Can someone heist the majority of the House of Representatives with no one noticing? That’s the electoral coup that turns America upside down in THE PEOPLE'S HOUSE… ...Until one man notices. Political reporter Jack Sharpe is logging time at the tail end of a disappointing career -- jaded about politics and stung by personal hard knocks. But after an odd election result in the Ohio Congressional district he covers, Sharpe stumbles across irregularities that spur him to dig deeper. The story takes him far beyond his corner of Ohio as he discovers an international plot—one that strikes at the heart of American democracy by taking advantage of weaknesses in today’s political architecture. His reporting leads to a showdown with the philandering Congressman and Presidential contender who knew about the plan but told nobody, and the eccentric but deadly Russian energy baron who masterminded it all. In order to save himself and the country, Sharpe must rekindle his old fire to navigate a treacherous journey through danger, betrayal, and atonement.

Libby Henry unabashedly tells her story in this lively memoir set in central Kentucky. She rides her pony rough-shod through the lives of Earl and Beal, her parents, singing The Little Orange Bird. All Earl wants is some "peace," hard to find with a daughter some fifty years his junior, with a croaky voice and coke bottle glasses perparing for a song and dance career, with a dash of fashion. Beal lives vicariously through Libby's short-lived modeling career, her romances, and connections, pleased when she approves, and tending to the unhinged wihen not so pleased. Earl is still looking for "peace," while weathering the car wrecks, the vacatons, and the unexpected in his home-life. And then there's those trips to Lincoln county where Libby's maternal grandfather is a big man in the community, a man of property who also owns the stockyard and is a deputy sheriff, though he hasn't qutie caught up to the times and modernized his house with running water. There's the little old lady who "shot me a dog once," Davy Crockett and Sam Houston make an appearance, and that "bad man" who got his head knocked into a wall by Earl. And darker times too, times of illness, loss, mortgage fraud and divorce. Libby shares all with an enduring sense of humor and a welcoming voice that draw you near and keep you turning pages.

As the first president to occupy the White House for an entire term, Thomas Jefferson shaped the president’s residence, literally and figuratively, more than any of its other occupants. Remarkably enough, however, though many books have immortalized Jefferson’s Monticello, none has been devoted to the vibrant look, feel, and energy of his still more famous and consequential home from 1801 to 1809. In Monticello on the Potomac, James B. Conroy, author of the award-winning Lincoln’s White House offers a vivid, highly readable account of how life was lived in Jefferson’s White House and the young nation’s rustic capital.
