<p>The Colony of Georgia was founded in 1732 by General James Oglethorpe as a haven where the poorer citizens of Britain could find refuge and start their lives over. Oglethorpe landed at Yamacraw Bluff, home to the Yamacraw Indians, and their chief, Tomochichi, one of the great revolutionary figures of the native Americans. Tomochichi himself had been exiled from his own Creek tribe, as a result of controversy on how to relate to those arriving from the New World, so he started his own tribe, the Yamacraws. In 1733, the ship William and Sarah arrived in the new colony, carrying Benjamin and Perla Sheftall, founding members of Congregation Mickve Israel. The Sheftalls’ son, Mordecai, later became the highest ranking Jewish officer in Continental Army during the Revolutionary War. The Rebel of Savannah is the fictional retelling, based on historical facts, of the growth of the colonial American south from 1732 to 1791, the intricate relations between Christians, Jews, and Native Americans, the struggle for American independence, and the unifying power of freedom.</p>

The Silent Sister: The Diary of Margot Frank

<p>Anne Frank: the symbol of the Holocaust. Yet six million voices reverberate in utter silence. Margot Frank, unbeknownst to many, kept a diary in hiding too. The Silent Sister is Margot's view point and her personal journey. Margot lets us into her world, her take on the War, the Annexe, Peter and her secret love, Mordechai, and more. Margot's experiences are juxtaposed with Anne's in an original and ultimately triumphant new voice- a voice that has been waiting silently to emerge from the ashes of the Shoah. Margot Frank can now join her lovely sister in the collective testimony of the inexorable human spirit forced to submit to the horrors of the Holocaust, and despite it all, to somehow love, to somehow remain humane and free.</p>
