Nothing Over Truth
Nothing Over Truth is Michael R. Bradley's deeply self-reflective autobiography about a youthful black male, his confrontational relationship with the streets and how 38-years of incarceration have helped him to reach a keen sense of awareness about life and death. Bradley's historical journey through family relationships and oppressive social conditions serves as an example of how ritual acts of anti-black racism lead to assault, death and a life of incarceration. As a former member of the Harlem Crips in Los Angeles, Nothing Over Truth is offered as deterrence for this generation of youngsters flirting with the idea of criminal activity.
Great Smokies Myths and Legends
Is it possible that the woman who raised Abraham Lincoln was actually his half-sister, and that the man he knew as his grandfather had conducted a scandalous affair with a servant girl? Was Nancy Dude really a murderous witch, or the victim of relentless calamities that would stretch anyone beyond the bounds of sanity? Should Horace Kephart be considered a hero for his work to protect the area of the Great Smokies, where a moutain was named in his honor, or a drunken scoundrel who uprooted families from the homes and farms they’d had for generations?

The Cavalry of the Army of the Ohio
At the outset of the Civil War, the cavalry of the Army of the Ohio (Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, and Tennessee) was a fledgling force beginning an arduous journey that would make it the best cavalry in the world. In late 1862, most of this cavalry was transferred to the Army of the Cumberland and a second cavalry force emerged in the second Army of the Ohio. Throughout the war, these regiments fought in some of the most important military operations of the war, including Camp Wildcat; Mill Springs; the siege of Corinth; raids into East Tennessee; the capture of Morgan during his Great Raid; and the campaigns of Middle Tennessee, Perryville, Knoxville, Atlanta, and Nashville. This is their complete history.
