Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the only book on that crucial military department. Over fifty battles waged in an attempt to destroy the Confederacy's only source of salt & lead. Crack Union troops under excellent generals like Crook, Stoneman, & Burbridge launched numerous attacks into the area. The Dixie boys manned the trenches & braved overwhelming odds. Southern generals like Breckinridge, Jackson, "Grumble" Jones, & "The Devil" Morgan struggled valiantly to maintain the critical war materials flow to General Lee. HUNTER'S FIERY RAID THROUGH VIRGINIA VALLEYS; 0-9617897-0-8; $32.95. This is the only accurate account of wicked General David "Black Dave" Hunter's campaign to destroy the Confederacy by stopping the flow of salt & lead through the Shenandoah, James, & Roanoke River Valleys. Hatred clouded Hunter's judgment as he reaped punishment on slave-holding Virginia. Towns were burned, looting & wanton destruction were commonplace. Staunton & Lexington (including V.M.I) were burned. Savage fighting raged around Lynchburg & through the Roanoke-Salem area. CIVIL WAR TALES; 0-9617898-1-6; $25.95. This is a delightful concoction of newly uncovered pure history, hilarious fables, heart wrenching stories, & just plain bull. Based on family stories. Learn interesting facts about Lee, Jackson, Ashby, & John Wilkes Booth. Laugh at a Yankee suitor's rejection, a peed on Southern soldier, terrifying yet comical encounters slaves had with dead persons & live Yankees, & a Reb "Still Holding the Line." Sad tales of cold blooded murder, neighbor against neighbor, burned towns & terrorized citizens, & a Confederate flag in WW II. Under a flavor of the times: women in action, a church that went to war, a ghost story, & vile atrocities. CIVIL WAR TALES, VOL. II; 0-9617898-2-4; $25.95 (even more of a good thing).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Walker has done an outstanding job of explaining the Confederate war effort to protect this area of land and its vital resources. . . . It is the Confederate classic on this particular area of study." --Ed Porter, The Lone Star E-Newsletter During the Civil War, Southwest Virginia's resources were essential to the South's war effort, and its railroads were a lifeline to the rest of the Confederacy. The separation of West Virginia left the area vulnerable to invading Northern armies and led to continual invasions and battles. This area was vital in supplying salt to preserve Southern food and lead for Southern guns. Although Southwest Virginia originally voted to remain part of the Union, support for the developing Confederacy soon grew. Virginia elected to secede from the nation and greatly aided the South in the war. Walker presents a detailed account of the operations in Southwest Virginia. In gripping narrative, he relates the effects of the war on the individual soldier and the nation as a whole. Each major battle over the course of four grueling years is retold, and each strategic decision is examined so that the war itself turns into a human effort, an exhausting struggle to retain the lands in Southwest Virginia for the South. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Gary C. Walker has been a member of the Sons of Confederate Veterans for more than thirty years and has been recognized by the State of South Carolina Legislature for his many accomplishments in Civil War history. Walker is a member of several historic and preservation groups and often participates in Civil War reenactments. He is the author of Civil War Tales, Hunter's Fiery Raid through Virginia Valleys, Confederate Coloring and Learning Book, A General History of the Civil War: The Southern Point of View, and Son of the South, a novel set in Civil War-era Virginia, all published by Pelican.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many people believe that the Civil War was started by the Southern states because of slavery and the issue of secession. Here the author argues differently: Southerners believed that they would benefit from a different form of government than that of their Northern neighbors. Southerners, whose economy depended on agriculture, felt that the industrialized North passed laws and set taxes unfair to the South. In this history, Walker includes descriptions of daring raids, massive battles, and life-and-death struggles that changed one nation and destroyed another. In between are tales of the North's misdeeds, such as the massacre of more than 600 American Indians, the burning of Confederate hospitals, and Lincoln's imprisonment of more than 40,000 citizens who dared to oppose him.

Born to wealth and promise as the son of a plantation owner, Joe Fowler finds that his fate is quickly sealed when his mother dies of childbed fever, a common and deadly ailment in the 19th century. With no available wet-nurses to tend to this new life, Joe's father sends him off with his sister to be cared for. After reuniting with his father, he begins to understand that his life is destined to be different from the lives of his siblings. Conflicts with his family arise, forcing him to pursue his own way. Eventually he makes his mark, finds modest wealth, marries a lovely bride, and marches off to fight in the war.

Book excerpt: "[...]be over, and then the remembrance of your hardships will sweeten the joy of peace. 2. The rules of war require prompt and unquestioning obedience. You may sometimes think the command arbitrary and the officer supercilious, but it is yours to obey. An undisciplined army is a curse to its friends and a derision to its foes. Give your whole influence, therefore, to the maintenance of lawful authority and of strict order. Let your superiors feel assured that whatever they entrust to you will be faithfully done. Composed of such soldiers, and led by skillful and brave commanders, our army, by the blessing of God, will never be defeated. It is, moreover, engaged in a holy cause, and must triumph.[...]."
