The History of Reading 曼古埃尔《阅读的历史》(ISBN=9780140166545)
This wide-ranging and erudite exploration of the topic ofreading is suffused with the spirit of Manguel's fellow Argentinian Jorge Luis Borges . Mangueltakes us through the history of reading as if leading us room byroom through the infinite library Borges constructed in one of hisfamous stories. Manguel's approach is not chronological, butthematic. His chapter topics jump from attempts to censor readingto the physical surroundings favored by readers, from thelimitations of translations to the esotericism of books written fora restricted readership. Throughout he moves easily through timeand geography to quote anecdotes and examples from diverse sources.Manguel's enthusiasm, and the impressive breadth of his reading,will make his readers eager to rush to the nearest library.

Washington(ISBN=9780143119968)
*Starred Review* With so much that can be said—and saidpositively—about this magisterial biography, it is difficult not towrite a review as long as the book itself. Given the distinction ofthe author, who wrote, among other single and collectivebiographies, the glowingly reviewed Alexander Hamilton (2004),readers can safely assume from the outset that what lies ahead ofthem is a vastly enlightening, overwhelmingly engaging treatment ofa great man. The subject of the book needs only, by way ofidentification, the one word that Chernow uses as his title:Washington. Another book on Washington? is a question renderedpointless by this one, which happens to be the author’smasterpiece. Definitive Washington is the point and effect of thisbiography. Our first president is thought of as more marble statuethan living, hurting, loving human; however, Chernow’s Washingtonstands not in the opposite corner as hot-blooded and animated.Washington spent a lifetime practicing control of his passions andemotions; his in

Tolkien and the Great War（ISBN=9780618574810）
"Very much the best book about J.R.R. Tolkien that has yet beenwritten." -- A.N. Wilson "A highly intelligent book ... Garth displays impressive skillsboth as researcher and writer." -- Max Hastings "It is a strange story that Garth tells, but he tells it clearlyand compellingly." -- Tom Shippey "Somewhere, I think, Tolkien is nodding in appreciation." --Charles Matthews, San Jose Mercury News "Gripping from start to finish and offers important new insights."- Library Journal "A labor of love in which journalist Garth combines a newsman'snose for a good story with a scholar's scrupulous attention todetail... Brilliantly argued." -- Daily Mail "Insight into how a writer turned academia into art, how deeplyfriendship supports and wounds us, and how the death anddisillusionment that characterized World War I inspired Tolkien'slush saga." - Detroit Free Press “To be caught in youth by 1914 was no less hideous an experiencethan in 1939 . . . by 1918 all but one of my close friends weredead.” So J.R.R.

FOUNDING MOTHERS & FATHERS(ISBN=9780679749776)
Founding Mothers Fathers is a scholarly study of theresponsibilities and rewards New World colonists assigned to adultssolely on the basis of gender. Historian Mary Beth Norton assertsthat a changing world-view caused the limited power wielded by ahandful of early colonial women to trickle away by the time theAmerican Constitution was framed. Since nearly every moment ofdaily life was subject to intense scrutiny by the entire community,the court records and other public documents Norton diligentlycombed to make her case are anything but dull, and the offenses andpunishments meted out speak loudly to the issues of genderedpower. Crystallizing the inflexibility of gender roles in the Americancolonies is the tale of a servant known as Thomasine or ThomasHall, alternately. Raised for two decades as a girl, Hall laterswitched several times between the clothes and roles of a man andthose of a woman. Although outraged townswomen repeatedly assuredcolonial authorities that Hall was physically male, his

Highly recommended for both students and generalreaders.? -- Library Journal (Starred Review) ?Barnaby Rogerson paints a vivid canvas, sweeping in scope and fullof memorable detail... The author is especially good at narratingin gripping, and often grisly, detail the great sieges and battlesthat punctuated this struggle. The book is furnished with excellentmaps, a useful chronological chart, numerous illustrations, and avery full bibliography. The writing is engaging and vivid, neverpedantic.

PERSONAL MEMOIRS(ISBN=9780375752285)
Destitute and wracked by throat cancer, Ulysses S. Grantfinished writing his Personal Memoirs shortly before his death in1885. Today their clear prose stands as a model of autobiography.Civil War soldiers are often celebrated for the high literaryquality of the letters they sent home from the front lines; Grant'sown book is probably the best piece of writing produced by aparticipant in the War Between the States. Apart from Lincoln, noman deserves more credit for securing the Northern victory thanGrant, and this chronicle of campaigns and battles tells how he didit. (The book also made a bundle of money for his family, which hadbeen reeling from the failure of Grant's brokerage firm.) This isnot an overview of the entire Civil War; as the North was beatingthe South on the third day of Gettysburg, for example, Grant was inMississippi capturing Vicksburg. But it is a great piece ofwriting, one that can be appreciated even by readers with littleinterest in military history. --John J. Miller
