Paperback. Zustand: Good. Long overlooked in histories of finance, women played an essential role in areas such as banking and the stock market during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Yet their presence sparked ongoing controversy. Hetty Green's golden touch brought her millions, but she outraged critics with her rejection of domesticity. Progressives like Victoria Woodhull, meanwhile, saw financial acumen as more important for women than the vote. George Robb's pioneering study sheds a light on the financial methods, accomplishments, and careers of three generations of women. Plumbing sources from stock brokers' ledgers to media coverage, Robb reveals the many ways women invested their capital while exploring their differing sources of information, approaches to finance, interactions with markets, and levels of expertise. He also rediscovers the forgotten women bankers, brokers, and speculators who blazed new trails--and sparked public outcries over women's unsuitability for the predatory rough-and-tumble of market capitalism. Entertaining and vivid with details, Ladies of the Ticker sheds light on the trailblazers who transformed Wall Street into a place for women's work. …

Paperback. Zustand: Fair. Strength and Goodness (Force-Bonté) by Bakary Diallo is one of the only memoirs of World War I ever written or published by an African. It remains a pioneering work of African literature as well as a unique and invaluable historical document about colonialism and Africa?s role in the Great War. Lamine Senghor?s The Rape of a Country (La Violation d?un pays) is another pioneering French work by a Senegalese veteran of World War I, but one that offers a stark contrast to Strength and Goodness. Both are made available for the first time in English in this edition, complete with a glossary of terms and a general historical introduction. The centennial of World War I is an ideal moment to present Strength and Goodness and The Rape of a Country to a wider, English-reading public. Until recently, Africa's role in the war has been neglected by historians and largely forgotten by the general public. Euro-centric versions of the war still predominate in popular culture, Many historians, however, now insist that African participation in the 1914-18 War is a large part of what made that conflict a world war.…

Jacket in new Brodart with a little edge wear and arubbing. A nice copy. Number 22 in J.D. Robb's (Nora Roberts) In Death Series of a futuristic New York City. "Eve Dallas is one tough cop. It should take more than a seemingly ordinary middle-aged lady to make her fall apart. But when that lady is Trudy Lombard, all bets are off. Just seeing Trudy at the station plunges Eve back to the days when she was a bulnerable, traumatized young girl - trapped in foster care with the twisted woman who now sits smiling in front of her. "Trudy claims she came all the way to New York just to see how Eve is doing. But Eve's fiercely protective husband, Roarke, suspects otherwise - and a blackmail attempt by Trudy proves his suspicion correct. Eve and Roarke just want the woman out of their lives. Someone else wants her dead. And when her murder comes to pass, Eve and Roarke will follow a circuitous and dangerous path to find out who turned the victimizer into the victim. "; 7¾" - 9¾" Tall.

The 22nd entry in Robb's "In Death" adventures of homicide detective Eve Dallas, who polices a 2060 New York City where guns have been banned. (It's never made clear what happened to the Second Amendment, but it's a wish-fulfillment fantasy that Robb's readers seem to enjoy sharing, along with the notion that our heroine can enjoy living in a magic castle in Central Park with her fantastically handsome Irish capitalist billionaire husband (so capitalism also survives in New York? Hey, fantasy) -- a gazillion-room castle apparently staffed with only one aging Man Friday. This time around, one of the foster moms who made Eve's teen-age years a living hell shows up from Texas, supposedly "just to see how Eve is doing." 337 pp., reduced from $15. Jacket design & photo illustration by George Cornell (illustrator). Signed by Author(s).…
