If you are interested in 19th century fiction, and cannot find a story of a woman who is lowly born, and not rich or famous, then this tale may interest you.

Rosie Randall has to work if she is to avoid the workhouse when her husband dies and she is left with a baby to bring up. She works as a seamstress, sewing garments, and household drapery for those of the middle classes who do not have as many servants as the wealthy. This tale is of her life, from 1817, when she is born to her death 100years later, during the 1st world war An ordinary woman, a woman of no consequence This is 19th century fiction unlike most others. The story is a woman born during the Regency, and tells the tale of her life through from her childhood, to employment as a Dairymaid age ten, and her disastrous marriage. When her husband dies, she is left with a baby to support and no home, until her stepmother offers her a job as a seamstress, and a home. She does find love, but he is killed at Crimea. It appears she is to have a very lonely old age as members of her family die. Will she die without finding happiness?

Consequence
Author: Eric Fair
Publisher: Macmillan
ISBN: 1627795138
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
A man questions everything--his faith, his morality, his country--as he recounts his experience as an interrogator in Iraq; an unprecedented memoir and "an act of incredible bravery" (Phil Klay) "Remarkable... Both an agonized confession and a chilling expose of one of the darkest interludes of the War on Terror. Only this kind of courage and honesty can bring America back to the democratic values that we are so rightfully proud of." --Sebastian Junger Consequence is the story of Eric Fair, a kid who grew up in the shadows of crumbling Bethlehem Steel plants nurturing a strong faith and a belief that he was called to serve his country. It is a story of a man who chases his own demons from Egypt, where he served as an Army translator, to a detention center in Iraq, to seminary at Princeton, and eventually, to a heart transplant ward at the University of Pennsylvania. In 2004, after several months as an interrogator with a private contractor in Iraq, Eric Fair's nightmares take new forms: first, there had been the shrinking dreams; now the liquid dreams begin. By the time he leaves Iraq after that first deployment (he will return), Fair will have participated in or witnessed a variety of aggressive interrogation techniques including sleep deprivation, stress positions, diet manipulation, exposure, and isolation. Years later, his health and marriage crumbling, haunted by the role he played in what we now know as "enhanced interrogation," it is Fair's desire to speak out that becomes a key to his survival. Spare and haunting, Eric Fair's memoir is both a brave, unrelenting confession and a book that questions the very depths of who he, and we as a country, have become.

The list of things I hate is short. Not even my soon-to-be ex-husband is on that list. Nope. I save only the worst of the worst, the crème de la crème, the absolute I cannot even for this list . . .1. Black coffee2. Rude people3. Nathaniel BradleyWhich is why when my father informs me that he's making Nathaniel Bradley his new business partner, and in turn, my boss, I flip out. 1. He's an annoying know-it-all. 2. He calls me a spoiled princess every chance he gets. 3. He disapproves of everything I do.I go into this knowing I'll hate every second in his presence. Except the longer he's around, the more I find myself staring at his lips and remembering the one time they were on mine. I randomly find myself looking at his hands and wondering how they'd feel on my skin. I try to snap out of it, but I guess I'm not as smart as I thought I was. No matter how many times I remind myself of the times I've practically thrown myself at him and he's pushed me away, I keep falling little by little.I'd always heard that it was a bad idea to mix business with pleasure and if that's the case, this thing with Nathaniel has demise written all over it.
