Francis Johnson (1792-1844)
"Johnson pursued all phases of his music with unmatched skill and fervor, even to the detriment of his health. At the time of his untimely death in 1844, Johnson had become the most prolific and widely traveled American composer, bandmaster, and performer in our nation's first century."--Jacket.
The Negro Leagues Were Major Leagues
How good was Negro League Baseball (1920-1948)? Some experts maintain that the quality of play was equal to that of the American and National Leagues. Some believe the Negro Leagues should be part of Major League Baseball's official record and that more Negro League players should be in the Hall of Fame. Skeptics contend that while many players could be rated highly, NL organizations were minor league at best. Drawing on the most comprehensive data available, including stats from more than 2,000 interracial games, this study finds that black baseball was very good indeed. Negro leaguers beat the big leaguers more than half the time in head-to-head contests, demonstrated stronger metrics within their own leagues and excelled when finally allowed into the majors. The authors document the often duplicitous manner in which MLB has dealt with the legacy of the Negro Leagues, and an appendix includes the scores and statistics from every known contest between Negro League and Major League teams.

The firearms produced at Harpers Ferry, the southern site for the federal government's arsenal-armory established in 1794, were used in the Lewis and Clark expedition, the War of 1812, the Mexican War, and in virtually all of the battles of the Civil War. This work is fully illustrated with photographs and drawings of all models of firearms produced at Harpers Ferry, and documented by weapons expert and genealogist Stuart Brown Jr.
