History

Two Roads Home
Daniel Finkelstein
The Sisterhood
Liza Mundy


Two Roads Home is an epic and uplifting WWII family history of resistance that spans Europe, telling of two happy families uprooted by war, their incredible suffering under Hitler and Stalin, and the near-miraculous survival stories of the author’s mother and father.

The acclaimed author of Code Girls returns with a revelatory history of three generations at the CIA — the women who fought to become operatives, transformed spycraft, and tracked down Osama bin Laden.
