Baby's First Lessons


Book Description




The Legend of Baby Doe


Book Description

In her pulchritudinous prime Baby Doe was called the Silver Queen of Colorado by journalists and "that shameless hussy" by the proper wives of the men who eyed her. Flirtatious, adventurous, ambitious, Elizabeth McCourt Doe gave everyone a lot to talk about when she met Horace Tabor, the Silver King of Leadville, in 1880. Three years later they were free to legalize their passion. Although thirty years separated them, they were well matched in romantic recklessness. If The Legend of Baby Doe is the lowdown on the high jinks of two public lives, it is also the story of a love that survived spectacularly good times and bad. Before bad times came, Baby and Horace went on a spending spree. They built an opulent opera house in Denver and bought an Italian-ate villa. Baby Doe went out bejeweled and ermined, and sat at home alone, snubbed by the social dragons. John Burke has written about the giddy rise of a bonanza king who dreamed of entering the White House with Baby Doe on his arm and about the disastrous fall they took together. Wiped out by unwise investments and the Panic of 1893, Tabor soon died, leaving Baby Doe and their two daughters penniless. Reportedly, his deathbed order was to "hang on to the Matchless," a played-out mine filled with water. She managed to do that for almost four decades, struggling heroically against loneliness, poverty, and heartbreak, and becoming one of the great legends of the American West.

Blake's Baby


Book Description

Everyone knows Blake Littlelight is a ladies’ man. So when a mysterious baby is dropped on his doorstep during one of his parties, with his name listed on the birth certificate as the father, no one is really surprised. Least of all the cynical social worker, who hates the way Blake has tried to charm her…and hates she’s falling for him, no matter how much she doesn’t want to. Lanie Weston has known charmers like Blake before and knew from the moment they’d met at her sister’s wedding he was going to be trouble. However, she can’t get him out of her head, and when her sister tells her about the baby-on-the-doorstep drama, she jumps at the chance to see him again. But that doesn’t mean she wants to become another one of his conquests! Of course, Lanie couldn’t have predicted the way Blake throws himself into fatherhood one hundred percent, or how darn scrumptious he looks, holding baby Blossom. The two of them are obviously meant for one another, and he’s clearly a devoted parent. It doesn’t take long before Lanie begins to wonder if maybe she’s been wrong about him…Right up until the moment she finds out she isn’t.




A Lousy Start


Book Description

Prior to the stock market crash in 1929, Holland was a prosperous country where its people enjoyed secure futures-or so they thought. After the world's economic collapse, millions were forced into a poverty-stricken existence where every day was a struggle to survive. A Lousy Start shares one family's vivid impressions of living in Holland during the Great Depression and the lasting impact those experiences had on their lives. At the beginning of the twentieth century, Arie Demerwe worked hard and was paid very little, but still managed to put food on his table. Sent to fight in the war of 1918, Arie finally returned to his hometown where he began working again-only to see everything change again after the end of World War I. As the people of Holland enjoyed wealth they assumed would last forever, dark changes loomed ahead. When the sun rose on October 23, 1929, no one had a clue that tragedy would strike by day's end. For the next ten years, a hostile world would transform even the most religious people into thieves and liars. As one family fought to stay alive in a bleak existence, each of them learned valuable life lessons they would carry with them forever.




The Tenth Child


Book Description

This is a powerful story of Julianna, the tenth child of poor Hungarian peasants, whose life spread through the most challenging and tragic historical milestones of twentieth century Europe: Second World War, Nazi occupation of Hungary, Communist Crackdown, and the Hungarian Revolution of 1956. Julianna's courage and determination will inspire and touch the hearts of the readers as she shares with them the wonderful, fascinating details of her life which was completely different from those of most Americans. She conveys those historical events through her own experiences, the way they had affected and altered her childhood and eventually her entire life. Through her voice the reader will find Julianna's heart and soul that endured all the explosions of bombs, hunger and nerve-breaking fright when Hungary became the battleground between withdrawing Nazis and the Red Army. Her courage was really put to the test when after the Russian tanks brutally crushed the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 she crawled through a minefield in the dark, then on her stomach inched across a bridge, and under a hail of border guards' bullets ran for her life to reach Austria, and finally the land of her childhood dream, America.
