PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Bruce F. Pauley is a professor emeritus of history at the University of Central Florida. Among his books are Pioneering History on Two Continents: An Autobiography (Potomac, 2014); From Prejudice to Persecution: A History of Austrian Anti-Semitism; and Hitler, Stalin, and Mussolini: Totalitarianism in the Twentieth Century.
Portrait of a City offers abundant surprises for readers who may think of Lincoln only as the state capital and home of Husker football. Mining wide-ranging sources, Bruce Pauley combines scholarly rigor with lively narrative to illuminate a city undergoing dramatic changes--and confronting challenges still present today--in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. This book deserves the attention and appreciation of all Nebraskans. --Mark R. Scherer, coauthor of Echo of Its Time: The History of the Federal District Court of Nebraska, 1867-1933 Do you ever feel that the world is changing so quickly that it's hard to keep up? People living a century ago often felt the same way. Historian Bruce Pauley has created a vivid portrait of daily life in Lincoln, Nebraska, during a period of rapid social and technological transformation. --David L. Bristow, editor of Nebraska History magazine
