A Biography of an American Family

Jean H. Baker tells the compelling story of four generations of an American family and its most celebrated member, the high-minded, eloquent, and perennial also-ran icon of liberal politics, Adlai Ewing Stevenson II (1900-1965). The Stevensons is also a book about the relationship of a family to its times: With Baker's characteristically deft blend of the public and private, set on a broad canvas, the Stevenson story becomes an American saga.

Baker's biography "affords [Stevenson's] life a depth, historical and personal, that few other writers have acknowledged" (Kirkus Reviews).

Book details
Book overview
For some years, Mr. Borland has been writing quarterly articles for The Progressive, and here has assembled in chronological order twenty of these essays, each one treating a season of the year, the sequence covering the years 1964-1968. As always, Hal Borland makes us smell the woodsmoke in Autumn, feel the snow in January, taste the sap in the buckets in early spring, glory in the perfection of a summer dawn, and hear with a felling of mystery the honking of the wild geese in migration or the barking of a fox at midnight. When Hal Borland talks of the land he loves, the green-growing things that spring from it, we don't think in such cold terms as "balance of nature" or "conservation." We know now why the old Navajos sing: "Beauty all around me, with it I return. Now on the trail of beauty, there I return."

Bright Lights To See By

Bonjour!
Here's the thing of it: Paris has just been discovered by Eloise the little girl from the Plaza...
Here is what Eloise does in Paris: everything.
The effect is rawther extraordinaire. If you come to Paris with Eloise you will always be glad you did.
Eloise in Paris was first published in 1957, the second of the Eloise quartet, and an immediate bestseller. Kay Thompson and Hilary Knight traveled to Paris to research the book, and the illustrations are dotted with the celebrities they knew there: Richard Avedon takes Eloise's passport photograph; Christian Dior prods her tummy, while his young assistant, Yves Saint Laurent, looks on; Lena Horne sits at an outdoor café.
All four Eloise books by the late Kay Thompson and Hilary Knight -- Eloise: The Absolutely Essential Edition, Eloise in Paris, Eloise at Christmastime, and Eloise in Moscow -- are now being reissued by Simon & Schuster.
