2 .Sophia : princess, suffragette, revolutionary / Anita Anand.
Anand, Anita, author
Summary: In 1876 Sophia Duleep Singh was born into royalty. Her father, Maharajah Duleep Singh, was heir to the Kingdom of the Sikhs, a realm that stretched from the lush Kashmir Valley to the craggy foothills of the Khyber Pass and included the mighty cities of Lahore and Peshawar. It was a territory irresistible to the British, who plundered everything, including the fabled Koh-I-Noor diamond. Exiled to England, the dispossessed Maharajah transformed his estate at Elveden in Suffolk into a Moghul palace, its grounds stocked with leopards, monkeys and exotic birds. Sophia, god-daughter of Queen Victoria, was raised a genteel aristocratic Englishwoman: presented at court, afforded grace-and-favour lodgings at Hampton Court Palace and photographed wearing the latest fashions for the society pages. But when, in secret defiance of the British government, she travelled to India, she returned a revolutionary. Sophia transcended her heritage to devote herself to battling injustice and inequality,a far cry from the life to which she was born. Her causes were the struggle for Indian independence, the fate of the Lascars, the welfare of Indian soldiers in the First World War - and, above all, the fight for female suffrage. She was bold and fearless, attacking politicians, putting herself in the front line and swapping her silks for a nurse's uniform to tend wounded soldiers evacuated from the battlefields.

1 .Tennis' greatest stars / Mike Ryan.
Ryan, Mike, 1974- author
Summary: The exciting history of the modern game with profiles of its greatest players. From the heat of the Australian Open to the red clay of the French Open, to the majesty of Wimbledon All England Club to the humidity at the US Open, tennis has been a global sport for decades. Starting with the tennis pioneers of the 20th century right up to today, star players have influenced cultural movements, ushered in the casual sporting style and sex appeal and the fight for equal rights. Tennis was the first sport to have openly gay athletes and is the only major sport where women and men take home equal earnings. Tennis has been a leader in race relations starting in the 1960s and 1970s. Tennis' Greatest Stars profiles the 50 greatest and most influential players of the game and presents a historical narrative of athletic prowess, popular culture and social responsibility. Tennis' Greatest Stars features 50 player profiles in the following categories: PIONEERS AND TRAILBLAZERS: The players who set the stage for modern tennis, including Don Budge, who won the Grand Slam before becoming a professional; Rod Laver, one of the first to adopt the topspin; and Althea Gibson, the first African-American to win a major tennis championship. THE GOLDEN AGE: The rise of tennis players as celebrities, including Billie Jean King, who defeated Bobby Riggs in the 'Battle of the Sexes'; tantrum-throwing John McEnroe; and equal rights advocate Arthur Ashe. THE 21st CENTURY: Tennis has reached new heights in skill and speed as well as entered popular culture. Champions include the powerhouse Williams sisters, Venus and Serena; Roger Federer; Rafael Nadal; and Novak Djokovic. Tennis' Greatest Stars is packed with action photographs that celebrate the game and thoughtful essays, which cover such topics as the birth of modern tennis, the major tournaments, international play, the various court surfaces and new technologies. This is a superb book for the fan and a compelling history of a great game.

2 .The short, strange life of Herschel Grynszpan : a boy avenger, a Nazi diplomat, and a murder in Paris / Jonathan Kirsch.
Kirsch, Jonathan, 1949- author
Summary: On the morning of November 7, 1938, a seventeen-year-old Jewish refugee, Herschel Grynszpan, walked into the German embassy in Paris and in an act of desperation assassinated Ernst vom Rath, a low-level Nazi diplomat. He did it, he said, out "of love for my parents and for my people." Two days later, vom Rath lay dead, and the Third Reich exploited his murder to inaugurate its long-planned campaign of terror against Germany's Jewish citizens, in the mass pogrom that became known as Kristallnacht. In a bizarre concatenation of events that would rapidly involve Ribbentrop, Goebbels, and Hitler himself, Grynszpan would become the centerpiece of a Nazi propaganda campaign that would later describe his actions as 'the first shot of the Jewish War'. Best-selling author Jonathan Kirsch brings to light this wrenching story, reexamining the historical details and moral dimensions of one of the most enigmatic cases of World War II. Was Grynszpan a crazed lone gunman, or was he an agent of the Gestapo, recruited to provide a convenient pretext for a major escalation of Nazi aggression? Was he motivated by a desire to strike a blow for the Jewish people as an early partisan fighter, or did his act of violence speak to an intimate connection between the assassin and his target, as Grynszpan later claimed?.
