Laura Smith Haviland (1808-1898) was an American social reformer, suffragette, and abolitionist. She notably played an important role in the Underground Railroad, a network of secret routes and safe houses created in the United States during the early to the mid-19th century for use by African American slaves in order to escape into free states or Canada. First published in 1882, "A Woman's Life-Work" contains several stories exploring black-white relationships before the emancipation, together with a slave narrative from "Uncle Philip". She provides gritty descriptions of the abuse slaves were subjected to, as well as descriptions of the prisons, soup kitchens, refugee camps, and hospitals during the war. Contents include: "He had his Dream by Paul Laurence Dunbar", "Preface", "Early Life", "Bereavements", "Anti-Slavery Experiences", "An Ohio School-Teacher", "The Underground Railway", "Fugitive Slaves Assisted", "Christian and Educational Work", "Fugitives in Canada", "Rescue of Slaves", etc. Brilliant Women are proudly republishing this classic book in a brand new edition complete with an introductory poem by Paul Laurence Dunbar.

La Fotografia l'Anima di ci che Immortala. E' il ricordo perpetuo che si tramanda nel tempo. Il sorriso e il dolore di un istante vissuto. E' un diario che si rinnova, che si sfoglia alle carezze delle dita, al gocciare di una lacrima, all'urlo di gioia, una cartolina intrisa di esperienze vissute, l'attimo fuggente che non si ripete. La Fotografia il teatro della vita, tutti possono recitare il proprio ruolo, felice o tragico che sia. E' il sorriso, l'esternazione che resta scolpito e sopravvive nel tempo. E' la magia che si accende, che fiorisce e ci commuove. Non c' persona al mondo, animale, piante e oggetto che non sia stata impressa su una pellicola, la pellicola della vita e dell'eterno tempo. Dopo anni d'intenso lavoro e di estenuante ricerca, grazie al prezioso aiuto del mio compianto amico e collaboratore Sebastiano Di Camillo, posso finalmente realizzare "Le mie Cartoline di Lauro" del mio amato paese, cos che i posteri possano vederle e vivere l'emozione da noi vissute.

SEVENTEEN HUNDRED AND FORTY-FOUR George the Second on the throne of England, "snuffy old drone from the German hive"; Charles Edward Stuart ("bonnie Prince Charlie") making ready for his great coup which, the next year, was to cast down said George from the throne and set Charles Edward thereupon as "rightful, lawful prince-for wha'll be king but Charlie?", and which ended in Culloden and the final downfall and dispersion of the Scottish Stuarts. In France, Louis XV., Lord of Misrule, shepherding his people toward the Abyss with what skill was in him; at war with England, at war with Hungary; Frederick of Prussia alone standing by him.
