Synopsis Hannah, Divided by : Adele Griffin
DIVUncommonly smart, uncommonly strange, Hannah is determined to become a success/divDIV In the one-room schoolhouse at Chadds Ford, Hannah Bennett is a sensation.

This illiterate farm girl will undertake the adventure of a lifetime, in hopes of winning a university scholarship. As long as she stays true to herself, there is nothing—not reading, writing, or the city of Philadelphia—that is beyond Hannah’s reach./divDIV /divDIVThis ebook features a personal history by Adele Griffin including rare images and never-before-seen documents from the author’s own collection./div

Synopsis Divided Mastery by : Jonathan D. Martin
Divided Mastery explores a curiously neglected aspect of the history of American slavery: the rental of slaves. Though few slaves escaped being rented out at some point in their lives, this is the first book to describe the practice, and its effects on both slaves and the peculiar institution. Martin reveals how the unique triangularity of slave hiring created slaves with two masters, thus transforming the customary polarity of master-slave relationships. Drawing upon slaveholders' letters, slave narratives, interviews with former slaves, legislative petitions, and court records, Divided Mastery ultimately reveals that slave hiring's significance was paradoxical. The practice bolstered the system of slavery by facilitating its spread into the western territories, by democratizing access to slave labor, and by promoting both production and speculation with slave capital. But at the same time, slaves used hiring to their advantage, finding in it crucial opportunities to shape their work and family lives, to bring owners and hirers into conflict with each other, and to destabilize the system of bondage. Martin illuminates the importance of the capitalist market as a tool for analyzing slavery and its extended relationships. Through its fresh and complex perspective, Divided Mastery demonstrates that slave hiring is critical to understanding the fundamental nature of American slavery, and its social, political, and economic place in the Old South.

Synopsis Did Bigfoot Steal Christmas? by : Mary Ellen Erickson
The escapades of the Peanut Butter Club continue in this exciting third installment of the Peanut Butter Club Mysteries. On this adventure, Abby and Josh take their four grandchildren and two friends to a northern Minnesota ski lodge called the Husky Hideaway to celebrate Christmas and to visit cousins Hannah and Basil. Soon they discover that intrigue and excitement await them there. The ski lodge has plenty of chores to keep the children busy, like chopping wood and caring for a bunch of Siberian husky race dogs. Even so, there's still time for fun. Thirteen-year-old Audrey has to make the tough decisions to keep her rambunctious twelve-year-old cousin Jenny and shy friend Missy in line. Denny Jenny's twin and his buddy Randy continue to take risks that bring them face-to-face with a big black wolf. Eight-year-old Ty is a source of delight as he and Laddie, the family dog, have one adventure after another, including a run-in with an angry bull moose. But the fun comes to a halt when the kids find out that someone is vandalizing the Husky Hideaway and trying to prevent Basil from winning the Northern Lights Sled Dog Race. Who could it be? Is the culprit Bigfoot? With good teamwork, true friendship, and some help from the adults, the Peanut Butter Club members search for clues to solve the mystery!
