This fall, the Press will be releasing numerous books with Notre Dame connections that range from biographies to poetry. These upcoming titles include:

• The Glory and The Burden by Robert Schmuhl, Walter H. Annenberg-Edmund P.

It’s the kind of book that every American should read in the run-up to the next presidential election.

  March 1917, The Red Wheel, Node III, Book 2, by Nobel prize-winner Alexsandr Solzhenitsyn, is set during March 13–15, 1917, the Russian Revolution’s turbulent second week. This volume is part of The Center for Ethics and Culture Solzhenitsyn Series and is translated by Marian Schwartz.
