In 1975, Alison Glass, age thirteen, moves to Connecticut with her bohemian parents and her horse, Jazz. Shy, observant, and in a back brace for scoliosis, Alison finds strength in an unlikely friendship with Kate Hamilton, the charismatic but troubled daughter of an egomaniacal New Age guru and his substance-loving wife. Seeking refuge from the chaos in their lives, the girls escape into the world of their horses. Rich in humor and heartbreak, \u003ci\u003eHistory Lesson for Girls\u003c\/i\u003e is an elegy to a friendship that meant everything.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003eAurelie Sheehan is an assistant professor of fiction at the University of Arizona and the author of the critically acclaimed short story collection \u003cb\u003eJack Kerouac Is Pregnant\u003c\/b\u003e.
