                                      Paperback. First Printing. ISBN: 0805777768 (created as seperate item because this edition is a SOFTCOVER,245 pages). The Great Commoner William Jennings Bryan, secretary of sate under President Woodrow Wilson and three times a Democratic presidential candidate was a vocal representative of the common folk. Harboring a deep suspicion of big business and organized wealth, Bryan championed Populist and Progressive causes such as Prohibition, woman suffrage, and farm aid. His 1908 stump speech on direct democracy for the people, Shall the People Rule? is as relevant today as it was eighty years ago. His colorful, controversial, and frequently caricatured personality and political style combine to make William Jennings Bryan an exciting figure in the history of American civilization, one much in need of the balanced and sensitive reappraisal offered here by Leroy Ashby. Probing Bryans seemingly erratic swings from radical progressivism to his controversial defense of religious fundamentalism at the Scopes of Democracy firmly places Bryan in the climate of the Progressive era he so decisively characterized. A Chronology and bibliographic essay provide valuable research tools for the interested student.

                                        5 out of 5 stars If you think the world is safe for democracy, read this book.......2002-02-15

                                        I live in Atlanta, Ga., and have watched Rep. Drenner since she has been a member of the Georgia House of Representatives.

                                        After reading this book, I know why she needs to stay in office. Her story is about somebody who chose not to sit passively while the political power structure of Georgia and of the rest of the country maintained the status quo.

                                        She chose to get in the game and improve the system that makes the rules with its own rules. Her story offers a unique perspective--the one from the inside.

                                        She describes in vivid detail what it feels like to have the mandate of the people but face blatant discrimination, if not harassment, from those who are her political peers.

                                        What I took away from this book is a real understanding of why each individual must actively engage in the American democratic system and why, most importantly, each individual can bring about tangible change through "The Power of One."

                                                  Book Description

                                                  Mary Wollstonecraft (1759-1797) was the founder of modern feminism -- in her time,the most famous woman in Europe and America. In this exciting new biography, Lyndall Gordon proposes that at each stage of a passionate and courageous life -- as teacher, writer, lover, and traveler -- Mary Woll-stonecraft was an original. She had advanced ideas on education, and her views on single motherhood, family responsibilities, working life, domestic affections, friendships, and sexual relationships now look astonishingly modern. She tested new ways a man and a woman might come to know each other and live together. "Imagination must lead the senses, not the senses the imagination," she told her American lover, Gilbert Imlay, and repeated to her husband, William Godwin.

                                                  Vindication is the first biography to show this remarkable woman at full strength and bring out the range as well as the reverberations of her genius in the following and subsequent generations. Here is the drama of Wollstonecraft's life as a governess in an aristocratic family in Ireland, as an independent writer in London, as an on-the-scene observer of the French Revolution, and as a daring traveler to Scandinavia on the trail of an unsolved crime. Although she died young, her spirit and unconventional ideas lived on in the lives of her daughter, Mary Shelley, and three other heirs who had to contend with a counter-revolutionary age. Vindication offers new evidence for the influence of early American political thought in England and demonstrates for the first time the profound effect of Mary Wollstonecraft's own writing, especially her Vindication of the Rights of Woman, on American figures of the day, among them John and Abigail Adams. This groundbreaking biography follows the colorful wheelings and dealings of young American adventurers like Joel Barlowand the elusive frontiersman Imlay, who sought their fortunes amid the tumultuous events of late-eighteenth-century Europe and whose clandestine service to the fledglingAmerican government is newly explored.

                                                  This is a brilliantly told story, moving on from the issue of rights to larger questions that still lie beyond us: What is woman's nature? What will she contribute to civilization? Lyndall Gordon mounts a spirited defense of Mary Wollstonecraft, whose previous biographers have often doubted her integrity, her stability, and the exhilarating experiment that was her life. Vindication probes these doubts, measures Wollstonecraft's life against her own strengths instead of the weakness that sometimes held her back, and reinterprets her for the twenty-first century.

                                                  3 out of 5 stars A frustrating biography.......2006-09-25

                                                  While I respect Gordon's decision to stick closely to journals and letters in writing her biography of Mary Wollstonecraft, I wondered why she offered so little in the way of the broader political world Mary was a part of it in the late 18th century, especial since she responded to it in her writings. The author offers little in regard to the meetings that were most intriguing, like the dinner parties hosted by her publisher, Joseph Johnson, that included leading revolutionary figures like Thomas Paine and her eventual husband, William Godwin. Gordon does talk about the revolutionary ferment in Britain at the time, but doesn't expand it into a broader discussion on how Mary's writings reflected these concerns, and how she managed to effectively escape censure, unlike Thomas Paine, who found himself being tried for sedition in absentia. What we get is a set of very intriguing stories, such as her long affair with Gilbert Imlay that took her to France and Scandinavia, that wet one's appetite but fails to satisfies one interest in her as a revolutionary figure.

                                                  Mary Wollstonecraft reached a broad audience with her writings, in particular A Vindication of the Rights of Woman, which was in response to the new French government's Rights of Man. She, like other women who were part of the revolution, felt left out when the new government essentially turned its back on the rights of women. Mary avoided house arrest by secretly marrying Gilbert Imlay, an American in Paris. Gordon sets up many of the situations that befell Mary in Paris and her frustrating relationship with Imlay that came for nought after a long voyage to Scandinavia trying to recover his losses in regard to an ill-fated shipping venture. As with her brothers and sisters, Mary felt a strong responsibility to the man she loved, but this feeling was never fully reciprocated.

                                                  Gordon shows in detail how Mary had to deal with the paternalistic world of the late 18th century, from her good-for-nothing father, to her miserly elder brother, and the varoious relationships of her friends and family. All this is well and good, but Mary was a political writer, and we get so little of her actual thoughts on government, which were the focus of her many writings.

                                                  After all, Mary was one of the early suffragettes, and her writings form the cornerstone of feminist writings in the 19th century. Gordon alludes to Jane Austin and Virginia Woolf and other writers she felt were influenced by Mary in one way or another. Gordon had a pension for comparing Mary's real life to the fictional lives Austin had created in her novels. Time and time again, we read about what Mary suffered through, lending emotional weight to her writings, but there wasn't any real attempt to probe the intellectual origins of these writings. Mary may have saw herself as a new genus of woman, but her writings didn't come out of an intellectual void, and that is what is missing in this biography.

                                                  3 out of 5 stars Disappointing account of a great life.......2005-12-25

                                                  This book is not the place to begin if you are not already convinced of Mary Wollstonecraft's genius. I began reading to find the author referring to Wollstonecraft as a genius without any preface for this claim. I was immediately thrown out of the narrative by this assumption. The author describes each of the books that Wollstonecraft wrote without bothering to asses their merit for the reader, are we to take for granted that they were great literary works? I found this lack of any sort of judgment of the subject strange. The book similarly failed to engage me in the narrative. The author leaves her subject for long discussions of the history of the family that she was a governess for. This subject did not have enough baring on Wollstonecraft's life to make it worth including. That such a unique and groundbreaking woman should have her life reduced to so dull a narrative, with so many assumption about her life disappointed me. The book itself failed to hold my interest.

                                                  5 out of 5 stars Vindication.......2005-08-22

                                                  This is a beautifully written biography about a fascinating woman. While she was a serious thinker in advance of her times, her life was of the stuff that would make a good romantic novel. The backdrop is not only England and Ireland, but the French Revolution and includes the machinations of various representatives of the fledgling United States stationed in Europe. No less interesting are the chapters on the women who were her biologic and ideological heirs including her second daughter who married Shelley and wrote Frankenstein.

                                                  It was the philosopher Hegel who first saw the enigmatic significnce of the generation of the French Revolution, calling it a birth time. Something new was coming into existence, something more than the failed revolutions that rode the tide. For reasons that almost demand the insights of the philosophy of history, that generation was one of the most innovative in world history, and the case of Mary Wollstonecraft is a perfect example of the sudden appearance of a creative individual steeping into history to break the frozen mould of mechanical culture. Thus, almost two centuries before its time, we see the prophetic birth of feminism and the gestating protest against the place of women in society. This short biography is an excellent snapshot of someone appearing as if from nowhere, not unlike Thomas Paine, to proclaim the new age of women. The portrait of the life of Wollstonecraft, from the early sufferings and explotations in a patriarchal family, to her involvement as an oberver of the French Revolution, concluding with her brief life with Godwin(and this account concludes with some material on her later descendants) is crisply told, and leaves one wondering at the symphony of effects that so suddenly gave birth to modern freedoms. We see that while feminism seems to exist currently in a postmodern context, its primordial onset is deeply braided with the dawn of modernity.

                                                            This book captures every aspect of Mary Shelley's life that evolved into her fictive imagination. The readers are introduced to much less popular works such as The Last Man, Lodore and Mathilda which actually give a unique perspective to Frankenstein. For myself there were some places I felt I was given too many examples, I had already figured out Mellor's point several paragraphs before, but the book makes every possible attempt to explain the novels so that everyone understands.

                                                            5 out of 5 stars Excellent resource on Mary Shelley and Frankenstein.......1996-06-22

                                                            This book is an excellent text for the study of Mary Shelley and Frankenstein. It will fascinate those interested in the life of Mary Shelley, students studying Frankenstein, and those interested in learning about an 19th Century woman writer, who wrote a novel about a monster that has since become a universal archetype of isolation and societal rejection. In this text, it is demonstrated how events in Mary Shelley's life, her fears of motherhood, and her study of current philosophic and scientific theories all contributed to the development of the novel. Mary Shelley is proven to be an intelligent and complex woman writer of the Romantic Literary tradition

                                                            "I laughed, I cried, I couldn't put it down. A must read for doctors and patients alike!"—Catherine ReedÂ-Beaudouin, MD

                                                            Whether you are affected by breast cancer or another health crisis, this book will help. Betty Toben Warden's candid story will warm your heart; her spunky spirit will inspire you. The way she offers her wisdom and wit will make you feel like she's talking to you.

                                                            This book isn't just about cancer; it's about finding your way along the road of life. It's about keeping your sense of self through difficult times, and it's about the importance of loving—and laughing.

                                                            Same Song Second Verse is an intimate account of the author's two bouts of breast cancer, the second time just one year after the first. Each was DCIS (ductal carcinoma in situ) requiring a lumpectomy followed by radiation treatments. Ms. Warden learned things from the first time—both practical and spiritual—which helped her get through it all over again. Now, she shares that profound experience with humor and poignancy to help others face their own trials. Many specific tips are provided for everyone involved.

                                                            Before I read your book I would have said that only a cancer patient could have known what having cancer is all about. However, you managed to make the whole experience understandable.
                                                            While my surgery was not like either of yours the radiation treatments were the same.
                                                            Your suggestions for friends and family are a god's send for all.
                                                            Thank you so much for your succinct writing of a complex problem.

                                                            My mother has been going threw an awful cancer and depression, and I've been bringing her any books I can find to help her cope. This one was a real blessing. Most of the other books were either too clinical or too preachy. This one was just wonderful. It felt natural right from the beginning -- almost as if you were talking to an old friend. It really made my mom feel better. The experiences related by Ms. Warden were immediately accessible and recognizable to her, and Ms. Warden's warm, sensible spin on everything was perfect. Not too much, not too little -- just the right viewpoint to help my mom find her way back home. Thanks.

I bought this book for myself and a friend who has breast cancer. Thanks to Betty's book I will have a deeper understanding on the support my friend will need in the upcoming months.

                                                            Thank you Betty, and may the sun continue to shine upon you.
