A Terrible Intimacy by Melvin Patrick Ely – a look at six different court cases in antebellum Virginia where people from each side of the racial divide are involved. (Henry Holt and Co.)
For my classic pick of the month, I am going with Ballad of the Whiskey Robber by Julian Rubenstein – I don’t believe in trying to improve on perfection. So here is the official synopsis of this book: “A true story of bank heists, ice hockey, Transylvanian pelt smuggling, moonlighting detectives, and broken hearts.” All of that is in there and all of that is true. I laughed, I cried. This is a book I can hand to absolutely anyone and know they will like it. Get it yesterday.
