Roster of Revolutionary Soldiers in Georgia
Mrs. McCall's roster of Georgia soldiers in the Revolution was compiled over many years. The work as a whole is cumulative, with only slight, albeit significant, differences in the kinds of information which may be found in one volume versus another. This volume (Volume III) is the longest of the work and contains records of officers and soldiers. The majority of the entries are for Georgia officers and soldiers, although some material relates to other states. Clearfield Company also publishes Volumes I and II of this monumental work. Volume I ocontains the records of hundreds of Revolutionary War soldiers and officers of Georgia, with genealogies of their families, and lists of soldiers buried in Georgia whose graves have been located. The arrangement of Volume II is similar; however, it contains records of officers and soldiers not only from Georgia but also from other states, many of whose descendants later came to Georgia because of liberal land grants. This is an extremely rich work, covering several thousand Revolutionary soldiers and referring to as many as 20,000 persons overall, each of whom is easily found in the name index at the back of each volume.

Leaders of Men
What was it that transformed the United States Marine Corps from a quasi-constabulary in 1861 to one of the world's elite fighting forces by 1918?

The Civil War attracted to the USMC a handful of young men who were natural leaders. These men then trained another cohort of talented, tenacious leaders, who, in turn, molded the men who led the Marine Corps into the twentieth century. Many of their names have faded in the brighter lights of the campaigns in the Pacific, Korea, and Vietnam, but without men like Huntington, Cochrane, and M...

Masterpieces
In commemoration of its fiftieth anniversary, the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts Council has created a beautiful cookbook, Masterpieces: A Celebration of Food and Art in Virginia, which offers a magnificent selection of recipes and artwork from around Virginia. Masterpieces, the second cookbook published by the VMFA Council, collects eighty-three recipes gathered from arts organizations and their supporters around Virginia. Contributors include many notable Virginians, such as the former first ladies of Virginia Lynda Robb and Virginia Holton, Alma Powell, and chefs from VMFA, the Governor's Mansion, the Jefferson Hotel, Barboursville Vineyards, and the Trellis, to name a few. Recipes range from the simple (Boursin Cheese Spread) to the more ambitious (Maestro Lobster Ravioli with Bisque Sauce), and akin to the art, the recipes vary from traditional (Monticello Muffins) to more contemporary fare (Pistachio-Crusted Rockfish). Whether simple or more elaborate to prepare, traditional or contemporary, the recipes here represent the rich diversity of Virginia's cuisines - and their results are delicious. Bon appetit!
