Lizzie Borden On Trial: Murder, Ethnicity, And Gender (Book Review), Kelly L. Marino
History Faculty Publications
Most Americans are familiar with the popular children’s rhyme about the accused Massachusetts woman Lizzie Borden and the 40, and subsequent 41, whacks she supposedly inflicted on her parents during their violent assassinations in the family home. However, few people know much about the actual history behind the Borden story. Over generations, popular depictions in literature, film, and television have skewed the details.

Jane Addams: Spirit In Action By Louise W. Knight, Mari Boor Tonn
Jane Addams: Spirit In Action By Louise W. Knight, Mari Boor Tonn
Rhetoric and Communication Studies Faculty Publications
The common temptation to perceive greatness as imprinted at birth, however, is skillfully disabused in Louise Knight’s meticulous, insightful,and often poignant biography, Jane Addams: Spirit in Action, which traces the complicated odyssey of a well-heeled idealist—initially conflicted by her material privilege, disappointed by gender-codes confining her ambitions, and haunted by familial ghosts and duties—into the pantheon of U.S. political idols.

‘Broken Brotherhood: The Rise And Fall Of The National Afro-American Council,’ By Benjamin R. Justesen, Eric S. Yellin
