Born the second son of a woman farmer, south of Salem, North Carolina, young Jonathan Henry Hamilton strikes out on his own in 1835, and becomes an overseer on a large slave Plantation. His actions and rapport with others, especially his gang of Bounders, as the slaves were called on the Bethania Plantation, made him very popular, particularly with the daughter of the plantations owner. With His bride, and four bounders, who he frees, Jonathan strikes out for the territory, and soon to be state of Arkansas, and an arsenal of adventure, including the helping of a group of Eastern Cherokee from Georgia, who had escaped the Trail of Tears and taken refuge in the Great Smoky Mountains after the discovery of the gold on their homelands had caused them to be chased out of Georgia by the greed of the whites and US President Andrew Jackson. Jons reward for this help was enough gold to purchase all the lands, manpower, materials and even little town on the Saint Francis river in Northeast Arkansas to build a rice empire. The struggles of Empire building finally start paying off and Jonathans family and Moses landing ark begins to prosper. But, there is trouble on the horizon!

Book Description
Atlanta Braves third baseman and National Hall of Famer Chipper Jones—one of the greatest switch-hitters in baseball history—shares his remarkable story, while capturing the magic nostalgia that sets baseball apart from every other sport. Before Chipper Jones became an eight-time All-Star who amassed Hall of Fame–worthy statistics during a nineteen-year career with the Atlanta Braves, he was just a country kid from small town Pierson, Florida. A kid who grew up playing baseball in the backyard with his dad dreaming that one day he’d be a major league ballplayer. With his trademark candor and astonishing recall, Chipper Jones tells the story of his rise to the MLB ranks and what it took to stay with one organization his entire career in an era of booming free agency. His journey begins with learning the art of switch-hitting and takes off after the Braves make him the number one overall pick in the 1990 draft, setting him on course to become the linchpin of their lineup at the height of their fourteen-straight division-title run. Ballplayer takes readers into the clubhouse of the Braves’ extraordinary dynasty, from the climax of the World Series championship in 1995 to the last-gasp division win by the 2005 “Baby Braves”; all the while sharing pitch-by-pitch dissections of clashes at the plate with some of the all-time great starters, such as Clemens and Johnson, as well as closers such as Wagner and Papelbon. He delves into his relationships with Bobby Cox and his famous Braves brothers—Maddux, Glavine, and Smoltz, among them—and opponents from Cal Ripken Jr. to Barry Bonds. The National League MVP also opens up about his overnight rise to superstardom and the personal pitfalls that came with fame; his spirited rivalry with the New York Mets; his reflections on baseball in the modern era—outrageous money, steroids, and all—and his special last season in 2012. Ballplayer immerses us in the best of baseball, as if we’re sitting next to Chipper in the dugout on an endless spring day.

Book Description
From celebrated New York Times bestselling author and winner of the Pulitzer Prize, Rick Bragg, comes a poignant and wryly funny collection of essays on life in the south. Keenly observed and written with his insightful and deadpan sense of humor, he explores enduring Southern truths about home, place, spirit, table, and the regions' varied geographies, including his native Alabama, Cajun country, and the Gulf Coast. Everything is explored, from regional obsessions from college football and fishing, to mayonnaise and spoonbread, to the simple beauty of a fish on the hook. Collected from over a decade of his writing, with many never-before-published essays written specifically for this edition, My Southern Journey is an entertaining and engaging read, especially for Southerners (or feel Southern at heart) and anyone who appreciates great writing.

Book Description
Homeless and alone, coerced by strange voices and haunted by a history of family violence, a disturbed youth drifts between town and the Australian outback. Along the way, he grows increasingly isolated and distrustful in a society that lacks the means and seemingly the will to help him. The story of his descent into madness and violence provides a compelling picture of life on the margins of modern society. Told with lyrical simplicity, Fresh Fields is a dark coming-of-age novel, offering readers an intimate account of the forces at work in the evolution of a loner. Its insights into parental neglect, homelessness, mental illness and the trials of adolescence are sharpened to a fine point. But in this exceptional novel there is also real humanity, compassion, and humor in the face of adversity. Winner of the 2005 Fellowship of Australian Writers National Literary Award and the FAW Christina Stead Award for Fiction. Shortlisted for the 2005 NSW Premier’s Literary Award, and named one of the best books of the year by The Times Literary Supplement.

Book Description
The name of John Muir has come to stand for the protection of wild land and wilderness in both America and Britain. Born in Dunbar in the east of Scotland in 1838, Muir is famed as the father of American conservation, and as the first person to promote the idea of National Parks. Combining acute observation with a sense of inner discovery, Muir's writings of his travels through some of the greatest landscapes on Earth, including the Carolinas, Florida, Alaska and those lands which were to become the great National Parks of Yosemite and the Sierra Valley, raise an awareness of nature to a spiritual dimension. These journals provide a unique marriage of scientific survey of natural history with lyrical and often amusing anecdotes, retaining a freshness, intensity and brutal honesty which will amaze the modern reader. This collection, including the never-before-published "Stickeen", presents the finest of Muir's writings, and imparts a rounded portrait of a man whose generosity, passion, discipline and vision are an inspiration to this day.
