Nell Bray would do almost anything for the Vote, but planting a bomb in a house belonging to David Lloyd George, Chancellor of the Exchequer, is where she draws the line. Her friends have other ideas and, in trying to head them off, Nell becomes a leading suspect. But instead of landing up in a prison cell again, she receives an urgent invitation to breakfast at 11 Downing Street with Lloyd George himself. Lloyd George has a deal to offer. In return for Nell's help in recovering politically embarrassing letters, he will see that charges are dropped against everybody involved and maybe throw in the Vote as well. There are just a few little annoyances to deal with, including barefoot dancer and suspect spy Oriana Paphos. She's determined to dance Salome and doesn't care whose head rolls in the process. Then there's Oriana's manager, Leon Sylvan, whose appetites include raw steak, other people's motor cars, and money. The last person Lloyd George sent to tangle with these two ended up dead in a bath with his wrists cut. But Nell is in no position to refuse. To make matters worse, there's another spy, near the heart of the suffragette movement, and her help is urgently needed before true disaster strikes.

paperback. Condition: Near Fine. PAPERBACK, cover price $13.00, attractive copy, near fine. DINER, STEVEN J. A very different age: Americans of the progressive era. New York: Hill and Wang, a division of Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 1998, viii, 320pp., . Cover design by Timothy Hsu. Steven J. Diner, drawing on the rich scholarship of recent social history, focuses on how Americans of diverse backgrounds and at all economic levels responded to the Progressive Era. Industrial workers and farmers, recent immigrants and African Americans, white-collar workers and small entrepreneurs had to reinvent the ways they managed their work, family, community, and leisure as the forces of change swept away familiar modes of economic life, rearranged hierarchies of social status, and redefined the relationship of citizens to their government. This is a striking new interpretation of a crucial epoch in our nation's history. - CONTENTS: Prologue : crisis in the 1890s -- 1. Owners, managers, and corporate capitalism -- 2. Industrial workers' struggle for control -- 3. Immigrants in industrial America -- 4. Rural Americans and industrial capitalism -- 5. African-Americans' quest for freedom -- 6. White-collar workers in corporate America -- 7. The competition for control of the professions -- 8. The progressive discourse in American politics -- 9.
