Union or Confederate, those in command proved adept at making mistakes. Many leaders were drunkards, couldn't speak English, didn't know a cannon's breech from its muzzle. Among the galleries of heroes were: Colonel Edward Baker, who told his Federals to follow the plume of his hat if they wanted to find war--and sent them over a cliff in a panicked retreat; General Felix Zollicoffer, who wore a white raincoat so opposing Federals could see him--but not his eyeglasses so he could see them;Thomas Selfridge of the Union navy, who found two torpedoes and removed them by placing his vessel over them; Colonel Alfred Rhett, a captured Southern blue blood whose fancy boots proved too small for every Union officer who coveted them; Rum-drinking James Ledlie and dance-instructing Edward Ferrero, generals who kept each other company in a Union bombproof while their men faced slaughter; From Fort Sumter to Appomattox, Civil War Blunders traces the war according to its amusing, often deadly miscues. Lurking behind every significant action, as readers will discover, was someone with a red face. …

Paperback. Etat : Good. What the PC Police don't want you to know--and what they got plain wrong--about the SouthFrom the Founding Fathers to the frontiersmen who tamed the West to the country music, NASCAR, Biblethumping heart of "Red State" America, the South is the quintessence of what's original, unique, and most loved about American culture. And with its emphasis on traditional values, family, faith, military service, good manners, small government, and independent-minded people, the South is just plain more livable than the North--which is one reason why millions of Yankees, white and black, have been moving down South in droves.The Politically Incorrect Guide(tm) to the South gives you the facts behind scores of revelations like these:· How Southerners led the way in drafting the Declaration of Independence, the U.S. Constitution, and the Bill of Rights· How the Northern victory led to today's all-powerful federal government· Why race relations in today's South are much better than in the North--or anywhere else in America· Why the South is naturally conservative (and the North is naturally liberal)· How American jazz, blues, and rock and roll all came from the South· Why Southerners are overrepresented in the military--and no, it's not poverty· The best American literature? Southern, of course"The South is all about memory, heritage, and pride of place," writes Clint Johnson. "I refuse to go along with the expunging of that memory, heritage, and pride, and I hope the readers of this book, Northern and Southern, will rise up and join me in protesting those who are trying to do it.".…

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. The only reason I first went after the Charon MC's newest Daughter of the Club, Jacie, was to keep her safe for the night. But fate had other plans.From the first mouthful of sass she threw my way, the woman got under my skin like no other ever had. Especially when the fiery Aussie redhead seems determined to ignore the intense chemistry that's sparking between us. The more Jacie pushes me away, the more I want to get burned by her flames, even if she is over a decade younger than me.But before I can convince her to let me claim her for my own, she's kidnapped and taken to my birthplace, Kaua'i, Hawai'i. A place I hadn't been back to since I'd left for USMC boot camp over twenty years ago. But I refuse to abandon my woman to fight her father's past deeds alone, even if it means I'll need to face my own past demons to do it.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. New York City, November 25, 1864. Confederate officers attempt to destroy the city with a series of lethal fires that will forever diminish it to a mere speck of an island. What fueled these Southern patriots' rage? And what if they had succeeded? This terrifying scenario almost became a reality following what the New York Herald declared a vast and fiendish plot. Infuriated by the Union's killing of their beloved General John Hunt Morgan and the burning of the Shenandoah Valley, eight Confederate officers swore revenge. Their method: Greek fire. Their target: Manhattan's commercial district. The daring mission could have changed the course of American history. In the first book to bring to life this bold conspiracy in full detail, Civil War expert Clint Johnson reveals shocking facts about the treacherous alliances and rivalries that threatened nineteenth-century America. Here is the truth about this stunning event, the spirit that fueled it, and the near destruction of the world's most influential city. A fresh and intriguing addition to Civil War literature. Johnson dispels myths and shows how Southerners sought to take revenge on a 'sister city' they felt betrayed them. -Brion McClanahan, author of The Politically Incorrect Guide to the Founding Fathers Insightful analysis of an amazing turn of events that nearly set New York City ablaze during the Civil War. - David J. Eicher, author of The Longest Night.…
