A new, definitive queer history of the CommonwealthQueer Virginia is a long-needed record of the courageous and creative ways that LGBTQ+ people across the commonwealth have persevered and fought for their rights. The history recovered here is remarkable and illuminating, including the life of Hannah Nokes, a Black transgender woman who overcame severe discrimination in Loudon County during the 1930s; the story of the Hershee Bar, a historic lesbian bar in Norfolk and longtime community focal point; efforts to gather oral histories and produce a queer digital archive in the old capital of the Confederacy, and much more. Full of poignant and telling glimpses of LGBTQ+ life through the decades, this volume reveals generations of widespread prejudice and oppressive laws and the inspiring resilience that queer Virginians brought to this struggle.

When romance was met with murder...Arthur Jordan and Elvira Corder were young and unafraid, but their love was doomed. He was black, she was white, and this was Virginia in 1880. When Elvira became pregnant, the couple fled Fauquier County to live in Maryland. But her father found them and recruited neighbors to help kidnap them. Four nights later, a mob dragged Arthur from the county jail in Warrenton and lynched him. Elvira, taken to a hotel in Williamsport, Maryland, was never heard from again. Stories of lynching are all too common in the postbellum South, but this one tells a unique tale of a couple who were willing to sacrifice everything to be together--and did.Author Jim Hall tells a classic tale of forbidden love, one of hope crushed by hate.

The Beale Papers: Presenting details of an alleged burial of gold, silver and jewels near Goose Creek, Bedford, County, Virginia, by Tho

This memoir is an account of the Clayton brother's attempts in solving the riddle to locate the infamous Beale treasure. A riddle that was first printed in a 1885 pamphlet entitled The Beale Papers. These papers were the center of a controversial claim, wherein a narrative describes the origins of a treasure, amounting to a modern estimate of $20 million, that was buried somewhere in the Virginian county of Bedford in 1819 and enlarged again with another deposit in 1821. However, to find the location of the treasure, one must first crack the ciphers found within the Beale Papers. This memoir follows the journey of the historical attempt of two brothers to solve these ciphers that began at the end of the 19th century. The research within provides the reader with additional history not outlined in the original pamphlet, and a very detailed analysis of the papers and the code within them.

West Virginia Politics and Government offers the only recent study of politics in the Mountain State. Combining new empirical information about political behavior with a close examination of the capacity of the state’s government, this second edition is a comprehensive and pointed study of the ability of the state’s government to respond to the needs of a largely rural and relatively low-income population. The authors discuss public demands on state government, the shaping of the political agenda by interest groups, elections and the role of political parties, and the influence of the federal government on the state’s political and administrative functions. The book also examines the nature of the state’s constitution and the role of governmental institutions, including the state legislature, the governor, and the state bureaucracy, in the making of public policy and the construction of a state budget, as well as the judiciary and local governments. The concluding chapter assesses the future of governance in the state.

Butterflies of West Virginia and the Central Appalachians illuminates a world hotspot of biodiversity at a crossroads of northern and southern habitats. Butterflies are a stunning example of this multiplicity, with 124 species appearing regularly. In this first-of-its-kind guide, Susan P. Olcott and Casey B. Rucker introduce readers to the natural history, statewide occurrence, and conservation concerns of this dazzling array of butterflies. In 2012, West Virginia's Division of Natural Resources began a large-scale, statewide butterfly atlas project. Constructed from survey results and historical archives, this book is accessible enough for those just beginning to explore butterflies and detailed enough to provide a valuable reference for professionals. Geographical maps in the species accounts show recent and historical butterfly occurrence, while flight-period graphs show the timing of their appearances as adults. One hundred seventy-five color photos allow readers to witness the colorful wings and habitats of central Appalachian butterflies. A definitive resource for understanding these important pollinators, Butterflies of West Virginia and the Central Appalachians will inform conservation efforts for decades to come.
