Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

“Eleanor’s storytelling abilities kept me glued to the page . . . Be prepared for all the feels in this romantic, novel approach to the Regency subgenre.” —I Love Romance Blog A society lady—with a secret . . . Determined to help people, Letty Barton has a double life—she’s a trained doctor! No one must know “Dr. Hatfield” is actually a woman. Called to an emergency, she comes face-to-face with her patient’s brother, Lord Anthony Ashcroft. They’d once shared a spark-filled flirtation—now he’s a brooding, scarred war hero. But how long will it be before he recognizes her beneath her disguise and the sparks begin to fly once more? “I marveled at how Webster skillfully turns Tony’s thoughts 180 degrees through the strength of Letty’s character, her integrity as a person of intellect and resolution, and her dedication and brilliance as a physician. It is this aspect of the story that elevates it from the ordinary to the excellent and gets an ‘A’ from me. I highly recommend A Debutante in Disguise.” —All About Romance

Murder in the Mist

By: Eleanor Clarke Yukic

The romantic holiday to southern France that Jim Collins has so carefully planned with his girlfriend, Teri Hunter, becomes complicated and bizarre from the moment they arrive in Paris. Jim had thought that three weeks in Provence would provide a suitable setting to convince Teri to marry him. A romantic vacation? What a joke that turns out to be. Jim is tall--over six feet and built like a wide receiver, muscular, lean and tough. His hair and eyes are dark brown, his complexion well-tanned. The bump on his long, aquiline nose bears evidence of a previous break. His mouth is full and sensuous. Teri loves the feel of his lips on hers and other sensitive parts of her anatomy. Teri is an attractive, shapely woman with a lean, athletic build--muscular, but definitely female. Her bright green eyes are in sharp contrast to her lustrous coal black hair and well-tanned skin. Jim is passionately in love with her. All along their carefully planned festive route through southern France, the couple keeps bumping unexpectedly into their fellow New York to Paris air travelers and becoming involved in odd accidents and bizarre incidents. A glamorous but frightened redhead, who traveled on their air flight from New York to Paris, on learning that Jim is a policeman, tries to solicit his help. Before she can explain the reasons for her noticeable terror, her companion, an arrogant, powerful US Senator, effectively isolates her from further contact or possible assistance, and she's unable to elude his tight surveillance. Hiking in the woods of the French National Park in Le Camargue--a vast natural area where thousands of flamingos, herons, ducks and other fowls live in the salty sea water marshes along with beavers, racoons, squirrels, possums and herds of wild horses and cows--they hear gunshots, and Jim discovers the body of Meredith Prescott, the mysterious redhead who was so desperately seeking his help. Jim is at the top of the local police list of suspects. Their vacation continues to be marred by a host of improbable episodes--a kidnapped child in Lyon, the grandstand underneath them collapsing at a bull fight, thugs shadowing them, a hostile effort to foirce their car off the road high above the French Grand Canyon and other attempts on their lives as they visit Avignon, Arles, St. Remy, Aix-en-Provence, St. Tropez, Stes. Maries de la Mer, Moustiers Ste. Marie, Gordes and Paris. The couple doesn't understand why they keep finding themselves in these dangerous situations. Teri is frightened and Jim is torn between the desire to protect her and consumed with a need to unravel the mysterious events. Two French government agents, friends of Jim's from the past, pitch in to help solve the international web of intrigue in which Jim and Teri have become innocently ensnarled. The exciting climax erupts in the shawdow of Notre Dame Cathedral on the decks of a dinner cruise down the Seine.

Wilde's Women

How Oscar Wilde Was Shaped by the Women He Knew

By: Eleanor Fitzsimons

“A lively debut biography of the flamboyant Irish writer . . . focusing on the women who loved and supported him” (Kirkus Reviews). In this essential work, Eleanor Fitzsimons reframes Oscar Wilde’s story and his legacy through the women in his life, including such scintillating figures as Florence Balcombe; actress Lillie Langtry; and his tragic and witty niece, Dolly, who, like Wilde, loved fast cars, cocaine, and foreign women. Fresh, revealing, and entertaining, full of fascinating detail and anecdotes, Wilde’s Women relates the untold story of how a beloved writer and libertine played a vitally sympathetic role on behalf of many women, and how they supported him in the midst of a Victorian society in the process of changing forever. “Fitzsimons reminds us of the many writers, actresses, political activists, professional beauties and aristocratic ladies who helped shape the life and legend of the era’s greatest wit, esthete and sexual martyr . . . provide[s] a potted biography of the multitalented writer and gay icon . . . highly enjoyable.” —The Washington Post “Fitzsimons brilliantly calls attention to the progressive ideas and beliefs which drew the most daring and interesting women of the time to his side. The depth and painstaking care of Fitzsimons’ research is a fitting tribute to Wilde’s fascinating life and exquisite writing—and really, what better compliment is there than that?” —High Voltage

Alexander Von Humboldt and the United States

Art, Nature, and Culture

Alexander Von Humboldt and the United States

Art, Nature, and Culture

By: Eleanor Jones Harvey

The enduring influence of naturalist and explorer Alexander von Humboldt on American art, culture, and politics Alexander von Humboldt (1769–1859) was one of the most influential scientists and thinkers of his age. A Prussian-born geographer, naturalist, explorer, and illustrator, he was a prolific writer whose books graced the shelves of American artists, scientists, philosophers, and politicians. Humboldt visited the United States for six weeks in 1804, engaging in a lively exchange of ideas with such figures as Thomas Jefferson and the painter Charles Willson Peale. It was perhaps the most consequential visit by a European traveler in the young nation's history, one that helped to shape an emerging American identity grounded in the natural world. In this beautifully illustrated book, Eleanor Jones Harvey examines how Humboldt left a lasting impression on American visual arts, sciences, literature, and politics. She shows how he inspired a network of like-minded individuals who would go on to embrace the spirit of exploration, decry slavery, advocate for the welfare of Native Americans, and extol America's wilderness as a signature component of the nation's sense of self. Harvey traces how Humboldt's ideas influenced the transcendentalists and the landscape painters of the Hudson River School, and laid the foundations for the Smithsonian Institution, the Sierra Club, and the National Park Service. Alexander von Humboldt and the United States looks at paintings, sculptures, maps, and artifacts, and features works by leading American artists such as Albert Bierstadt, George Catlin, Frederic Church, and Samuel F. B. Morse. Published in association with the Smithsonian American Art Museum, Washington, DC Exhibition Schedule Smithsonian American Art Museum, Washington, DC September 18, 2020–January 3, 2021

Best American Novels of the Twentieth Century

Still Readable Today

By: Eleanor M. Gehres

What were the best novels written by Americans during the twentieth century? Best does not necessarily mean most influential at the time of publication, highest selling, or highest quality from an academic point of view. It means a book that a librarian, a teacher, or a well-read friend would recommend. Eleanor Gehres, Director of the Denver Public Library's Western History Department, profiles 150 books which she qualifies as the most enjoyable, most readable books in twentieth-century American literature. Each decade begins with a list of events, followed by the chosen books in alphabetical order of authors' names. This provides a framework to understand the world that the author was witnessing and allows the reader to compare contemporary books and authors. Her notes on these books make you want to read every one. - Publisher.
