The Secrets of the Harem is an anonymous insider view on historical Turkish harems. Excerpt: "Many people have an idea that Turkish women absolutely do nothing that is either useful or ornamental aside from the decoration of their own persons, but that is not altogether true, as my residence of over a year in their country taught me, for they are really dextrous with the needle and do work which is as fine as that done by the sisters in the convents, or that of the wives of the feudal noblemen of olden times. The favorite pastime of the Turkish women is the bath, which brings together the wives and slaves of all the well-to-do Turks, and it is like a picnic of school children. These wives, most of them very young—some, indeed, not over twelve or fourteen years old—take their lunch along, and they eat and steam, plunge and splash, and play pranks upon each other in the wildest glee the whole day long. No fear of an angry husband haunts their minds, for they are not expected to do anything, and their husbands very rarely enter the harems before six o'clock. By this time they are all back, rosy and sweet from their bath."

In this first of a trilogy, "Secrets," Antonia learns through her relationships with four men to become a woman. The secrets of her loveless Alabama childhood help us understand the romantically-driven, searching-for-love adult woman. Antonia is secretly in love with, and grieving for, the now dead Catlin (Catlin is based on James Jones, author of "From Here to Eternity"). Antonia is separated from her deceitful husband, John; unexpectedly, she found him in her bed with another woman. "Secrets," To add to love entanglements, Antonia now lives with Vic, the wild motorcycle rider she met the night John cheated. Icy John and his developing alcoholism drove Antonia away; his unfaithfulness was only a bitter ending. And always, Antonia grows through her experiences, secrets and too late love for Catlin. She finds herself described in his final book. Antonia buys a small house in Louisiana and when carefree, heedless Vic becomes erratic, Antonia chooses, regretfully to be sure, to tell Vic goodbye. From the black and white biblical bleakness of the beginning, this brave and wounded long-ago girl is now grown up. Antonia decides to own herself and her life. No more secrets.

Nicoll's History, which tells the story of English drama from the reopening of the theatres at the time of the Restoration right through to the end of the Victorian period, was viewed by Notes and Queries (1952) as 'a great work of exploration, a detailed guide to the untrodden acres of our dramatic history, hitherto largely ignored as barren and devoid of interest'.

In this volume the myths and legends of ancient Egypt are embraced in a historical narrative which begins with the rise of the great Nilotic civilization and ends with the Græco−Roman Age. The principal deities are dealt with chiefly at the various periods in which they came into prominence, while the legends are so arranged as to throw light on the beliefs and manners and customs of the ancient people. Metrical renderings are given of such of the representative folk songs and poems as can be appreciated at the present day.
