 | Paradise
Next to the immense forest of eastern Canada lies the tiny wild Isle of Demons. In 1542 the young Marguerite her maid, and her love are marooned on this island. At first, summer provides berries, greens, mushrooms, and rabbits and squirrels caught by snares. The exiles become increasingly resourceful, scavenging for food in the woods and on the shore, suing every part of a slain deer--its blood for pudding, its bladder for a water bag, and its hide for clothing. They even build a home of sorts out of saplings and mud. But though it is little spoken of, Marguerite dreads the harsh northern winter to come. How will they ever survive it? Based on the true-life heroine Marguerite de La Rocque, PARADISE is a gripping novel of adventure, courage, hardship, love, and survival.

 | Tulipomania by Mike Dash
This chronicle of the yearlong tulip frenzy that overwhelmed Holland in the early 17th century explores one of history's most astonishing events, when the value of tulip bulbs increased to astronomical heights and then, nearly as rapidly, fell, leading to a crash in which thousands of speculators faced financial ruin. Dash's book takes a penetrating look at Dutch society during that crazed year, when a single tulip bulb was equal in price to four oxen, an oak bed, or a small ship. It also provides a fascinating history of the tulip before and after its period of disastrous popularity. AUTHOR: Mike Dash
