On a November night in 1879 in Boston, Massachusetts, a lecture was given by Chief Standing Bear of the Ponca Tribe. It was attended by a forty-nine-year old woman who sat mesmerized as the dignified Indian told of the injustice that had driven his people from their ancestral lands. The next day the woman sent a cable to her husband at home in Colorado explaining that she would be delayed in returning. ¿Thankful you will be in the east on business next month,¿ she wrote, ¿situation with the Ponca Indians necessitates extended time here.¿ And so began a path that was to thrust Helen Hunt Jackson into the public eye as one of the foremost Indian policy reformers of the 19th century.From that moment in the Brunswick Hotel Jackson was imbued with the indignation that would be the motivating factor in everything she did, thought, or wrote for the rest of her life. ¿I cannot think of anything else from night to morning,¿ she wrote in a letter to a friend in 1880. ¿I shall be found with Indians engraved on my brain when I¿m dead. A fire has been kindled within me which will never go out.¿ Jackson and Chief Standing Bear became fast friends and she used her considerable talents as a writer to pen her most famous work, a book entitled A Century of Dishonor. The book chronicled the injustices perpetrated against Native Americans in the United States after the arrival of European settlers through the famed Indian Wars of the 1870s and their aftermath. Jackson¿s friendship with Chief Standing Bear and her daring efforts to publish a book about the broken promises of the United States government made with the Native Americans is a compelling story. During the three years it took Jackson to write the book attempts were twice made on her life. There was a lot of speculation about who tried to kill her, including many politicians who resented her association with Chief Standing Bear and the book she was working on, but no one was ever charged with the crimes.

Hilton Als grew up in a corner of Brooklyn scarred by riots, racial segregation and sexual prejudice. As a young teenager, he began to glimpse possibility in the different cultures and ways of being he encountered through high school; in the black men and white men who found ways to be together. As a burgeoning writer in a Manhattan pulsing with new culture - with hip hop, Basquiat, nightclubs and new wave - Hilton at last came together with the gay family he had longed for. The timing was not opportune: reports of a 'rare cancer' were beginning to trickle through the press. Part autobiography, part reportage, part cultural criticism, I Don't Remember weaves the impossible story of queer America in the age of the AIDs crisis. It is an elegy like no other for an unsung generation of gay men: of heroic lovers and friends, visionary makers, artists and creators. By turns lyrical, wry, and exquisite in its poetic, rapid-fire storytelling, it sings a song of the necessity of connection, and the grandness of human endeavor, especially when it comes to loving, and being loved, in the face of social limitations, stigma, and unspeakable tragedy.

The Ship-Her Story is one of his later works and was republished in 1899 with the permission of the proprietor of the Pall Mall Magazine. The book is full of anecdotes about important historical ships ranging from the Flying Dutchman to The Confederate Cruiser 'Alabama" and features delightful penciled drawings by Seppings Wright. Informational and sometimes humorous, The Ship-Her Story is a lively ode to what Russell calls "the most beautiful and sentient expression of the handiwork of man-- the sailing-ship."
