Historian McGuire aims to rewrite the history of the civilrights movement by highlighting sexual violence in the broadercontext of racial injustice and the fight for freedom. Parks workedas an investigator for the NAACP branch office in Montgomery,Alabama, specializing in cases involving black women who had beensexually assaulted by white men––cases that often went untried andwere the political opposite of the allegations of black men rapingwhite women ending in summary lynching with or without trials.McGuire traces the history of several rape cases that triggeredvehement resistance by the NAACP and other groups, including the1975 trial of Joan Little, who killed a white jailer who sexuallyassaulted her.

In this signal work of history, Bancroft Prize winner andPulitzer Prize finalist Lizabeth Cohen shows how the pursuit ofprosperity after World War II fueled our pervasive consumermentality and transformed American life. Trumpeted as a means to promote the general welfare, massconsumption quickly outgrew its economic objectives and becamesynonymous with patriotism, social equality, and the AmericanDream. Material goods came to embody the promise of America, andthe power of consumers to purchase everything from vacuum cleanersto convertibles gave rise to the power of citizens to purchasepolitical influence and effect social change. Yet despiteundeniable successes and unprecedented affluence, mass consumptionalso fostered economic inequality and the fracturing of societyalong gender, class, and racial lines. In charting the complexlegacy of our “Consumers’ Republic” Lizabeth Cohen has written abold, encompassing, and profoundly influential book.

Dalin and John F.Rothmann show how al-Husseini ingratiated himself with his hero,Adolf Hitler, becoming, with his blonde hair and blue eyes, an

As a senior foreign correspondent for The Times ofLondon, Janine di Giovanni was a firsthand witness to the brutaland protracted break-up of Yugoslavia. With unflinchingsensitivity, Madness Visible follows the arc of the wars inthe Balkans through the experience of those caught up in them:soldiers numbed by the atrocities they commit, women driven todespair by their life in paramilitary rape camps, civilians (diGiovanni among them) caught in bombing raids of uncertain origin,babies murdered in hate-induced rage. Di Giovanni’s searing memoir examines the turmoil of the Balkansin acute detail, and uncovers the motives of the leaders whocreated hell on earth; it raises challenging questions about ethnicconflict and the responsibilities of foreign governments in timesof mass murder. Perceptive and compelling, this unique work ofreportage from the physical and psychological front lines makes themadness of war wholly visible.
