Yankees claimed they won the Battle of Franklin; the Confederates believed they were the victors. Each side displayed courage (and in some cases cowardice) amid appalling slaughter, while employing outstanding tactical maneuvers and committing elementary strategical errors. These facts raise important questions.
Why, for example, did Union Gen. Wagner disobey orders at a crucial point in the battle, and why did Confederate Gen. Hood place his most brilliant fighter, Nathan Bedford Forrest, on the far right where he knew he would have almost no impact? Why did Union Gen. Schofield callously leave his dead and wounded on the battlefield the following day, and why, strangely, did Gen. Hood attempt to renew the battle on the morning of December 1? Why did Federal soldiers wantonly shoot down and kill Confederate Gen. John Adams when they could have easily captured him instead, and why at Franklin was the casualty rate for Confederate officers and infantrymen the highest of any known modern battle? These and a thousand other questions have long perplexed those with a sincere interest in both this particular battle and American Civil War history.
What then is the full and true story of the sanguinary conflict that took place in Middle Tennessee on November 30, 1864, the day after the mysterious Battle of Spring Hill and two weeks before the one-sided Battle of Nashville? What really happened during this violent engagement on the Plain of Franklin, rightly called by soldiers the "Valley of Death," where the earth was so "red with blood" that it poured over the fields in "rivulets," where in some places the bodies lay three layers deep, and where one could walk across the entire battlefield upon corpses without ever touching the ground?
Award-winning author and historian Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook addresses these questions in his captivating book The Battle of Franklin: Recollections of Confederate and Union Soldiers, a chronicle of nearly 30 eyewitness accounts by military men who were on the battlefield that brisk Autumn day. Col. Seabrook also furnishes narratives by civilians, clergy, women, and even children who lived through the conflict, providing additional context to a battle which, like Nashville, neither side had intended to fight.
The author-editor includes nearly 200 rare illustrations and photos to accompany the footnoted text, along with an introduction, battle statistics, 19th-Century maps, appendices, and a bibliography. The Battle of Franklin is part of Col. Seabrook's trilogy, "Hood's Tennessee Campaign" series, which includes his companion books The Battle of Spring Hill and The Battle of Nashville. All are available in paperback and hardcover. (Note: Sea Raven Press books are never out of stock.)

Why is the Left targeting Confederate monuments for removal and destruction? Ignorance, social spite, and political expediency But the Liberal's sinister efforts to eradicate American history do more than just offend the living. They are an insult to the honor and memory of one of the most courageous and patriotic serviceman the world has ever known: the Confederate soldier.
If you are a truth-seeker and want to know why Confederate monuments should be treated as national treasures, you owe it to yourself to read the deeply researched works of world acclaimed Southern historian Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook, starting with his highly topical book, Confederate Monuments: Why Every American Should Honor Confederate Soldiers and Their Memorials.
Conveniently divided into three sections, the first debunks the fake history fabricated by the Left to conceal the facts about Lincoln's War and turn America against the South. Here we learn about the true history of the conflict, the early tradition of nationwide U.S. support for Confederate soldiers, the unique origins of Southern patriotism, the legal rights of the Confederate dead, and the many stringent preservation laws surrounding their memorials. The second section provides a massive pictorial sampling of the thousands of Confederate monuments that dot the American landscape, arranged alphabetically by state and city. The book ends with a fascinating appendices section comprising 19th-Century speeches, addresses, articles, and lists related to the Confederacy and her awe-inspiring granite landmarks.
Throughout this densely illustrated work, the award-winning author sprinkles scores of additional Confederate images from the Victorian Era, along with dozens of poems, quotes, and genuine inscriptions from Confederate statues, all which add further educational value to this already powerful and informative pictorial primer. This is the only book of its kind, and the only one you will ever need to combat the Yankee myths and Liberal lies surrounding the phony "controversial" issue of Confederate soldiers and their precious stone memorials.
Colonel Seabrook confidently predicts that thousands of new Confederate monuments will go up in the future. Because once the historical truths revealed in his book are more widely known, President McKinley's charge that all Americans should share in honoring the Confederate dead will be taken seriously, and patriots everywhere will be clamoring to help fund, build, and raise as many memorials as possible to our country's heroic men in gray Available in paperback and hardcover.

Whether you're a Conservative, Liberal, Libertarian, or Independent, this ground-breaking book is a must-read! Thanks to the ongoing efforts of progressives, the stunning facts about the relationship between conservatism and confederation have been all but lost, hidden beneath an avalanche of misinformation and disinformation created by those who don't want you to know the truth.
Were you aware, for instance, that the United States of America began as a confederacy in 1781, that this was the preferred form of government of the Conservative Founding Fathers, that there were ten Confederate presidents of the U.S. before George Washington, and that the U.S. was literally known as "the Confederate States of America" by both Americans and foreigners well into the 1800s? Did you know that the Southern Confederacy of 1861 was created, not to destroy the Union as pro-North partisans claim, but rather to continue the Founders' original Confederate States of America, and that this is why the South gave itself this same name?
In Confederacy 101: Amazing Facts You Never Knew About America's Oldest Political Tradition, award-winning scholar Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook gives the reader a brief but jam-packed crash course on the history of confederation. Profusely illustrated, thoroughly researched, and clearly written, this enlightening work contains 84 little known, little discussed facts about America's many confederacies, dating from ancient times into the present.
You'll learn why the Conservative American Founders chose to confederate the original 13 colonies, why Liberals immediately set out to undermine the first Confederate States of America, why small government Conservative Jefferson Davis and the traditional South tried to resuscitate it in 1861, and why big government Liberal Abraham Lincoln and the progressive North went to war in an attempt to crush it. For academics Col. Seabrook has provided an index, extensive notes, and a comprehensive bibliography.
Discover for yourself why the old Confederacy stills burns brightly in the hearts of millions of Conservative Southerners, as well as lovers of liberty around the world. Read this explosive book, the first and only one of its kind, and share it with your family, friends, and coworkers. It's time to bring a halt to the Left's gradual demolition of the U.S. Constitution and reinstate the confederate ideals intended by the Founding Generation. This book will help lead the way!

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.

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.
