Insufficient Funds
Insufficient Funds: The Financial Life of Frank Lloyd Wright By Peter C. Alexander Dozens of books have been written about architect Frank Lloyd Wright’s architecture, aesthetic, and various design achievements; however, no one has looked at his business practices… until now. In this book, Peter Alexander focuses on the financial life of this American architectural genius after more than fifteen years of research. Wright was a spendthrift who earned a considerable fortune over his lifetime, but he was a man who never had sufficient funds to meet his expenses. Most often, his lack of financial stability was because he had an insatiable need to spend money on Japanese art, pianos, cars, an...
Beg for Mercy
They framed Sam Parker for a crime he didn't commit. Now he's out of prison and looking for answers. They should have killed him when they had the chance. "Bagby is a brash and welcome voice on the crime fiction scene." -- Scott Nicholson, author of "Liquid Fear." Radnor Yard Press presents the Mid-Century Series.

Auburn Football
Football is one of Auburn's oldest and most beloved institutions. Formally established as a varsity sport by Dr. George Petrie in 1891, Auburn's football team has proudly represented the school for over a century. The team shares some of the South's oldest college football rivalries with the University of Georgia and the University of Alabama-a rivalry tested annually in the Iron Bowl. Throughout their history, the Tigers have earned the honor of SEC Champions and a national championship and have been featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated; the team has produced many professional players and Hall of Fame inductees. Auburn football also boasts a very dedicated legion of fans, who love to cheer on their Tigers, both at home and away. The images contained within Auburn Football illustrate the team's impressive history, filled with legendary coaches such as Shug Jordan and John Heisman, and Heisman trophy-winning players Pat Sullivan and Bo Jackson. Auburn's football tradition will continue to delight fans and attract players for decades to come.
Bracketing the Enemy
After the end of World War II, General George Patton declared that artillery had won the war. Yet howitzers did not achieve victory on their own. Crucial to the success of these big guns were forward observers, artillerymen on the front lines who directed the artillery fire. Until now, the vital role of forward observers in ground combat has received little scholarly attention. In Bracketing the Enemy, John R. Walker remedies this oversight by offering the first full-length history of forward observer teams during World War II. As early as the U.S. Civil War, artillery fire could reach as far as two miles, but without an “FO” (forward observer) to report where the first shot had landed i...
The Soldier's Words
Since I began Civil War re-enacting in 1988, there have been two schools of thought regarding the uniform of the Confederate soldiers. One is that the Rebels were never ragged, that was just a romantic myth started after the war. The other school of thought is that the Rebels were always ragged and wore whatever they could get their hands on. I decided that the best way to discover the truth is by investigating, what the soldiers themselves said regarding their clothing through letters, diaries and memoirs. This book uses the soldiers own words regarding Confederate uniforms and includes many surprising anecdotes and some "firsts" regarding incidents of the Civil War.
Civil War Journal
Based on the History Channel documentary series. How the Civil War sparked profound changes in slavery, immigration, women’s roles, journalism, and more. “In many arenas, the Civil War changed things both in military and civilian life,” William C. Davis observes. “The roles in society of women and minorities were altered drastically. Advancements in medicine and technology exerted a profound impact on the future. Industry burgeoned. The reporting of news entered the modern era with the photograph. Culture changed as the complexion of Americans evolved and as war’s wounds imposed lasting divisions upon our society. It ensured at once that future wars would be more terrible, and yet ...
