Описание:

This nonfiction work takes the reader on a trip through the 1940s and 50s in the rural South. The story unfolds in the lower reaches of the Appalachian Mountain chain on a plateau called Brindley Mountain. A part of the Sand Mountain Ridge, the area covers lower Morgan County and north east Cullman County. In an earlier time, the Choctaw, Chickasaw, Cherokee, and Creek hunted in relative peace across these ridges and valleys of north-central Alabama. In 1873, a young, rebellious Bavarian named Johann Gottfried Cullmann came into the area seeking a peaceful haven for his immigrating countrymen. He ultimately selected a large swath of this gently-sloping and pine-forested wilderness for his new Deutsche Kolonie. Other hardly pioneers began to homestead the free federal lands. This produced a rather odd mingling for the rural South. A fledgling town grew rapidly with its blacksmith shops, cotton gins, grist mills, ice house, and merchant class.

On a hardscrabble farm south of this bustling county seat, a young boy grew to manhood dreaming of future journeys and conquests. On the back porch of a little clapboard house, this would-be traveler contemplated the wide horizon stretching out in all directions, full of seemingly endless possibilities and challenges.

Dr. C. Eugene Scruggs retired following a long career as professor and administrator in higher education. Dr. Scruggss career covered forty years at four US universities and two European.

Описание:

After years of wandering across Europe, playing the fool, singing and strumming the lute for bishops and princes, as well as in the bawdiest of country taverns, I, Charles Coypeau Dassoucy, the last of the roving troubadours, have returned to Paris, my beloved native city. My once golden locks have turned to silver. I have four less teeth. My keen eyes now require the aid of Florentine spectacles. But on the plus side, I return with fifty rousing drinking songs, a collection of verses, and what's best, five hundred shiny gold pistols, which I managed to spirit out of the clutches of that murderous Duke of Mantua and his henchmen.

Описание: These six stories escort them with a care that either respects, or mocks, the dignity of all. The film stars Tom Waits, James Franco, Liam Neeson, Tim Bake Nelson and Zoe Kazan and is shot with the harsh grandeur of the classic John Ford westerns.

Описание:

In December of 2000, the authors husband, Randall, fell from a deer stand while hunting and broke both legs in several places. Randall had always been a strong, healthy, hardworking man with a wonderful job, but this took him and his family to a very low place in their lives. He spent three months in the hospital and had five surgeries to repair his legs. The doctors said he would never walk again Shirley carried many burdens during that time including tending to a crippled and broken man and handling crashing finances because he was unable to work. Feeling really hopeless and alone, she shed many tears and prayed very hard. One night (actually about 2:00 a.m. in February of 2001), she sat up on the edge of her cot in her husbands hospital room and begin to write in a journal she was keeping. When she finished writing her prayer to God, she read it and realized that it was in the form of a poem (Why Are You So Afraid, My Child) Since that time the poetry has flowed from her heart in a miraculous way. And she has written a huge collection of poetry She believes the poetry is a gift from God to help her express what she is feeling deep inside. It flows from her heart in a matter of minutes and falls onto the page in poetry form She praises God for this gift

Описание:

Company K, in the infantry regiment of the Holcombe Legion, was formed mostly by men from Upstate South Carolina. They were patriotic sons of their state and enlisted long before the draft by the Confederate Government. All the "boys" of Company K had strong independent streaks and thus, were well-suited for service in the unattached brigade commanded by Gen. Nathan Evans. Evans's Brigade was sent to hot spots from Virginia to Mississippi. They saw action from Charleston to Petersburg with Malvern Hill, Second Manassas, Kinston, Jackson, and Rappahannock Station.


Their exploits are narrated by Parson Jud, who was captured twice. After the first, he was paroled. After the second, Jud was imprisoned but soon escaped and walked from Elmira, New York, to Harpers Ferry, aided along the way by pacifists, Copperheads, Dunkards, and Pennsylvania Dutch.
