Historical Heartthrobs: 50 Timeless Crushes — From Cleopatra to Camus

This book compiles photos and life stories of fifty of the sexiest men and women from history and asks the essential question: Would you really want to date them? Some are artists, some are scientists, and many are political or military leaders, but all have had a lasting impact on human life—and a sizable impact on their admirers as well. Each entry describes the period in which the heartthrob lived and includes essential stats, hilarious sidebars, and, of course, a "crushability" ranking: a measurement of how crush-worthy these people really are, based on their relative levels of heroism (or villainy).

Historically Inaccurate

It only takes one moment to change your life forever . . .After her mother’s deportation last year, all Soledad “Sol” Gutierrez wants is for her life to go back to normal. Everything’s changed—new apartment, new school, new family dynamic—and Sol desperately wants to fit in. When she joins her community college’s history club, it comes with an odd initiation process: break into Westray’s oldest house and steal . . . a fork?There’s just one problem: while the owners of the house aren’t home, their grandson Ethan is, and when he catches Sol with her hand in the kitchen drawer, she barely escapes with the fork intact. This one chance encounter irrevocably alters her life, and Sol soon learns that sometimes fitting in isn’t as important as being yourself—even if that’s the hardest thing she’s ever had to do.

History Of The U. S. Volume 1 Beginnings to 1877

In this history of the American people, we begin with the Native Americans and conclude with the Civil War and its aftermath. We show how the territory and people of the United States reflect an Indian, British, African, French, and Spanish heritage. We try to show the drama of the past, the agonies as well as the joys. We try to show the consequences of decisions made, and of decisions not made. Most of all, we try to make the past meaningful to you as you prepare yourself for life in the twenty-first century.
