Book Description
Lieutenant Jason Bennet lived through the Civil War, but wounded at the Battle of Five Forks, he didn't see its end. He wakes in a Washington D. C. hospital with no memory and is driven by the need to find home and family. Boarding the riverboat in Cincinnati, he saves old Cyrus Beauregard from murder. From their fiery first encounter in Cincinnati, a warrior's bond develops. In Memphis Jason finds the Union Army occupying his home, with no sign of family or connection to his past. Putting his disappointment aside he re-joins Cyrus on his riverboat. Jason gradually discovers in himself a heightened sense of perception which both helps and haunts, endearing him to Cyrus and his strange crew. Deception forms the line between Cyrus and his group of Texas ranchers on one side and the crooked provisional government on the other. With fists and guns Jason fights for the future of all who survive.

Book Description
One of the most hotly debated issues in the historical study of race relations is the question of how the Civil War and Reconstruction affected social relations in the South. Did the War leave class and race hierarchies intact? Or did it mark the profound disruption of a long-standing social order? Yankee Town, Southern City examines how the members of the southern community of Lynchburg, Virginia experienced four distinct but overlapping events--Secession, Civil War, Black Emancipation, and Reconstruction. By looking at life in the grog shop, at the military encampment, on the street corner, and on the shop floor, Steven Elliott Tripp illustrates the way in which ordinary people influenced the contours of race and class relations in their town.

Book Description
Yankee by Birth, Southern by Choice is the account of Northerner Lawrence Daniel Devoe's discovery of the Southern United States and his journey to become a full-fledged Southerner. Starting from home in Chicago when he was a teenager, Lawrence and his grandparents took a road trip to Louisiana so Lawrence could meet his grandfather's relatives. Lawrence returned to the South two more times-once when he was drafted as an Army medical officer and sent to Fort Benning, Georgia, and again, after he finished his formal training, when he accepted a position in Augusta, Georgia, at the Medical College of Georgia. Following the path of his gradual transition from Yankee to Southerner, the author shares his observations about discovering the many wonders of Southern living, adapting to endless summers, developing a taste for Southern cuisine, marrying a native Southerner, learning the language of the South, and becoming part of a Southern family. The steps along this personal journey provide the basis for the author's advice and recommendations to fellow Northerners who are considering a visit or a permanent move to the South.Chapters in Yankee by Birth, Southern by Choice: Part I: Becoming a Son of the SouthBeginnings: Grandpa Smith My First Trip to the SouthUncle Sam Sends Me to GeorgiaThe Road Leads Back to Georgia Marrying into a Southern Family-AgainThere Is Nothing Like a Colonial Dame!Homecoming and Fish Fries Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Spoke to MeFootball FeverSoutherners and Their GunsPart II: A Brief Guide to Living in the SouthSurviving Southern SummersLearning to Speak SouthernA Yankee's Guide to Southern FilmsSouthern CuisineWhat Southerners Like to DrinkSouthern MannersShould You, Too, Consider Becoming a Southerner

Book Description
Award-winning author and historian Lochlainn Seabrook has done it again. He's given traditional Southerners yet another book that not only rectifies many of the notoriously false Yankee myths floating around out there, but one that makes Southerners genuinely proud to be Southern! This brief work, provocatively entitled "Give This Book to a Yankee! A Southern Guide to the Civil War For Northerners," is a loosely based distillation of his popular blockbuster "Everything You Were Taught About the Civil War is Wrong, Ask a Southerner!" Pared down several hundred pages for quick reading, as the title suggests, "Give This Book to a Yankee!" makes an excellent gift for your Northern friends, or even for fellow Southerners who have been inculcated with pro-North nonsense, and who need reeducating as to Dixie's authentic history. The book's nineteen chapters cover the most salient aspects of what Mr. Seabrook likes to call "Lincoln's War," including such topics as the true cause behind the conflict, the legality of secession, race relations in the Old South and the Old North, myths about so-called "slavery," the real origins of the American abolition movement, Jeff Davis, Abe Lincoln, the Emancipation Proclamation, the treatment of blacks in the Confederate and Union armies, the KKK, Reconstruction, and much more. For scholars the book comes with over 200 endnotes and a bibliography. The Foreword is by Confederate Virginia Flagger Karen Cooper. Heavily researched and illustrated, this little book is an essential weapon anyone can use to defend Dixie and the Southern Cause, making it a must-have for traditional Southerners, Civil War buffs, and educators. At only $7.95 keep several copies with you to hand out. You never know when you're going to bump into an unenlightened Yank or reconstructed Southerner! Civil War scholar and unreconstructed Southern historian Lochlainn Seabrook, a descendant of numerous Confederate soldiers and a recipient of the prestigious Jefferson Davis Historical Gold Medal, is the sixth great-grandson of the Earl of Oxford and the author of over thirty popular books for all ages. A seventh-generation Kentuckian of Appalachian heritage who is known as the "American Robert Graves" after his celebrated English cousin, Seabrook has a forty-year background in the American Civil War, Confederate studies and biography, self-help, healing and health, spirituality, Jesus, the Bible, the Law of Attraction, theology, thealogy, anthropology, etymology, the paranormal, genealogy, and comparative religion and myth. A Southern Agrarian and a member of the Sons of Confederate Veterans and the National Grange, he lives with his wife and family in historic Middle Tennessee, the heart of the Confederacy. Seabrook's other titles include: "A Rebel Born: A Defense of Nathan Bedford Forrest"; "Honest Jeff and Dishonest Abe: A Southern Children's Guide to the Civil War"; "The Unquotable Abraham Lincoln: The President's Quote They Don't Want You to Know!"; "The Quotable Stonewall Jackson"; "The Alexander H. Stephens Reader"; "The Constitution of the Confederate States of America Explained"; "The Old Rebel: Robert E. Lee As He Was Seen By His Contemporaries"; "Jesus and the Law of Attraction"; and "The Bible and the Law of Attraction."

Book Description
William Taylor's Cavalier and Yankee was one of the most famous works of American history written in the 1960s. The book is an intellectual history of the South before the Civil War, the perception of it in the North, and the effect it had upon the nation in the years from 1800 to 1860. First published in 1961 and out of print for several years, Taylor's classic study remains essential to the study of the pre-Civil War South.
