James McKay, U.S. Army Scout
From the Author of 'War Paint' After the Civil War... Having survived four long bloody years of slaughter and horrors, Ex-Confederate Colonel James McKay stakes his hopes on finding a new beginning in the west, but instead finds violence and death. Desperate for a new livelihood, he accepts a scout position for the U.S. Army who aim to capture gunrunners selling surplus Civil War repeating rifles to the marauding Sioux. By accident, McKay stumbles onto a more dangerous plot involving stolen Gatling guns and renegade tribes. The thrilling search is on for a slippery gunrunner by the name of Wild Bill. McKay is hot on his trail, joining forces with Ezekiel, an old but ornery mountain man with a score to settle. Saddle up, W.R. Benton gives us another fast-paced, and action-packed tale of the old west. “James McKay, US Army Scout, is a book about honor. James McKay out Virginians the Virginian with his actions.” —James Drury, “The Virginian”

Trojans 1962: John Mckay's First National Championship
In 1962, following two losing seasons, Coach John McKay was fighting for his job. The 1962 team was undersized but smart quick and tough. Although underdogs in four games, including the Rose Bowl, the Trojans finished with an 11-0 record and defeated Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl and become national champions. Although the 1962 Trojans were the least talented of Coach McKays four national championship teams, their success enabled USC to once again become a football power. Youll meet the players from this team and learn about their joys and sorrows as well their successes and failures. The team included tempestuous end Prince Hal Bedsole, who still holds USCs season and career records for most yards per reception. Fleet Willie Brown, whose clutch plays on offense and defense preserved an undefeated season. Fiery Trojan captain Marv Marinovich, whose athletic techniques have become legendary, and Fred Hill, whose daughter, Kim, became the inspiration for the Ronald McDonald House.
Born to Sing
Two gifted, good-looking opera singers, from different cultures and opposite sides of the track in Texas, discover that falling in love is wonderful. But love may not be enough if it interferes with their dreams of success in the ruthlessly competitive world of opera. D.J. McKay's dream of singing in European opera houses clashes with his rich daddy's prejudices against such a "sissy" career; his obsession with beautiful Eva Villalobos doesn't sit well with his socialite mother, either. Meanwhile, Eva strives to help her poor family financially by achieving success on the stage. So what happens when their passion for each other thwarts their dreams? How can their relationship survive three-thousand miles of separation? Will their ambition to succeed kill the only true love they have ever known?

Robeson County
The history of Robeson County reaches farther back than its creation in 1787 and reflects the impressive story of North Carolina. Carved out of the fertile farmlands on the border between North and South Carolina, Robeson is the Tarheel State's largest county at 948 square miles. It has been called "The State of Robeson" not only because of its size but also because of the fierce independence and self-reliance of its people. The county is unique in its almost equally balanced tri-racial population. The residents-Native American, African American, and white-have worked together over the centuries to create a culturally diverse community. Agriculture and textiles abound in the county's past, as well as transportation innovations, like the largest wartime glider air base ever built. Indeed, Robeson County's citizens have served in every American conflict from the Revolutionary War on, including its own internal war-the Lowery War-which lasted 10 years.
