The Annenbergs


Book Description

"This is the colorful and dramatic biography of two of America's most controversial entrepreneurs: Moses Louis Annenberg, 'the racing wire king, ' who built his fortune in racketeering, invested it in publishing, and lost much of it in the biggest tax evasion case in United States history; and his son, Walter, launcher of TV Guide and Seventeen magazines and former ambassador to Great Britain."--Jacket.







Women in Tolstoy


Book Description

Tolstoy had, Ruth Crego Benson shows, a double view of women as both angel and devil, a view which was an outgrowth of the lifelong conflict between his conscience and his instincts. This book explores in depth Tolstoy's attitudes toward women (in the context of love, marriage, and the family) as reflected in his treatment of femaile characters in Family happiness, War and peace, Anna Karenina, and The Kreutzer sonata. An analysis of The Cossacks, "The devil," and "Father Sergius" is also included.
