    Description Original: DO NOT USE AS IS RUN THRU AI The Hound of the Baskervilles is the third of the four crime novels written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle featuring the detective Sherlock Holmes. Originally serialized in The Strand Magazine from August 1901 to April 1902, it is set largely on Dartmoor in Devon in Englands West Country and tells the story of an attempted murder inspired by the legend of a fearsome, diabolical hound of supernatural origin. Sir Charles Baskerville is dead, was the ghoulish giant hound that folklore said has haunted generations of the Baskerville family be responsible? Sherlock Holmes and his companion Dr. Watson investigate the case- what will win out: the supernatural or the trademark rationalism of Sherlock Holmes? This was the first appearance of Holmes since his apparent death in “The Final Problem”, and the success of The Hound of the Baskervilles led to the characters eventual revival. One of the most famous stories ever written, in 2003, the book was listed as number 128 of 200 on the BBCs The Big Read poll of the UKs “best-loved novel. In 1999, it was listed as the top Holmes novel, with a perfect rating from Sherlockian scholars of 100.

    Description Original: DO NOT USE AS IS RUN THRU AI Utopia ( Libellus vere aureus, nec minus salutaris quam festivus, de optimo rei publicae statu deque nova insula Utopia translated as A little, true book, not less beneficial than enjoyable, about how things should be in a state and about the new island Utopia ) is a work of fiction and satire laying out the philosophy of Thomas More. Originally published in Latin in 1516, the book opens with a dialogue between traveler Raphael Hythloday and More wherein Hythloday explains an island where he has lived for the last five years, Utopia and inherent in his explanation of this society is a strong criticism of then-modern practices in England and other Catholicism-dominated countries. Through this invented dialogue, it becomes apparent that More is asking the reader to imagine a Utopian society that is pagan and governed entirely by reason leading to an orderly and dignified state which he contrasts with the current situation of Christian Europe which he concludes is overwrought by self-interest and greed.

    Description Original: DO NOT USE AS IS – RUN THRU AI Oliver Twist; or, the Parish Boy's Progress is Charles Dickens's second novel, and was published as a serial from 1837 to 1839 and released as a three-volume book in 1838, before the serialization ended. The story centers on orphan Oliver Twist, born in a workhouse and sold into apprenticeship with an undertaker. After escaping, Oliver travels to London, where he meets the "Artful Dodger", a member of a gang of juvenile pickpockets led by the elderly criminal Fagin. Oliver Twist contains an unromantic portrayal of criminals and their sordid lives and exposes the cruel treatment of the many orphans in London in the mid-19th century. The alternative title, The Parish Boy's Progress, alludes to Bunyan's The Pilgrim's Progress, as well as the 18th-century caricature series by William Hogarth, A Rake's Progress and A Harlot's Progress. In this early example of the social novel, Dickens satirizes the hypocrisies of his time, including child labor, domestic violence, the recruitment of children as criminals, and the presence of street children. The novel may have been inspired by the story of Robert Blincoe, an orphan whose account of working as a child laborer in a cotton mill was widely read in the 1830s. It is likely that Dickens's own experiences as a youth contributed as well.

    Description Original: DO NOT USE AS IS RUN THRU AI Persuasion is the last novel fully completed by Jane Austen. It was published at the end of 1817, six months after her death. Anne Elliot, a young Englishwoman of twenty-seven years, whose family rents their home out to an Admiral and his wife in order to lower their debts and lower their living expenses. The wifes brother, Navy Captain Frederick Wentworth, was engaged to Anne in 1806, but the engagement was broken when Anne was “persuaded” by her friends and family to end their relationship. Seven years later, Anne and Captain Wentworth, both single and unattached, meet again, setting the scene for many humorous encounters as well as a second, well-considered chance at love and marriage for Anne in her second “bloom”. The novel was well-received in the early 19th century, but its greater fame came later in the century and continued into the 20th and 21st centuries. Persuasion has been the subject of several adaptations, including four made-for-television adaptations, theatre productions, radio broadcasts, and other literary works.

    Description Original: DO NOT USE AS IS RUN THRU AI Kate Chopin s novel The Awakening, initially titled A Solitary Soul was first published in 1899. Set in the postbellum South in America, the story depicts a young mother s sexual awakening and struggle to achieve personal freedoms in this oppressive environment. When first published it was nearly uniformly condemned because of its frank portrayal of marital infidelity and female sexuality. In modern times, it is considered a breakthrough and the turning point of feminist fiction.

    Description Original: In what would become one of five autobiographies written during his lifetime, The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, the former slave recounts his journey from being born into slavery around 1818 until his eventual escape to New York in 1838. Douglass was a prolific writer and orator whose many speeches and essays advocated not only for the abolition of slavery but for women s voting rights and human rights. This book became one of the most influential and inspirational stories in the areas of human and civil rights. This is a powerful tale of the cumulative effect of positive changes and the ability of a man to shape his own destiny. Douglass understood the power of education stating, Once you learn to read, you will be forever free. His persuasive writings and insightful criticism of the brutality and unjustness of slavery were used as an example by abolitionists of his day as a powerful counterargument to the slave holder s claim that slaves did not possess the intellectual capacity to become productive, responsible American citizens.

    Description Original: DO NOT USE AS IS – RUN THRU AI Thus Spake Zarathustra: A Book for All or None is a philosophical novel by the writer/philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche which was originally published in four parts between 1883 and 1891. Zarathustra is nominally based on Zoroaster the Persian founder of the religion Zoroastrianism. A prophet and a sage, Zarathustra, has lived in the mountains for years but leaves his solitude to go to a village and teach others about the Overman, his great truth of humanity fully realized. He touts the concepts of Ubermensch, as it is known in German, as the life for which all men should strive. Nietzsche readers will recognize his call for the will to power and eternal recurrence. His philosophy is particularly notable for his conclusion that God is dead and Christianity impedes men from finding true communion with themselves and with nature. Nietzsche has said this was his favorite of all his books, at once a parody and a tragedy and he was well aware, as made clear by his subtitle, a Book for All and None, that readers likely may not understand it.

    Description Original: DO NOT USE AS IS RUN THRU AI Pygmalion is a play by George Bernard Shaw, named after a Greek mythological figure. It was first presented on stage to the public in 1913 and was incredibly well-received on its New York debut in 1914. Shaw was inspired by the Greek mythological figure, Pygmalion, who fell in love with one of his sculptures, which then came to life. In his telling, a professor of phonetics, Henry Higgins makes a bet with his friend Colonel Pickering that he could take an awkward and unrefined cockney girl and transform her into a high society woman who would be the toast of their elite London society simply by teaching her manners and how to speak proper English. The play went on to become one of Shaw s most popular works and one of the most well-known English comedies of all time. There have been numerous famous adaptations of Pygmalion, most notably My Fair Lady, first a musical in 1956 for which Julie Andrews won a Tony Award and later for the 1964 film based on that musical which starred Audrey Hepburn and garnered eight Academy Awards.

    Description wiki: News from Nowhere (1890) is a classic work combining utopian socialism and soft science fiction written by the artist, designer and socialist pioneer

    Description Good Reads: ews from Nowhere(1890) is the best-known prose work of William Morris and the only significant English utopia to be written since Thomas Mores. The novel describes the encounter between a visitor from the nineteenth century, William Guest, and a decentralized and humane socialist future. Set over a century after a revolutionary upheaval in 1952, these Chapters from a Utopian Romance recount his journey across London and up the Thames to Kelmscott Manor, Morriss own country house in Oxfordshire. Drawing on the work of John Ruskin and Karl Marx, Morriss book is not only an evocative statement of his egalitarian convictions but also a distinctive contribution to the utopian tradition. Morriss rejection of state socialism and his ambition to transform the relationship between humankind and the natural world, give News from Nowhere a particular resonance for modern readers. This text is based on the 1891 version, incorporating the extensive revisions made by Morris to the first edition.

    Description Penquin: he Nowhere of News from Nowhere (1890) is England in 2102, an ideal pastoral society born out of revolution. It is as compelling a dream of the future as the nightmares of Brave New World and Nineteen Eighty-Four. Exhilaratingly, it reminds us that nothing is inevitable about the way we live now or in 1890.

    Description wiki: The Story of Mankind was written and illustrated by Dutch-American journalist, professor, and author Hendrik Willem van Loon and published in 1921. In 1922, it was the first book to be awarded the Newbery Medal for an outstanding contribution to childrens literature. Written for Van Loons children (Hansje and Willem), The Story of Mankind tells in brief chapters the history of western civilization beginning with primitive man, covering the development of writing, art, and architecture, the rise of major religions, and the formation of the modern nation-state. Van Loon explains in the book how he selected what and what not to include by subjecting all materials to the question: Did the person or event in question perform an act without which the entire history of civilization would have been different? After the books first edition in 1921, Van Loon published an updated edition in 1926 which included an extra essay entitled “After Seven Years”, about the effects of World War I and another update in 1938 with a new “Epilogue.” Since Van Loons death in 1944, The Story of Mankind has been added to extensively by his son, Gerrit van Loon. The most recent version by Robert Sullivan (2014) covers events up to the early 2010s

    Description Good Reads: Winner of the first John Newbery Medal, this renowned classic is now updated for the millennium. Hendrik Willem van Loons ability to convey history as a fascinating tale of adventure has endeared this book to countless readers.

The governor sent his cousin, Don Fernando de Castro, with letters and despatches to the viceroy of Canton and to that of Chincheo, where many of the Chinese who had seized the galley and killed Governor Gomez Perez, were thought to be found. Supposing that they had gone there with the galley, the governor requested the Chinese authorities to deliver the culprits for punishment, and to restore the royal standard, artillery, and other things which had been seized.

    Description wiki: is a book by Charles Dickens. It first appeared in serial form in Household Words, running from 25 January 1851 to 10 December 1853. Dickens also published the work in book form in three volumes: the first volume on 20 December 1851, the second on 25 December 1852 and the third on 24 December 1853.[1] Although the volumes were published in December, each was postdated the following year. They bore the titles: Volume I. England from the Ancient Times, to the Death of King John (1852) Volume II. England from the Reign of Henry the Third, to the Reign of Richard the Third (1853) Volume III. England from the Reign of Henry the Seventh to the Revolution of 1688 (1854) Dickens dedicated the book to “My own dear children, whom I hope it may help, bye and bye, to read with interest larger and better books on the same subject”. The history covered the period between 50 BC and 1689, ending with a chapter summarising events from then until the accession of Queen Victoria.[2] In a letter to his friend Douglas William Jerrold, Dickens confessed that he was composing the book so that he could prevent his children from embracing conservatism: I am writing a little history of England for my boy…For I dont know what I should do, if he were to get hold of any conservative or High Church notions; and the best way of guarding against any such horrible result is, I take it, to wring the parrots neck in his very cradle.”[3] A Childs History was included in the curricula of British schoolchildren well into the 20th century, with successive editions published from 1851 to

    Description wiki: A Journal of the Plague Year: Being Observations or Memorials, Of the most Remarkable Occurrences, As well Publick as Private, which happened in London During the last Great Visitation In 1665, commonly called A Journal of the Plague Year is a book by Daniel Defoe, first published in March 1722. It is an account of one mans experiences of the year 1665, in which the bubonic plague struck the city of London in what became known as the Great Plague of London, the last epidemic of plague in that city. The book is told somewhat chronologically, though without sections or chapter headings, and with frequent digressions and repetitions.[1] Presented as an eyewitness account of the events at the time, it was written in the years just prior to the books first publication in March 1722. Defoe was only five years old in 1665 when the Great Plague took place, and the book itself was published under the initials H. F. and is probably based on the journals of Defoes uncle, Henry Foe, who, like H. F., was a saddler who lived in the Whitechapel district of East London. In the book, Defoe goes to great pains to achieve an effect of verisimilitude, identifying specific neighbourhoods, streets, and even houses in which events took place. Additionally, it provides tables of casualty figures and discusses the credibility of various accounts and anecdotes received by the narrator. The book is often compared to the actual, contemporary accounts of the plague in the diary of Samuel Pepys. Defoes account, which appears to include much research, is far more systematic and detailed than Pepyss first-person account.

    Description Good Reads: Actually written sixty years after the plague of 1665 swept through London, Defoe brings the city to life in all of its hardship and fear. With a wealth of detail, “A Journal of the Plague Year” seems almost a firsthand account, taking readers through the neighborhoods, houses, and streets that have drastically changed with the rising death toll. The bustle of business and errands gives way to doors marked with the cross to signify a house of death, as well as the dead-carts transporting those struck down to the mass graves as the dead rise in number to nearly 100,000. As the epidemic progresses and the narrator encounters more stories of isolation and horror, Defoe reveals his masterful balance as both a historical and imaginative writer.

    Description Penquin: Defoe s account of the bubonic plague that swept London in 1665 remains as vivid as it is harrowing. Based on Defoe s own childhood memories and prodigious research, A Journal of the Plague Year walks the line between fiction, history, and reportage. In meticulous and unsentimental detail it renders the daily life of a city under siege; the often gruesome medical precautions and practices of the time; the mass panics of a frightened citizenry; and the solitary travails of Defoe s narrator, a man who decides to remain in the city through it all, chronicling the course of events with an unwavering eye. Defoe s Journal remains perhaps the greatest account of a natural disaster ever written.

    Description wiki: February 15, 1820 March 13, 1906) was an American social reformer and womens rights activist who played a pivotal role in the womens suffrage movement. Born into a Quaker family committed to social equality, she collected anti-slavery petitions at the age of 17. In 1856, she became the New York state agent for the American Anti-Slavery Society. In 1851, she met Elizabeth Cady Stanton, who became her lifelong friend and co-worker in social reform activities, primarily in the field of womens rights. In 1852, they founded the New York Womens State Temperance Society after Anthony was prevented from speaking at a temperance conference because she was female. In 1863, they founded the Womens Loyal National League, which conducted the largest petition drive in United States history up to that time, collecting nearly 400,000 signatures in support of the abolition of slavery. In 1866, they initiated the American Equal Rights Association, which campaigned for equal rights for both women and African Americans. In 1868, they began publishing a womens rights newspaper called The Revolution. In 1869, they founded the National Woman Suffrage Association as part of a split in the womens movement. In 1890, the split was formally healed when their organization merged with the rival American Woman Suffrage Association to form the National American Woman Suffrage Association, with Anthony as its key force. In 1876, Anthony and Stanton began working with Matilda Joslyn Gage on what eventually grew into the six-volume History of Woman Suffrage. The interests of Anthony and Stanton diverged somewhat in later years, but the two remained close friends. In 1872, Anthony was arrested for voting in her hometown of Rochester, New York, and convicted in a widely publicized trial. Although she refused to pay the fine, the authorities declined to take further action. In 1878, Anthony and Stanton arranged for Congress to be presented with an amendment giving women the right to vote. Introduced by Sen. Aaron A. Sargent (R-CA), it later became known colloquially as the Susan B. Anthony Amendment. It was eventually ratified as the Nineteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution in 1920. Anthony traveled extensively in support of womens suffrage, giving as many as 75 to 100 speeches per year and working on many state campaigns. She worked internationally for womens rights, playing a key role in creating the International Council of Women, which is still active. She also helped to bring about the Worlds Congress of Representative Women at the Worlds Columbian Exposition in Chicago in 1893. When she first began campaigning for womens rights, Anthony was harshly ridiculed and accused of trying to destroy the institution of marriage. Public perception of her changed radically during her lifetime, however. Her 80th birthday was celebrated in the White House at the invitation of President William McKinley. She became the first female citizen to be depicted on U.S. coinage when her portrait appeared on the 1979 dollar coin.
