Download or read book Ghost Stories of Eastern Kentucky written by Bill Carpenter and published by America Star Books. This book was released on 2011-10 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here in Eastern Kentucky not everyone believes in ghosts, but almost everyone has a ghost story to tell. Some of the stories I have collected are very personal and others are legends or stories that have been passed down from generation to generation. The stories I have collected cover a wide range of topics. The topics include everything from strange unexplainable noises to full bodied apparitions. Eastern Kentucky is rich with ghost stories and folklore and these are just a few. Herman Webb, brother of country music icon Loretta Lynn submitted stories of his youth and strange occurrences that took place in the small coal town of Van Lear, located in Johnson County. Every story in this book means something to the people who shared them with me. This book is just a glimpse into the lives, legends and stories of the people who live on the "Dark and Bloody Ground"

Book excerpt: Dimos Horacki is a Borolian journalist and a cynical patriot, his muckraking days behind him. But when his newspaper ships him to the front, he’s embedded in the Imperial Army and the reality of colonial expansion is laid bare before him. His adventures take him from villages and homesteads to the great refugee city of Hronople, built of glass, steel, and stone, all while a war rages around him. The empire fights for coal and iron, but the anarchists of Hron fight for their way of life. A Country of Ghosts is a novel of utopia besieged and a tale that challenges every premise of contemporary society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ghost Research is archaeological work that requires specific field practices. This book introduces the investigative techniques of a "ghost archaeology". This is defined as a scientific discipline of the "ordinary", a search for the repetitive patterns of cultural behavior that can be unearthed during an field investigation. Six case studies of cultural hauntings are presented which illustrate the usefulness of archaeological methodology and techniques in field research. The investigation of ghostly presence at Gettysburg, in the anthracite coal region, at Eastern State Penitentiary in Philadelphia, and a Civil War haunting in Petersburg, Virginia are cited. These investigations show how potential evidential data can be uncovered, if only the investigators would maintain an archaeological sensibility in their fieldwork operations.

Download or read book The Anthracite Coal Region written by John G. Sabol Jr and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2008-03-24 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an archaeological excavation of anomalous phenomena that still lingers to haunt various locations in the anthracite coal region of Northeastern Pennsylvania. The unearthing of this haunting presence is both a metaphorical excavation (the bringing "into the light" of various dramas, events, and experiences of an individual and collective nature), and a physical engagement (the emergence of ghostly presence through investigative field performances). This anthracite coal region drama is viewed through the use of a "deep map" of short, but compendious, "ghost" narratives. This "deep map" consists of autobiographical events, symmetrical archaeological practices, memories of local places, ethnic folklore, haunting traces and manifestations, natural history, the use of ascientific fieldmethodology, and a sincere, and profound,sensitivity to the land. These "ghost" narratives are a subtle, multi-layered and "deep mining" of a small regional landscape that has long been neglected, and been perceived as "insignificant" social history. This book is meant to change that perceptionthrough a sensualunearthing of its haunting uncertainties.
