Most Civil War books focus only on its male participants, but award-winning Southern historian Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook covers both genders. Having written extensively on the masculine side of the conflict, his positive, uplifting, inspiring, and educational book on Confederate females, unique in American literature, examines the feminine view of the War.
Entitled Women in Gray: A Tribute to the Ladies Who Supported the Southern Confederacy, this pictorial tour de force will evoke the gamut of human emotion, from laughter and tears to awe and outrage, as the reader pours over some 600 photos and illustrations of Victorian Confederate women, most from the South, but many from the North and West as well. Along with this visual feast - which aids in preserving our country's wonderful Confederate history - are included female-oriented reminiscences, stories, speeches, reports, poems, and obituaries regarding the Great War and the Southern Confederacy, covering the period from 1860 to 1918. Read in their own words the experiences, feelings, and views of the women who lived through both the War and Reconstruction, as well as those of their daughters and granddaughters, and discover the suppressed facts about Lincoln's War, the Confederacy, and the Union for yourself.
Women in Gray is perfect for Civil War museum stores and gift shops, historic homes, or any tourist hot spot connected to the War or American history. Makes a great personal gift as well. For the serious Civil War buff, historian, and scholar the book includes endnotes, a bibliography, and an index. This one-of-a-kind book is available in paperback and hardcover.

Описание:
Nearly everything you've been taught about Abraham Lincoln comes from pro-North authors and publishers. So if you want to know who he really was, you'll need to read about him from the South's perspective.
In Abraham Lincoln: The Southern View, award-winning author Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook provides an in-depth look at our sixteenth president as seen through the eyes of Dixie. Revealed is a man completely unknown to most Americans, both North and South; an unscrupulous demagogue and anti-Christian liberal who broke hundreds of laws; ignored and even subverted the Constitution; used money from the Yankee slave trade to fund his war; sanctioned the murder of both Southern blacks (who would not enlist in the Union army) and harmless Southern noncombatants (including women and children); had tens of thousands of innocent Northerners arrested, imprisoned, and sometimes tortured and executed without charge or trial; rigged the 1860 and 1864 elections; confiscated and destroyed private property; censored governmental debate over secession; and more. Throughout all of this, Southern historians estimate that some 3 million Americans, of all races, died in direct consequence of his actions.
While he publically declared that his goal was to "preserve the Union," he actually destroyed it. And when he later tried to alter the character of the War with his fake and illegal Emancipation Proclamation, he was formulating plans behind closed doors to deport all blacks out of America, "back to their native land," as he phrased it earlier on August 21, 1858. Lincoln's true agenda, as Colonel Seabrook shows, was to demolish the idea of states' rights in the South and install big government in the North. And, as the staunch supporter of American apartheid himself stated repeatedly, he was willing to do this with or without ending slavery.
With nearly 3,000 footnotes and a 1,000-book bibliography, this, the fourth revised Civil War Sesquicentennial edition of Abraham Lincoln: The Southern View, is an important, well documented work that will appeal to all those interested in authentic U.S. and Confederate history. You will never look at Lincoln or his War the same way again. The Foreword is by Clint Johnson, author of the bestseller The Politically Incorrect Guide to the South. Available in paperback and hardcover.

In this small but information packed book, Saddle, Sword, and Gun, Forrest scholar and relative Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook takes an inside look at the fascinating life story of Southern hero Confederate General Nathan Bedford Forrest. Written for teens and young adults (ages 13-18), Colonel Seabrook restores the legacy of one of American history's greatest figures - a legacy tarnished by 150 years of Yankee lies, slander, and anti-South propaganda.
Your son or daughter will ride along with Forrest, getting a firsthand look at his childhood in Tennessee, his teens in Mississippi, his marriage and children, his multimillion dollar businesses, the start of the American "Civil War," his enrollment in the Confederate army, and his rise to fame as a daring and successful Rebel officer.
They will thrill to the dramatic descriptions of General Forrest's exploits on and off the battlefield as he and his courageous cavalry (which included sixty-four black Confederate soldiers) fought their way across the South defending hearth, home, honor, and the constitutional right of self-government. In the process they will discover why the General's men loved and respected him, why the Southern people looked up to him as their "Spiritual Comforter," and why he freed his slaves years before Lincoln issued his fake and illegal Emancipation Proclamation.
After Lincoln's War they will follow Forrest as he rebuilt his life from scratch, and helped the South regain her political power and dignity during the Yankees' cruel and vindictive "Reconstruction" period. Finally they will learn how the great Confederate chieftain lived out his last years campaigning for black civil rights and working to heal the physical and emotional wounds left by the War for Southern Independence. Along the way they will be taught the truth about Forrest and Southern slavery and about Lincoln's War on the Constitution and the American people, a truth that has been hidden for a century and a half by uneducated enemies of the South.
Parents, you will enjoy reading this heavily illustrated compact little book as well, for it contains hundreds of important historical facts that neither you or your children were ever taught in school. Colonel Seabrook's sixth book (of nine) on Forrest, Saddle, Sword, and Gun is a significant work that will change hearts and minds regarding one of the most inspirational, gallant, colorful, and riveting figures in world history, a man who to this day is loved by millions of people of all races around the globe: famed Tennessean Nathan Bedford Forrest Available in paperback and hardcover.

Was Confederate Vice President Alexander H. Stephens really a "racist" Dixiecrat who believed that slavery was the "cornerstone" of the Confederacy, as pro-North writers assert? Was he actually guilty of "treason" against the U.S., an "anarchist" who should have been hanged for leading the secession of the Southern states? Of course not. And The Quotable Alexander H. Stephens: Selections from the Writings and Speeches of the Confederacy's First Vice President, by award-winning Southern historian Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook, proves it This well-researched work, a companion to Colonel Seabrook's The Alexander H. Stephens Reader, provides nearly 700 footnoted entries that reveal the authentic man, one completely opposite of the negative image of Stephens fabricated by enemies of the South. Known as one of America's most kindly and charitable individuals, he was a true friend of the black man, as well as a pro-Unionist who at first campaigned against Southern secession. Also a brilliant thinker, spell-binding orator, and prodigious author, he was, in fact, one of history's most extraordinary, interesting, honorable, and noble figures. Follow Stephens in his own words, as he takes us through the development of the U.S. after the American Revolution, and into the growing bitter sectionalism between the South and the North in the 1840s and 1850s. Get a you-are-there view of the entire "Civil War," from the disastrous election of big government Liberal Abraham Lincoln in November 1860, to the tragic fall of the Confederacy and Stephens' illegal imprisonment in the Spring of 1865. Follow the frail but feisty Conservative Georgia governor - who turned down offers to run for both U.S. president and C.S. president - from so-called "Reconstruction" and the rebuilding of the South (which he helped direct), through the postwar administrations of Andrew Johnson, Ulysses S. Grant, Rutherford B. Hayes, James A. Garfield, and Chester A. Arthur. Along the way, not only do we learn the true cause behind Lincoln's War, but Stephens also lays out the facts concerning Southern slavery and his "Cornerstone" speech, while forcefully defending the constitutional right of secession. Follow the lifelong bachelor-politician (who served in the U.S. government, in one capacity or another, from President Andrew Jackson to President Chester A. Arthur, a span of forty-seven years) as he discloses his everyday thoughts and personal opinions on everything from the weather and dogs to self-government and states' rights, in this profusely illustrated one-of-a-kind book that is already becoming a standard in Southern literature. With the publication of The Quotable Alexander H. Stephens, the anti-South movement's vicious slander against "little Aleck," as he was lovingly known to his relatives, friends and constituents, is now powerless. Thanks to Colonel Seabrook, the reputation, honor, and memory of Confederate Vice President Alexander Hamilton Stephens has finally been fully redeemed. Available in paperback and hardcover.

Nathan Bedford Forrest is best known for his role as a Confederate officer in the American War for Southern Independence. While most Forrest biographies discuss his military career in great detail, what they do not provide is the General's own perspective of the conflict. In his one-of-a-kind book, Give 'Em Hell Boys Forrest scholar, Forrest relation, and award-winning author Lochlainn Seabrook handily remedies this situation.
Neatly divided into five sections for each year of Lincoln's War, as the subtitle indicates, the book encompasses all of the General's military correspondence, from 1861 to 1865. In the 300 fascinating footnoted entries included, we find Forrest's reports, dispatches, orders, returns, letters, notes, communiques, and telegrams, as he himself wrote or dictated them, usually from the battlefield. His missives were sent out to a wide assortment of Civil War figures, from the president of the Confederacy (Jefferson Davis) and fellow Confederate officers to his Yankee enemies, most of the communications with the latter which ended with unsurprising results: immediate surrender Through Forrest's own words, we are able to track not only the progress of the War, but his rise from private to lieutenant general (one rank shy of full general)-the only man on either side to achieve such a feat.
Included along with a bibliography and an index are such extras as a historical time line of the highlights of Forrest's life, a list of all of Forrest's engagements, and a section on his recognition by the Confederate Congress. Like the author's other works on Forrest, Give 'Em Hell Boys (named after one of his most famous war cries) will help destroy the many anti-South myths surrounding the General, giving him back his rightful place as a lauded American icon. Learn about both Forrest the man and the Rebel officer from the great Confederate chieftain himself, in this captivating read that is sure to become a standard in Civil War literature.
