Resumen del Editor
Both survived an earlier Indian war, but can they and their children survive a war that engulfs an entire nation? This narrative historical nonfiction book tells their story of prosperity, Florida in the Civil War, and the devastation of their homeland.
"From Harmony to Hostilities" is a captivating story of Mary Walker Andrews, a strong-willed woman who perseveres through life's trials and tribulations. Set against the backdrop of Antebellum Florida, this tale follows Mary's journey from 1845 to the beginning of the Civil War in 1861.
The state of Florida was a backwater region on the southern edge of the American frontier and Mary, with her five children, two of her own and three of her husband’s from a previous marriage, had to overcome economic hardships, multiple pregnancies, and the devastation of war. Follow the story of Mary and her husband William (a lawman and railroad agent) as they navigate the ups and downs of Florida's first economic boom and bust.
“Palmetto Pioneers” is reminiscent of “A Land Remembered,” but the Palmetto Pioneer’s Florida story begins thirty years earlier. This is the second book in a series of three.

Hilarious, fascinating, and a roller coaster of dizzying, historical what-ifs, Napoleon's Hemorrhoids is a potpourri for serious historians and casual history buffs. In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

The history of the tablets translated in the following book is strange and beyond the belief of modern scientists. Their antiquity is stupendous, dating back some 36,000 years. The writer is Thoth, an Atlantean Priest-King, who founded a colony in ancient Egypt after the sinking of the mother country. He was the builder of the Great Pyramid of Giza, erroneously attributed to Cheops. In it he incorporated his knowledge of the ancient wisdom and also securely secreted records and instruments of ancient Atlantis.

Historia
The history of the Boston Tea Party is a hidden one. Why? Since it was a clandestine operation, all sorts of rumors and legends grew up around the event—many collected decades after the American Revolution had ended. At its core, however, the night of December 16, 1773, when colonials dumped tea from British ships into Boston Harbor, was more than a fight over tea and taxes. It was a struggle over the very nature of democracy and self-governance.

And with only half the population of the North, southerners were at a disadvantage, having only a fraction of the manpower of the federal Army. As the conflict erupted, the North boasted a fleet of warships. The South was severely lacking. It was the age of ironclad vessels, but there was a scarcity of iron ore in the south.

On November 6, 1860, Abraham Lincoln became the fluky victor in a tight race for president. The country was bitterly at odds; Southern extremists were moving ever closer to destroying the Union, with one state after another seceding and Lincoln powerless to stop them. Slavery fueled the conflict, but somehow the passions of North and South came to focus on a lonely federal fortress in Charleston Harbor: Fort Sumter.
