Like a bear with his stern in a corner
This book documents a part of the Southern Campaign of the American Revolution immediately after the Race to the Dan and leading up to the Battle at Guilford Courthouse. The period between February and March 1781 was an important time for North Carolina as well as America as a whole. Patriot forces continued to skirmish with British Gen Cornwallis. Although none of these events were paramount or decisive, they illustrated the fortitude of the American Spirit. This strong resolve sent a clear message to the British that the patriots would rather fight than remain logy to the King. Read about Hart’s Mill, Pyle’s Defeat, Clapp’s Mill and Weitzel’s Mill. Learn what occurred, the issues and impacts surrounding each of these unique events. The title of this book comes from a letter written by Col. Otho Williams to Gen Greene describing Cornwallis’ tactics during this time period, detailing one of the many aspects that are fully documented in this book.

Civil War in the American Revolution
This book details the civil war that occurred in North Carolina during the American Revolutionary War. The fighting between Tory and Patriot was severe, and the Southern Campaign is not that well known. This book focuses on this aspect of the Revolutionary War. It includes a lot of details, from primary sources so that the reader can get first hand knowledge from those invovled and not just prose from an author or historian.

Every Blood of them Tories - Complete Guide to Pyle's Defeat
During the American Revolution in North Carolina, there was a very controversial event when Robert E. Lee's dad - Henry "Light Horse Harry" Lee using a discretionary tactic (stratagem) removed over 300 Tories from service. John Pyle was leading his Loyalist men to locate Col Tarleton of the British Army and mistaking Lee's men for Tarleton, resulted in a bloody fight, killing many of the Tories. This has been given the name of Pyle's Defeat, Pyle's Massacre, and Pyle's Hacking Match. What makes this story, about the same old story different? Primarily it is in the way the information is provided to the reader, in a very methodical approach, as well as, providing all of the information to the reader, and not let the authors "add value" by re-writing what those who were there, had to say. Included is a research section on the Pyle and Holt families and other land/map/area research to assist in documenting possible locations of this event.

Orange County, NC - Bridge Records - 1787 - 1865
Bridge records are petitions from the public requesting a bridge to be errected across a river/stream/creek typically where fords used to be, or at locations nearby these earlier crossings. Sometimes, although rare, they would develop a new road, but it would require a bridge across a stream. Never the less, this book, like the many volumes of road records, has an image of the petition along with a short transcript of the informaiton. Some maps show these bridges and as I could locate them in modern times I added those maps as well. A great research tool for road locations, migration paths and some interesting construction information (minimal) costs etc.

These court records reside in the Archives of N.C. at Raleigh. This is NOT an exhaustive content, in that, there were records that have signatures and text not explaining locations as well as numerous overseer records that I did NOT include. This book has the image of the record and a short transcript pertaining to the location. This is indexed and there is a table of content so that each record (title given) can be easily found.

I found that the Guilford County records have some interesting historical information about the times, areas etc. This volume includes the time-frame when the NC Railroad was being built and the impact to the roads were two fold. First you have people wanting to change the routes due to the railroad and then people wanted a road from their village to the DEPOT! Some mention business as the reason. Never the less, these records expose more than just complaints.

The TRUTH about Natural Gas
The second book to discuss the facts on Natural Gas, with a focus (ultimately) on the stock market. NG isn't the same as crude oil, there is a lot of it, supply and demand issues are different, and the price is relatively inexpensive, which causes other issues.

The Manual of The Mother Church - A Historical Overview (B&W)
This is a very detailed book showing the changes to the Manual of the Mother Church over the 89 versions or editions. Mrs. Eddy said that the Manual was changed as events required. This book is an attempt to define "cause and event" throughout all 89 editions. HOWEVER, my collection does not have all 89 editions. With the help of other resources, I have at least 3/4 or more of the editions covered. Actually it could be closer to 90-95% are covered, with ranges, that is - bylaw was changed from this to that, between the 56 and 62 edition, for example. In the last half of the book I focus on the Tenets and key functions with a description of Manual changes by function. Example - Readers - all the changes for this activity. The first part of the book goes by edition number.
