George Elliot Middlemarch (Unabridged audiobook with text)

GEORGE ELIOT - MIDDLEMARCH 
(complete, unabridged)      
George Eliot's masterpiece, Middlemarch, embodies through its various couples a nuptial kaleidoscope not matched since Chaucer's Wife of Bath. Conditions surrounding marriages in Victorian times for women were considerably different from what modern readers would surmise. Partly due to the deprivation of an equal opportunity to education, Victorian women were confronted with limited survival tactics.
Beautiful English.

Created Equal: A Social and Political History of the United States 2nd editionCreated Equal: A Social and Political History of the United States 2nd edition

With its inclusive view of American history, Created Equal, Brief Edition emphasizes social history???including the lives and labors of women, immigrants, working people, and minorities in all regions of the country???while delivering the basics of political and economic history. In this streamlined version of Created Equal, the authors have preserved the chronological framework and strong narrative thread, the rich tapestry of people and events, the engaging and illuminating stories, and the Interpreting History features of the original text, but have sharpened the presentation and prose condensing each chapter by 25 percent.
