In 1784, the recently widowed Thomas Jefferson set sail for Paris. As the new nation's minister to France he was expected to deal with the politicians in the court of King Louis XVI, but he was not prepared for the likes of Maria Cosway.

Their romance--lasting more than three years--is recorded in these private billets-doux between the shy American minister and his precocious bonne femme.Presented here for the first time in an accessible and attractive edition are over forty letters that reveal the innermost Jefferson.

Earthquake McGoon is the memoir of RCAF airman R214205, later Flying Officer J45098 William A. Cosway from his entry into the service as an 18-year-old on April 9, 1942, until his discharge in February of 1946, to begin a new life. He volunteered for aircrew, trained as a navigator, flew a B24 Liberator to India where, attached to 355 Squadron and subsequently 159 PFF (Pathfinder) Squadron of the Royal Air Force in Bengal, he and his crew successfully completed 38 missions of all kinds in 'The Forgotten War' in South East Asia, eight more than the mandatory 30.

In this powerful, epic biography, David McCullough unfolds the adventurous life-journey of John Adams, the brilliant, fiercely independent, often irascible, always honest Yankee patriot -- the colossus of independence, as Thomas Jefferson called him -- who spared nothing in his zeal for the American Revolution; who rose to become the second President of the United States and saved the country from blundering into an unnecessary war; who was learned beyond all but a few and regarded by some as out of his senses; and whose marriage to the wise and valiant Abigail Adams is one of the moving love stories in American history. Like his masterly, Pulitzer Prize-winning biography Truman, David McCullough's John Adams has the sweep and vitality of a great novel. It is both a riveting portrait of... Less

The Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection of more than 300 European portrait miniatures is catalogued in this book, published to accompany an exhibition at the museum. Dating from the early-16th century to about 1850, the works fall broadly into three categories - French, English and Continental. The collection includes work by Jean Clouet, who is credited with having originated the genre of portrait miniatures, and three examples of only 20 painted by Hans Holbein the Younger, the first great master of this art. Most of the other significant figures in the field - Hilliard, Hoskins, Cooper, Hall, Fueger, Zincke, Cosway and Isabey - are represented, as are many painters who worked primarily in larger formats, such as Fragonard, Vestier, the Van Blarenberghes, and Rosalba Carriera.
