If your kid is more excited about history than pop culture... how about suiting up as honest Abe on Beggar's Night?

I'd picked up "The Last of the Nuba", a heavy volume of Leni Riefenstahl's photographs Nubian, Dinka, Shilluk, and Masai while in art school. Each image was so beautiful, powerful, and overwhelming that I could only study one image during each sitting. Before "The Last of the Nuba" I found it impossible to find any books which presented photographs of African customs, environment, and adornment which such grace, detail, and respect. Glad to see Leni Riefenstahl's Africa photographs published by Taschen

Pick any date from 1888 to 2001 and they make a puzzle from the front page of the New York Times of that day. Really neat. Think birthdays, anniversaries, or just world events.

To quote the friend who lent me this book: "Give it 75 pages or so..." And I would completely agree. The story starts off slow and you really start to wonder where it could possibly go and why in heaven you would continue to read for 600 pages. Seriously, who can't tell a story in less than 600 pages? But then it turns and all of a sudden you're completely entranced. I don't remember when it happened but ther have been plenty late nights for me where I just want to keep going and not go to sleep. The olde Scottish dialogue is a bit tricky to follow at first but I put the book down feeling like I'm thinking in a brogue in my head. It's a must read and I can't wait to explore more of Gabaldon's books.

I have read almost all of Philippa Gregory's historical fiction novels and have 110% loved every single one of them. I wish I had thought to read them in chronological order to save myself a bit of confusion over the timing and intricacies of Tudor England but I have now developed a slight obsession with the era and will read just about anything this woman writes. In case you'd like to read them in order (I think): The Constant Princess The Other Boleyn Girl The Boleyn Inheritance The Queen's Fool The Virgin's Lover

Bought this book by chance the day after my wedding before leaving for our honeymoon, largely because my maiden name is Stone and the title caught my eye as I was starting to grieve my previous name :-). It turned out to be a wonderful random pick- could be considered hokey that all the stories weave together but I find it a beautiful notion, that there are things connecting every one of us to the past through the ages. I was thoroughly entertained and especially intrigued by the cavemen!

It's a story that we're never told but should be known by women every where. We have no way of knowing if it's true or even close to true but I personally believe in every word. This is a book I treasure and read over and over.

Couldn't figure out how I hadn't seen any reviews of it. Recently did a theater version, so it's a tale dear to my heart. It's a timeless family story. A musical but well-timed. Classic!

A huge selection of costume rentals - over 4,500 - and a willingness to work with custom requests make Boston Costume a good bet if you have the idea but not the time to put it together.
