 | The Queen of Spades & Other Stories by Aleksandr Sergeevich Pushkin, Rosemary Edmonds, T. Keane
Surrounded by spies, his writing personally censored by the Tsar, Pushkin (1799-1837) had every incentive both to write historical stories, such as The Captains Daughter and the uncompleted Negro of Peter the Great, and to criticize Russian society. This selection from his work also includes Dubrovsky, a Byronic tale of a dispossessed young officer, and The Queen of Spades. This famous story of the card tables, whose self-seeking hero Dostoyevsky called a colossal figure, was made into an opera by Tchaikovsky. AUTHOR: Aleksandr Sergeevich Pushkin, Rosemary Edmonds, T. Keane

 | Undamning of America by Elizabeth Grossman
Dams and diversions along America's rivers have transformed the country and in doing so created environmental problems whose resolution will, in many ways, determine how we live in the next century. There are over 75,000 dams in the country and almost no major river in the country remains undammed. But now, for the first time in our nation's history, the pace of dam removal has overtaken the pace of construction as communities across the country commit themselves to river restoration, including the removal of harmful dams. Questioning the value of dams requires a serious readjustment in the country's notion of progress, a prospect threatening to some and daunting to all. WATERSHED examines the implications of dam removal to America's rivers and their communities by exploring the stories of a number of places where dam removal and river restoration are now underway. This a story of people and place, and of a vital turning point in the nation's relationship to its rivers. AUTHOR: Elizabeth Grossman
