Book Description
James "JE" Thomas hadn't thought much about his classes-or God-before his classroom at the University of Missouri in Columbia was stormed by armed gunmen. As they murdered anyone Christian, JE's guilt at denying his faith was assuaged by the comfort of Pearl-a classmate he'd noticed, but hadn't met. Realizing how much they had in common-including their attraction to each other-Pearl and JE developed a love like neither had ever felt. Along the way, Pearl and her family even reignited JE's love for the church they had both grown up in. As the twists and turns of life come at JE and Pearl, scandal and divisiveness force them out of the church they love. When someone threatens their daughter, the call of God takes them halfway around the world into an unknown life. Will they be able to return home? And-if they do-will they come home as a family? With almost-legendary family history to live up to, JE shoulders the weight of the world to do what's right-and is changed forever in the bargain.

These men and women were as diverse as the Ozark Mountain's rock-laden landscapes.

They were shrewd, strong-willed individuals who brought staunch beliefs and strong disciplines with them and settled in an untamed wilderness which became Cleburne County.

The objective of Carl J. Barger, the compiler of Cleburne County and Its People, is to preserve a history of the county of his birth for students, historians, and all of the citizens of Cleburne County. Carl J.

Book Description
This book is about Billy the Kid's trial for murder, and the events leading to that trial. The result of Billy's trial sealed his fate. And yet Billy's trial is the least written about, and until this book, the least known event of Billy's adult life. Prior biographies have provided extensive - and fascinating - details on Billy's life, but they supply only a few paragraphs on Billy's trial. Just the bare facts: time, place, names, result. Billy's trial the most important event in Billy's life. You may respond that his death is more important - it is in anyone's life! That is true, in an existential sense, but the events that lead to one's death at a particular place and time, the cause of one's death, override the importance of one's actual death. Those events are determinative. Without those events, one does not die then and there. If Billy had escaped death on July 14, 1881, and went on to live out more of his life, that escape and not his trial would probably be the most important event of Billy's life. The information presented here has been unknown until now. This book makes it possible to answer these previously unanswerable questions: Where was Billy captured? Where was Billy tried? What were the governing Territorial laws? What were the charges against Billy? Was there a trial transcript and what happened to it? What kind of defense did Billy present? Did Billy testify in his own defense? Did Billy have witnesses standing for him? Who testified against him for the prosecution? What was the jury like? What action by the trial judge virtually guaranteed his conviction? What legal grounds did he have to appeal his verdict? Was the trial fair? Supplementing the text are 132 photos, including many photos never published before.
