The Lion and the Lily
This book is a story of murder, love, and revenge set in the early 1400s when the Lollard heresy, which believed the Bible should be read in English so that all could hear the Word of God without reinterpretation from the clergy, was being persecuted and innocent victims were burned at the stake. All this is recounted against the background of the Hundred Years War between England and France and the climactic Battle of Agincourt.
The Templar Legacy
The Year is 1423. The English invasion of France is faltering due to lack of money, but an opportunity arises for the English to acquire a fabulous treasure which will resolve their financial problems and allow the conquest of France to be completed. But this requires Captain Richard Calveley to undertake a perilous journey to the Holy Land which is now controlled by the Turks, where he encounters love, betrayal and an old enemy.
The Angel Of Lorraine
The year is 1428. The English invasion of France has reached the line of the River Loire at Orleans. Both sides realize that the coming battle will decide the winner of the war between them which has lasted almost a hundred years. An English victory will end the dauphin’s slim chances of retaining his right to the French throne, but if the French are victorious the myth of English invincibility will be broken at last. The English need more men but the French need nothing less than a miracle.

Women Making War
Partisan activities of disloyal women and the Union army’s reaction During the American Civil War, more than four hundred women were arrested and imprisoned by the Union Army in the St. Louis area. The majority of these women were fully aware of the political nature of their actions and had made conscious decisions to assist Confederate soldiers in armed rebellion against the U.S. government. Their crimes included offering aid to Confederate soldiers, smuggling, spying, sabotaging, and, rarely, serving in the Confederate army. Historian Thomas F. Curran’s extensive research highlights for the first time the female Confederate prisoners in the St. Louis area, and his thoughtful analysis s...
