    "When men and women begin to feel that elections and legislatures do not matter very much, ...., the reformer might as well put to himself a few searching doubts.." --Walter Lippmann, from the IntroductionA Preface to Politics (1913) was the first book published by Walter Lippmann, one of the most influential journalists of the 20th century. This book of essays, written by 23-year-old Lippmann, is about the fundamental importance and purpose of politics. Although written more than a hundred years ago, many of Lippmann's observations are surprisingly valid for today's politics, such as that successful politicians understand and champion the concerns of the regular voter. Politics is more about emotions than logical reasoning. Government needs statesmen, rather than mechanical "routineers," which often rise to the political top. Due to Lippmann's early interest in socialism, this book is mildly socialistic. However, Lippmann was also critical of socialism and later moved completely away from this ideology. A Preface to Politics is a timeless classic and must-read for journalists, politicians, and all who are interested in American history and its lessons for today.

    "But she might hold him. That was all that mattered now. To hold him. To hold him. Not to let him go. Make him stay."-Ernest Hemingway, The Torrents of Spring (1926)The Torrents of Spring (1926) by Ernest Hemingway is an amusing parody that pokes fun at the writers of the time, namely Hemingway's friend, Sherwood Anderson and his novel, Dark Laughter (1925). The plot centers on the perfect woman and the attempt by the two main characters, Yogi Johnson and Scripps O'Neill to find her. This first long work of Hemingway was received with mixed reviews by his critics and compatriots; F. Scott Fitzgerald dubbed it a masterpiece. This novella is a rare glimpse into the humorous side of Hemingway and a must-read for fans of the author and parodies.

    "Some girls with metal knuckles were furiously insulting two punching bags on each of which was painted the leering, winking face of a 'masher.'" -F. Scott Fitzgerald, Dice, Brassknuckles & Guitar (1923)Dice, Brassknuckles & Guitar (1923) is a short story that was originally published in Hearst's International and resonates with some of the same themes as The Great Gatsby (1925) published shortly after. Featuring young commoner James Powell, "Jazz Master," the plot focuses on his brush with debutantes when he opens an academy focusing on defending oneself with brassknuckles, playing guitar, and winning at dice. The themes of social class, racial tension, and Southern versus Northern manners combine with the partying of the Jazz Age. This classic story is a must-read for fans of Fitzgerald and fiction of the early twentieth century.
