The Imaginary Voyage brings together Shimon Peres, Israel's Nobel Prize-winning statesman, and Theodor Herzl, the visionary founder of Zionism. Despite the decades that separate them, they are united with astounding literary and historical effect. Together they embark on a journey across the land they hold in common, comparing Herzl's century-old vision with today's reality. From the teeming streets of Tel Aviv, to the storied walls of Jerusalem; from Gueva Kibbutz to the Sea of Tiberius; from Masada to the Negev, their voyage illuminates all that has changed in this most remarkable land during the twentieth century, and all that has endured.

If the eighteenth century was the age of reason and enlightenment, the nineteenth century was undeniably the age of movement. This tumultuous period in French history bore witness to the rise and fall of countless political movements, from revolutions and “coups d’état”, to popular protests and the first workers’ strikes. It was an age of economic movements as France embraced the new world of finance and banking, and underwent its own industrial revolution. Social mobility increased as a dynamic commercial bourgeoisie began to challenge the system of aristocratic privilege that neither the 1789 Revolution nor the Napoleonic Empire had dismantled entirely. The era was one of artistic ferment, as Romanticism gave way to Realism, Naturalism, Impressionism, and Symbolism. Intellectual and philosophical movements, from Liberalism to Saint-Simonianism, sought both to reconcile the country with its past and construct the framework for a progressive, more harmonious future. Through seventeen thematic essays, Aller(s)-Retour(s) seeks to understand nineteenth-century France as a society in perpetual motion. Recognising the instability that is key to the very concept of movement, this volume explores how the intellectual shifts and cross-currents of the nineteenth century responded to, and impacted upon, each other. Finally, it asks why questions of motion and movement dominated this period, as every sphere of French life confronted its own extremes of progress and renewal, stagnancy and regression.

Imaginary journeys... we've all had them. BJ's passion...riding Dobbin, her rocking horse. During those times, she imagines Dobbin trotting off with her into those places where history is being made. She is young enough to ride a rocking horse, but smart enough to put herself in those moments. We can only imagine how she became so smart. We could think of her as being home schooled or tutored by history buffs. Whatever the circumstance, she feels it's important to experience being there during those times. In each chapter Dobbin gallops off with BJ in an imaginary journey into history. The chapters are about people and places that make America what it is today. Each chapter ends the same; with BJ's mother tapping her shoulder to tell her to get off her rocking horse and go to bed. It is at that moment she realizes it was just an imaginary journey. Have you ever imagined going back in time? How did they dress? What foods did they eat? What was their family life like? Who were their friends? To find answers, you will have to turn the page and journey along with BJ and Dobbin to explore these important times and places in history. Betty Riordan is a resident of Lee's Summit, Missouri, a suburb of Kansas City. She is a mother of three daughters, and a grandmother. Her passions are her family, planning Nana camp for her grandchildren each summer, reading, writing, entertaining, flower gardening, bird watching and traveling. She spent many years planning programs and events for senior adults. This is her first book, but she is planning to make it a series.
