D308 .A63 2009. Andress, David, 1969-. 1789: the threshold of the modern age. David Andress. New York: Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2009.

Table of Contents:      From the inauguration of George Washington to the birth of the cotton trade in the American South, from the British Empire's war in India to the street battles of the French evolution, Andress shows how the struggles of this explosive year would dominate the Old and New Worlds for the next 200 years; The world in 1789 stood on the edge of a unique transformation. At the end of an unprecedented century of progress, the fates of three nations--France, the nascent United States, and their common enemy, Britain--lay interlocked. A year of revolution was crowned in two documents drafted at almost the same time: the French Declaration of the Rights of Man and the American Bill of Rights. These texts gave the world a new political language and promised to foreshadow new revolutions, even in Britain. But as the French Revolution spiraled into chaos and slavery experienced a rebirth in America, it seemed that the budding code of individual rights would forever be matched by equally powerful systems of repression and control. David Andress reveals how these events and the men who led them stood at the threshold of the modern world. --From publisher description;  He snatched lighting from the heavens : Benjamin Franklin, the Enlightenment and France's crisis of the 1780s --  The best model the world has ever produced : governing America and Britain in the traumatic 1780s --  Vibrating between a monarchy and a corrupt oppressive aristocracy : The woes of France and America, 1787-8 --  The seeds of decay and corruption : Britain, empire and the king's madness, 1784-8 --  The base laws of servitude : empire, slavery and race in the 1780s --  That offspring of tyranny, baseness and pride : abolitionism, political economy and the people's rights --  Constant effort and continuous emulation : the revolutions of cotton and steam --  This general agitation of public insanity : France and Britain in the spring of 1789 --  Highly fraught with disinterested benevolence : empire, reason, race and profit in the Pacific --  Deep rooted prejudices, and malignity of heart, and conduct : President Washington and the war in the West --  No, sire, it is a revolution : from the Estates-General to the Bastille, France, May-July 1789 --  For all men, and for all countries : declaring rights in America and France --  Your houses will answer for your opinions : the French Revolution imperiled --  The greatest event it is that ever happened in the world : the British and the French Revolution -- Conclusion: 1789/1798

Table of Contents:      From acclaimed biographer Flora Fraser, the brilliant life of Napoleon's favorite sister. Celebrated for her looks, notorious for her passions, immortalized by Antonio Canova's statue, and always deeply loyal to her brother, Pauline Bonaparte Borghese is a fascinating figure in her own right. At the turn of the nineteenth century, she was considered by many to be the most beautiful woman in Europe. She shocked the continent with the boldness of her love affairs, her opulent wardrobe and jewels, and, most famously, her decision to pose nearly nude for Canova's sculpture. But just as remarkable as Pauline's private life was her fidelity to the emperor (if not to her husbands). No biographer has gone so deeply into the sources or so closely examined one of the seminal relationships of the man who shaped modern Europe. Fraser has cast new light on the Napoleonic era while crafting a dynamic portrait of a mesmerizing woman.--From publisher description

Table of Contents:      Frances Perkins is no longer a household name, yet she was one of the most influential women of the twentieth century. Frances Perkins was named Secretary of Labor by Franklin Roosevelt in 1933. As the first female cabinet secretary, at the height of the Great Depression, she spearheaded the fight to improve the lives of America's working people while juggling her own family responsibilities. Perkins's ideas became the cornerstones of the most important social welfare legislation in the nation's history, including unemployment compensation, child labor laws, the forty-hour work week, and Social Security. Also, as head of the Immigration Service, she fought to bring European refugees to safety. Based on eight years of research, extensive archival materials, new documents, and exclusive access to family and friends, this is the first complete portrait of a devoted public servant with a passionate personal life, a mother who changed the landscape of American business and society.--From publisher description.
