Book Description
Author Barrie Clark tells how he explored every possible source of information that might lead him to his daughter, who was given up for adoption. He also tells how, unknown to him, his daughter was looking for him at the same time he was looking for her. This is more than a fascinating detective story: it is also a poignant, heartwarming tale of two human beings and their hopes and fears as they persevere in their searches. Clark emerges as a kind, engaging man haunted by memories of his youth and driven by an intense longing to meet the child he had fathered so long ago; Catherine Anne herself as a sensitive young woman who, even as a girl, was deeply troubled by not knowing her natural parents. My Search for Catherine Anne is a touching story of separation, longing and reunion that reminds us how resilient the bonds of family can be.

Book Description
It is a truth universally acknowledged that Lady Catherine will never find a husband for Anne... When a fortuitous accident draws Anne away from Rosings and her overbearing mother's direct influence, she is able to think and act for herself for the first time ever. In the society of her cousins Darcy and Georgiana, and, of course, the lively Mrs. Darcy, Anne reveals a talent for writing and a zest for life. Meanwhile, Lady Catherine is determined to choose a husband for Anne. But now that Anne has found her courage, she may not be so easy to rule. Anne de Bourgh is a sympathetic character whose obedience and meekness were expected of women in her day. As she frees herself from these expectations, Anne discovers strength, independence, and even true love in a wonderfully satisfying coming-of-age story.

Book Description
Indigo is the rich, electrifying history of a precious dye: its relationship to the trans-Atlantic slave trade, its profound influence on fashion, and its spiritual significance - all very much alive today. But it is also the story of a personal quest: Catherine McKinley's ancestors include a clan of Scots who wore indigo tartan, several generations of Jewish 'rag traders' and Massachusetts textile factory owners, and African slaves who were traded along the same Saharan routes as indigo. Her journey takes her to nine West African countries and is resplendent with powerful lessons of heritage and history which shape the way she understands her world at home.
