Prisons and Prisoners by Constance Lytton

Prisons and Prisoners by Constance Lytton

Constance Lytton worked along Emmeline Pankhurst for the cause of women’s suffrage in England. Upset that she was getting preferential treatment by the authorities, she assumed a pseudonym (Jane Wharton) so that her titled status wouldn’t be obvious. This book chronicles her involvement in the suffrage movement, including her arrest and subsequent incarceration at Holloway Prison, a place notorious for the poor treatment of the women in their charge.

The Women of The American Revolution – Volume 1 by E. F. Ellet

Their patriotic sacrifices were made with an enthusiasm that showed the earnest spirit ready on every occasion to appear in generous acts. Some gave their own property, and went from house to house to solicit contributions for the army.

Three Soldiers

Three Soldiers by John Dos Passos

Three Soldiers by John Dos Passos

Three Soldiers, the second novel by John Dos Passos, follows the experiences of several young Americans thrown into the confusion and brutality of World War I.

Written when the author was just twenty-three, it was key to the development of a realistic depiction of war in American literature, and earned Dos Passos, later named by Jean-Paul Sartre “the greatest living writer of our time”, important early attention.

Critic H L Menken said of it: “no war story can be written in the United States without challenging comparison with it–and no story that is less meticulously true will stand up to it.

They saw, no doubt, substantially what Dos Passos saw, but it took his bold realism to disentangle their recollections from the prevailing buncombe and sentimentality
