00814 Che Guevara: A Revolutionary Life by Jon Lee Anderson
00254 Where Late the Sweet Birds Sang by Kate Wilhelm
00152 Alphabetical Africa by Walter Abish
00368 Nabokov in America: On the Road to Lolita by Robert Roper
00736 Ecstatic Nation: Confidence, Crisis, and Compromise, 1848-1877 by Brenda Wineapple
00576 Five Days at Memorial: Life and Death in a Storm-Ravaged Hospital by Sheri Fink
