Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A stunning, poetic memoir “that will transport readers to a time when a nation’s youth searched for meaning against the backdrop of the Vietnam War” (Publishers Weekly). When she joins a pair of hitchhikers on a trip to California, a young Midwestern woman embarks on a journey of memory, beauty, and realization. This true story, set in 1971, recounts a fateful, nine-day trip into the American counterculture that begins on a whim and quickly becomes a mission to unravel a tragic mystery. The narrator’s path leads her to Berkeley, San Francisco, Mill Valley, Big Sur, and finally to an abandoned resort motel that has become a down-on-its-luck commune in the desert of southern Colorado. The Glimpse Traveler describes with wry humor and deep feeling what it was like to witness a peculiar and impossibly rich time. “A perceptive, engaging, intimate chronicle of the early 1970s, the road-weary hippie hitchhikers, the anti-war sentiment, the dope-induced haze. Boruch . . . captures this very specific, significant time and place with exquisite clarity and lyric detail and description.” —Dinty Moore, author of Between Panic and Desire

Book excerpt: Synopsis Sylvanius Davidson Smith was born in Randolph County, Indiana January 15, 1882, to a poor farmer and his wife. His father, David Richmond Smith, was half Indian and his mother a relative of Stonewall Jackson. They were poor AShare-croppers. His life was happy and typical of poor farm folks of the times, until, when he was seven years old, he lost the sight in his right eye while playing with his cousins who had a bow and arrows. When he was eleven his father left the family, a wife and six children, taking his oldest son, a half brother to Sylvanius and the other five children with him. It became necessary for Sylvanius's mother to move her family to town and take in washings and ironings, trying to make a living for them. Sylvanius became her pardner by running errands for neighbors, earning a dime or a nickel, he helped a farmer weed gardens and cut wood. His mother began to call him her "pardner" and his siblings just called him "Pard". He had to drop out of school after the fifth grade because of a lack of money for clothes and school books. The first three years of their city life were a struggle to exist, and without help from an uncle, they couldn't have made it through the first cold winters. It helped when he got a paper route, but they were still the poorest of the poor until, at age fourteen, he got a job in a factory by lying about his age. Life was getting better for the family until his mother re-married when he was sixteen. The handsome man she married was a bum, he wouldn't keep a job, he drank and "womanized". Pard endured supporting him too for awhile; then, decided to find his own father and live with him. Pard, his father called him Vet, traveled with his father from Detroit to Canada, back to Michigan

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of The Christian Science Monitor's Ten Best Books of May "A highly original work of history . . . [Saltzman] has written a distinctive study that transcends both art and history and forces us to explore the connections between the two.” —Roger Lowenstein, The Wall Street Journal A captivatingstudy of Napoleon’s plundering of Europe’s art for the Louvre, told through the story of a Renaissance masterpiece seized from Venice Cynthia Saltzman’s Plunder recounts the fate of Paolo Veronese’s Wedding Feast at Cana, a vast, sublime canvas that the French, under the command of the young Napoleon Bonaparte, tore from a wall of the monastery of San Giorgio Maggiore, on an island in Venice, in 1797. Painted in 1563 during the Renaissance, the picture was immediately hailed as a masterpiece. Veronese had filled the scene with some 130 figures, lavishing color on the canvas to build the illusion that the viewers’ space opened onto a biblical banquet taking place on a terrace in sixteenth-century Venice. Once pulled from the wall, the Venetian canvas crossed the Mediterranean rolled on a cylinder; soon after, artworks commandeered from Venice and Rome were triumphantly brought into Paris. In 1801, the Veronese went on exhibition at the Louvre, the new public art museum founded during the Revolution in the former palace of the French kings. As Saltzman tells the larger story of Napoleon’s looting of Italian art and its role in the creation of the Louvre, she reveals the contradictions of his character: his thirst for greatness—to carry forward the finest aspects of civilization—and his ruthlessness in getting whatever he sought. After Napoleon’s 1815 defeat at Waterloo, the Duke of Wellington and the Allies forced the French to return many of the Louvre’s plundered paintings and sculptures. Nevertheless, The Wedding Feast at Cana remains in Paris to this day, hanging directly across from the Mona Lisa. Expertly researched and deftly told, Plunder chronicles one of the most spectacular art appropriation campaigns in history, one that sheds light on a seminal historical figure and the complex origins of one of the great museums of the world.
