On July 17, 1944, a massive explosion rocked the segregated Navy base at Port Chicago, California, killing more than 300 sailors who were at the docks, critically injuring off-duty men in their bunks, and shattering windows up to a mile away. On August 9th, 244 men refused to go back to work until unsafe and unfair conditions at the docks were addressed. When the dust settled, fifty were charged with mutiny, facing decades in jail and even execution. This is a fascinating story of the prejudice that faced black men and women in America's armed forces during World War II, and a nuanced look at those who gave their lives in service of a country where they lacked the most basic rights.]]></description><link>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C1980731</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C1980731</guid><category><![CDATA[AB]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sheinkin, Steve]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2014 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1980731133</comments><format>AB</format><subtitle>Disaster, Mutiny, and the Fight for Civil Rights</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780804167451/MC.GIF&amp;client=skopl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Port Chicago 50]]></title><description><![CDATA[Presents an account of the 1944 civil rights protest involving hundreds of African-American Navy servicemen who were unjustly charged with mutiny for refusing to work in unsafe conditions after the deadly Port Chicago explosion.]]></description><link>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C1881172</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C1881172</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sheinkin, Steve]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2014 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1881172133</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Disaster, Mutiny, and the Fight for Civil Rights</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781596437968/MC.GIF&amp;client=skopl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Bomb]]></title><description><![CDATA[In December of 1938, a chemist in a German laboratory made a shocking discovery: When placed next to radioactive material, a Uranium atom split in two.

Soon after Boyd is hauled off to prison, members of his counterfeiting ring gather in the back room of a smoky Chicago saloon to discuss how to spring their ringleader. Their plan: grab Lincoln's body from its Springfield tomb, stash it in the sand dunes near Lake Michigan, and demand, as a ransom, the release of Ben Boyd —and $200,000 in cash. From here, the action alternates between the conspirators, the Secret Service agents on their trail, and the undercover agent moving back and forth between the two groups. Along the way readers get glimpses into the inner workings of counterfeiting, grave robbing, detective work, and the early days of the Secret Service. The plot moves toward a wild climax as robbers and lawmen converge at Lincoln's tomb on election night: November 7, 1876.]]></description><link>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C2089978</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C2089978</guid><category><![CDATA[AB]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sheinkin, Steve]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 2013 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2089978133</comments><format>AB</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781338243437/MC.GIF&amp;client=skopl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Lincoln's Grave Robbers]]></title><description><![CDATA[Describes how a counterfeiting ring plotted to ransom Lincoln's body to secure the release of their imprisoned ringleader, and how a fledging Secret Service and an undercover agent conducted a daring election-night sting operation.]]></description><link>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C1795895</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C1795895</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sheinkin, Steve]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2012 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1795895133</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780545405720/MC.GIF&amp;client=skopl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Adventures of Rabbi Harvey]]></title><link>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C1515739</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C1515739</guid><category><![CDATA[GRAPHIC_NOVEL]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sheinkin, Steve]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2006 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1515739133</comments><format>GRAPHIC_NOVEL</format><subtitle>A Graphic Novel of Jewish Wisdom and Wit in the Wild West</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781580233101/MC.GIF&amp;client=skopl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Neil Armstrong and Nat Love, Space Cowboys]]></title><description><![CDATA[When a spaceship carrying Neil Armstrong accidentally time travels to 1869 Texas, cowboy Nat Love decides to trade in his horse for a trip to the Moon, and stepsiblings Abby and Doc must untwist history and get everyone back to their own time.]]></description><link>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C2924995</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C2924995</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sheinkin, Steve]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 2019 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2924995133</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781250148971/MC.GIF&amp;client=skopl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Born to Fly]]></title><description><![CDATA["National Book Award finalist Steve Sheinkin tells the story of the 1929 Women's Air Derby, the first official all-female air race in the U.S."-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C2942702</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C2942702</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sheinkin, Steve]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 2019 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2942702133</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>The First Women&apos;s Air Race Across America</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781626721302/MC.GIF&amp;client=skopl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Abigail Adams, Pirate of the Caribbean]]></title><description><![CDATA[When Abigail Adams decides there's more to life than doing chores in the White House, she joins a crew of Caribbean pirates!
