Did you know crime novelist Sara Paretsky (Dr. Paretsky) is also a historian? I had no idea until fellow writer Lori Rader-Day interviewed her for Chicago Review of Books. Paretsky combined an interest in history and social justice even then. Check out the interview. https://bit.ly/2dev0c6
And, you can order books from both Sara Paretsky and Lori Rader-Day through the Web Store. https://store.poisonedpen.com/
