The Spellman Files: A Novel
New York: Simon & Schuster. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 2007. First Edition. Hardcover. 368 pages. A Spellman Mystery No. 1. Meet Isabel "Izzy" Spellman private investigator. This twenty-eight-year-old may have a checkered past littered with romantic mistakes excessive drinking and creative vandalism; she may be addicted to <I>Get Smart</I> reruns and prefer entering homes through windows rather than doors -- but the upshot is she's good at her job as a licensed private investigator with her family's firm Spellman Investigations. Invading people's privacy comes naturally to Izzy. In fact it comes naturally to all the Spellmans. If only they could leave their work at the office. To be a Spellman is to snoop on a Spellman; tail a Spellman; dig up dirt on blackmail and wiretap a Spellman. Part Nancy Drew part Dirty Harry Izzy walks an indistinguishable line between Spellman family member and Spellman employee. Duties include: completing assignments from the bosses aka Mom and Dad preferably without scrutiny; appeasing her chronically perfect lawyer brother often under duress; setting an example for her fourteen-year-old sister Rae who's become addicted to "recreational surveillance"; and tracking down her uncle who randomly disappears on benders dubbed "Lost Weekends". But when Izzy's parents hire Rae to follow her for the purpose of ascertaining the identity of Izzy's new boyfriend Izzy snaps and decides that the only way she will ever be normal is if she gets out of the family business. But there's a hitch: she must take one last job before they'll let her go -- a fifteen-year-old ice-cold missing person case. She accepts only to experience a disappearance far closer to home which becomes the most important case of her life. <I>The Spellman Files</I> is the first novel in a winning and hilarious new series featuring the Spellman family in all its lovable chaos. .

Lydia Becker, Women Suffrage
Very Rare 1886 Fundraising Handbill for Women's Suffrage No known copies in OCLC Worldcat
1886. Women's Suffrage Special handbill with donation slip for Manchester National Society for Women’s Suffrage MNSWS dated January 1886. 5.5 x 8.5 in. 2 page. The MNSWS was the first women’s suffrage organization in England founded in 1867 by Lydia Becker. Fair condition with yellowed page tidal line and loss to upper left corner small tears along top and bottom edge loss to lower right edge and crease and tear along top right corner. Recto includes donation form to pledge contributions. Verso lists leadership members for MNSWS along with a call for donations to support planned women's suffrage initiatives in the upcoming year. Very rare. At the time that this description is being written no copies are recorded in American institutions. OCLC search results are at best an estimate and can vary over time.<br /> <br /> This fundraising drive was part of a special campaign in 1886 to raise monetary support for planned women's enfranchisement proposals from William Woodall a member of British Parliament who also served on the MNSWS Executive Committee. They describe it being a "critical period of the movement" and that funds are needed to "carry on the work at this junction with an energy adequate to the occasion." It would take 32 more years before married women gained the vote in the 1918 Representation of the People Act and 10 years more before all women gained the vote. unknown

In recent years the part played by women in WW2 has increasingly become the subject of both popular history and scholarly analysis.The demands of Total Warin which every economic and industrial sinew of the nation was bent towards victorycalled forth an immense contribution from womennot only on the domestic front but also in the fieldsfactories and forcesfrequently in roles which would have been inconceivable in the years before 1939.This marvellously illustrated booka project long cherished by Dame Vera Lynnwhose indefatigable war work has become a legend present an anthology of women's experience throughout the warseen through their eyes and told in their own words.We follow nurses to the front line in the Western Desert and Normandy; learn how women Air Raid Wardens coped with the horrors of the Blitz and the V-weapons; and share the courage of Resistance workers and SOE agents in Occupied France. In 'Unsung Heroines'diarieslettersmemoirs and interviews combine to paint a vivid picture of wartime service and sacrifice.Some of these stories are harrowing others are full of humour and quirky detail.They provide living testimony to the bravery resourcefulness and sheer strength in adversity of women at war.For many of themthe war years werequite literallythe experience of a lifetime.In the words of one member of the Women's Auxiliary Air Force WAAF: 'None of us would think of ourselves as heroinesnot even the most decorated.We just carried on from day to day coping as best as we couldand incidentally met a lot of people from all over the world we wouldn't have done otherwiseand had a lot of fun on the way.'
