When America shatters during the Civil War, Elizabeth Van Lew risks everything to save our embattled Union. As an elite member of Richmond society, abolitionist Elizabeth Van Lew delivers food to starving Union prisoners at Libby Prison, risking her status and her life. She soon exchanges coded messages, coordinates daring escapes, hides fugitives in her mansion, and smuggles them up North. Drawing on her web of contacts at every level, Miss Van Lew creates the Richmond Underground, a secret network bolstering the Union. Then she infiltrates Confederate President Jefferson Davis's home through her servant, Mary Jane, who reports on the inner workings of the Confederacy. Using a cipher, she shares troop movements and military intelligence with Union Generals and ultimately provides daily updates to General Grant. As grisly battles rage in trenches nearby, the weakened Confederates become suspicious of her every move. If she cannot save herself from persecution, how can she help to preserve America and end slavery? The true story of a bold Patriot who led the Union's most valuable spy ring of the Civil War

'The Adventures of Miss Wiseman' tells the untold story of Frances 'Fanny' Jane Wiseman, a pioneering Australian actress. She was born in England in 1846, and in 1854, when she was seven years old, her family emigrated to Australia. What followed was a life of adventure and a dazzling career on stage. Her first theatrical performance was in Melbourne, Victoria, when she was eight years old, and her last was in 1925 when she was 79. She toured through the goldfields of colonial Australia, and the glittering theatres of India, New Zealand and England. She played an influential role in developing Australia's theatre industry. Throughout her personal and professional life, she challenged the socio-cultural context of the 19th and 20th centuries and was a role model for female quality. Fanny Wiseman fell in love, raised a large family and navigated personal tragedies. She was fiercely independent and devoted to her profession and her family.
Maine Photography

Maine has always played a rich and varied role in the art of photography. For hundreds of years, photographers, like other artists, have made their way to Maine to capture the natural beauty and human culture of the state. So, too, have many photographers come from Maine, and many contributions by Mainers have been made to the medium. Maine in Photography is the first comprehensive overview of the history of photography in the state. Providing basic knowledge of the most important people and institutions to have promoted photography, this volume also studies the ways in which photography has informed the understanding of the social and cultural history of Maine. Beginning with the earliest daguerreotype portraits of the 1840s, this history traces the growth of the medium—emphasizing key contributions, such as the Stanley brothers’ invention of the dry plate process—through to the present. Key topics addressed throughout the book include the importance of photography in documenting labor and economic life, the close relationship between photography and the growth of tourism, and the role of Maine photographers in advancing the medium as a fine art form. Published in conjunction with the Maine Photo Project, this is a unique and timely addition to the body of work on the importance of Maine to American art.
