As the son of a bureaucrat in Singapore, Bryan Lockhart was raised within society that cherished conformity to social norms and service above all else. It is a culture which has no place for someone like Bryan who is unable to answer the question; 'What am I, a boy or a girl' At age 14 he turns to Madam Leu, a Chinese woman who caters to the eclectic needs of pre-war Singapore. She introduces him to a Malay transsexual. While the two outcasts form a friendship that transcends race and class, Madam Leu draws Bryan into a world in which men of wealth pay well to satisfy their desires. When this is discovered, Bryan is exiled to a boarding school in England. Upon completing his education, he goes to Australia where he seeks to begin a new life for himself until the coming of war with Japan and the posting of his unit to Singapore leads to a very different conflict as he once more follows a path that puts him at odds with the society he must defend and tests his loyalty to his fellow officers.

The "War Scrap Book" of Matilda Joslyn Gage

The "War Scrap Book" of Matilda Joslyn Gage

Although she was one of the leading thinkers and writers of the women’s suffrage movement, Matilda Joslyn Gage (1826–1898) was largely written out of history. After working in collaboration with Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony, and after serving as president of the National Woman Suffrage Association, Gage developed increasingly radical views on feminism, religious liberty, and equality under the law. She eventually parted ways with the suffrage movement and founded the more progressive Woman’s National Liberal Union. In Witness to Rebellion, award-winning author Peter Svenson presents and examines Gage's last significant work, a scrapbook that collects newspaper clippings about the Civil War from the 1860s onward. Providing relevant contextual information, Svenson formats the content of the scrapbook to transform this important artifact into a readable work that offers a new and engaging perspective on nineteenth-century American history. Gage’s scrapbook sheds light on her thinking, both as a feminist and a Union patriot, as she lived through the bloodshed and upheaval of the war years and their aftermath. Witness to Rebellion is a valuable resource not only for scholars of history, women’s studies, and material culture, but also for general readers with interest in women’s suffrage and the Civil War.

A Matilda Perks Mystery The English countryside; bucolic, rustic, peaceful. Peaceful, that is, until the body of Douglas Bonar is discovered with its head bashed in. Not that "Squire" Bonar would be greatly missed, for Bonar was an outsider - a rude, overbearing, self-made man from up North who rubbed most people the wrong way and furthermore had had the audacity to try trample on that most cherished of country freedoms, the right of passage on an ancient footpath. Bonar's murder, and the subsequent investigation, would roil the placid surface of the town of Chesworth, for Chesworth, as most such towns, has its share of secrets which people wish to remain buried. There is one person in town, however - the retired schoolmistress Miss Perks - who seems to know all these secrets. Does she know who killed Douglas Bonar?
