The Count of Monte Cristo |
Alexandre Dumas (1802 - 1870) |
A classic adventure story often considered, along with The Three Musketeers, as Dumas' best work and one of the best novels of all time. Amazingly the plot is based on a true story. |

The Crisis |
Winston Churchill (1871 - 1947) |
Publishers Weekly #1 Best Seller for 1901.
It is important to note that the author is not the famed English politician and author, but an unrelated American writer.
The novel tells an epic tale of the American Civil War and remained in print until well into the 1970s.
The author wrote of the book that "The breach that threatened our country's existence is healed now. There is no side but Abraham Lincoln's side. And this side, with all reverence and patriotism, the author has tried to take. Yet Abraham Lincoln loved the South as well as the North."

The Crossing |
Winston Churchill (1871 - 1947) |
Publishers Weekly #1 Best Seller for 1904.
It is important to note that the author is not the famed English politician and author, but an unrelated American writer.
This book has been named "The Crossing" because I have tried to express in it the beginnings of that great movement across the mountains which swept resistless over the Continent until at last it saw the Pacific itself. The Crossing was the first instinctive reaching out of an infant nation which was one day to become a giant. No annals in the world's history are more wonderful than the story of the conquest of Kentucky and Tennessee by the pioneers...Winston Churchill
