Becoming RBG

Ruth Bader Ginsburg's journey to justice
2019
". . . a biographical graphic novel about celebrated Supreme Court justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Supreme Court justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is a modern feminist icon--a leader in the fight for equal treatment of girls and women in society and the workplace. She blazed trails to the peaks of the male-centric worlds of education and law, where women had rarely risen before.

a true story of the Civil War
2017
"Amid the fearsome battles of the Civil War, both Union and Confederate soldiers were urged onward by song ... And there was one song that reminded them all of what they hoped to return to after the war. Defeated in the battle of Fredericksburg, Virginia, the Union soldiers retreated across the river. There, a new battle emerged as both armies volleyed competing songs back and forth. With the Christmas season upon them, however, Federals and Confederates longed for the same thing. As the notes of 'Home, Sweet Home' rose up from both sides, they found common ground for one night"--Provided by publisher.
