| Meriwether Lewis (1774 - 1809) |

| The Lady With the Dog & Other Stories |
| Anton Chekhov (1860 - 1904) |
The Lady With the Dog is one of Chekhov's most famous stories. What seems like a brief affair between two married people becomes a threat to their family lives as they find they cannot forget each other. Chekhov is now the most popular playwright in the English-speaking world after Shakespeare, but many think that his short stories are his greatest achievement. Chekhov's stories are ranked No.9 on Time magazine's list of the "10 Greatest Books of all time", January 2007. |

| The Leavenworth Case |
| Anna Katherine Green (1846 - 1935) |
1878 Best Seller.
Green's first and best-known novel is a nicely complicated murder mystery with a classic drawing room resolution.
It was apparently used by Yale Law School to demonstrate the weakness of circumstantial evidence.
