Out of the mist on Duke of Gloucester Street came a figure in a cloak, breeches, and tricorn hat. He tipped his hat and said, “Good evening, my lady.”

In that moment, I felt time slip away, and the seeds of Rose’s story took root.

There's something about a pretty hardcover that just makes me so happy.

Who knew I would get giddy over a green silk ribbon bookmark?

Gold embossing? Swoon!

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.

Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.
