One of Morgan's Men
John Marion Porter (1839--1898) grew up working at his family's farm and dry goods store in Butler County, Kentucky. The oldest of Reverend Nathaniel Porter's nine children, he was studying to become a lawyer when the Civil War began. As the son of a family of slave owners, Porter identified with the Southern cause and wasted little time enlisting in the Confederate army. He and his lifelong friend Thomas Henry Hines served in the Ninth Kentucky Calvary under John Hunt Morgan, the "Thunderbolt of the Confederacy." When the war ended, Porter and Hines opened a law practice together, but Porter was concerned that the story of his service during the Civil War and his family's history would be l...
Mary Bell
"Now that Mary Bell attained her goal as a New York model, she became obsessed for attention and recognition by everyone, subconsciously erasing images from her mind of the poor girl walking a mile to school on a snowy day, wearing second hand torn shoes." Musa Shihadeh met Mary Bell at a Lebanese Diner in Detroit. She was 18, the abused daughter of a drunken preacher. Mr. Shihadeh was an international entrepreneur. His first marriage was no longer working, and Mary Bell seemed to fit the bill. The attraction was instantaneous. He afforded her the comfort of a life she never dreamed of. But the storybook romance was built on illusion and fantasy doomed for peril in the nightmare of schizophrenia and clinical paranoia.

City of Dust
Mark Twain's boyhood home of Hannibal, Missouri, often brings to mind romanticized images of Twain's fictional characters Huck Finn or Tom Sawyer exploring caves and fishing from the banks of the Mississippi River. In City of Dust, Gregg Andrews tells another story of the Hannibal area, the very real story of the exploitation and eventual destruction of Ilasco, Missouri, an industrial town created to serve the purposes of the Atlas Portland Cement Company. In this new edition, Andrews provides an introduction detailing the impact of this book since its initial publication in 1996. He writes of a new twist in the Ilasco saga, one that concerns the Continental Cement Company’s attempt, not unlike Atlas’s one hundred years earlier, to manipulate the sale of a piece of land near its plant in the town. He explores the uneasy relationship between preservationists and the plant’s CEO and officials in St. Louis; the growing movement to preserve Ilasco’s heritage, including the building of a monument to commemorate the early residents of the town; and the grassroots petition drive and letter-writing campaign that stopped the Continental Cement Company’s machinations.
