroic all at the same time. How humans can do this to each other is beyound me, and thankfully beyound most of us in this world.

This account of Australia and Ireland tells a fantastic story, weaving in events of the 19th century with the men who fought for Ireland and were shipped as prisoners to Australia.

4.Schindler s Legacy: True Stories of the List SurvivorsSchindler's Legacy: True Stories of the List Survivors
from Plume

Customer Review:
This book of course takes off where the movie left off. It tracks down and interviews a select group of the survivors on Shindler's famous list. Many of whom of course refused to be interviewed, others would consent to do so only anonymously, and still others only after intense prodding. All led... more info

5.American Scoundrel: The Life of the Notorious Civil War General Dan SicklesAmerican Scoundrel: The Life of the Notorious Civil War General Dan Sickles
from Anchor
Price: $10.20

Customer Review:
AMERICAN SCOUNDREL is interesting in that it is flawed on so very many different levels.
It fails as psychohistory -- Dan Sickles, a notorious womanizer, shoots down his wife's lover in front of the White House, and is judged NOT GUILTY. This simply begs for psychological introspection, but all... more info

7.A River TownA River Town
from Plume

Customer Review:
I have never written an online review, but I am on somewhat of a crusade to get people to read this book. So many dramatic things happen; a fatal accident, a near drowning, an epidemic, and the sheriff's ongoing quest to find out the identity of the woman who died in a botched abortion whose... more info

This is one of several volumes in the Penguin Lives Series, each of which written by a distinguished author in her or his own right.

from University of Georgia Press

Customer Review:
Ever wonder what happened when you were hit point blank with grape shot from a cannon? Neither had I, but now I know, in vivid detail.
An epic novel that puts you emotionally in the middle of the Civil War. The descriptive detail Keneally delivers to those fortunate enough to read this book... more info
