Sinn Fein: A Hundred Turbulent Years by Brian Feeney, ISBN 0299186709
Sinn Fein ("ourselves alone") is one of the most controversial political movements in Ireland. Here, for the first time, is the complete story of the rise and fall--and rise again--of a party that repeatedly has reshaped its identity over the course of a hundred years, moving from dual monarchy to dual strategy: the gun and the ballot box. From Arthur Griffith to Gerry Adams, this is a roll-call of major personalities from Irish and British history and politics, including Eamon de Valera, Countess Constance Markievicz, David Lloyd George, Michael Collins, Ruairi O Bradaigh, Cathal Goulding, Tomas MacGiolla, Margaret Thatcher, and Martin McGuinness. Now at the beginning of the twenty-first century, Sinn Fein seems poised to play a pivotal role in the Irish political arena, north and south, well into the future. Its place in history is still being written.

Crafting a Modern World: The Architecture and Design of Antonin and Nomi Raymond
There appears to be no end in sight to the ongoing love affair with mid-century modern design. Still, it's curious that we keep hearing the same names again and again while so much inspiring work waits for its "moment" to be discovered. Antonin and Nomi Raymond are now ready for their close-up. Crafting a Modern World is the first comprehensive book in English on the duo that creatively transformed design from 1917 to 1966. Best known for a series of finely detailed structures built in Japan during the 1930s, the Raymonds had prolific careers that embraced designs from factories, office buildings, churches, and schools to furniture, fabrics, and graphic design.
