Sergeant Major Marion Hill Fitzpatrick, a soldier in the 45th Georgia Regiment in the Army of Northern Virginia, wrote his wife Amanda over 100 letters, frequently describing both the horror of combat and the deplorable conditions of hospitals. Fighting in the corps of A. P. Hill, Fitzpatrick, an extremely literate individual, reveals his loyalty for the Confederacy and most of all to his family. His letters reveal a man who longed to be home with his beloved wife and their newborn son. These letters testify to the humanity, courage, and dedication of the Civil War soldier. Although they have been around for over two decades in a private family printing, these letters are published complete with annotations in a paperback edition for the first time.
The Floating World - Amanda in the City
Adam Cain is in his fifties, a lover of art and beautiful things; but his soul is jaded, a little damaged, a little decadent. He finds simple pleasure in the daily ritual of cafes and coffee in the mornings, and slowly makes simple friendships with the young women who work behind the counters. Over time, the grace and beauty of these women breaks down his reserve, and seduction begins. But who is seducing whom? The writing has been described as, "silkily erotic... slow and sensuous descriptions of an elegant world beyond time and place... layer on layer of lovely, well written imagery... a place to escape..." This novella, Amanda in the City, is the first of A.A.Cain's Lunchtime Erotica books, a collection of stories issued in a convenient pocket-book format, ideal for quiet reading over lunch or during a coffee break. An e-book edition is also available: The Floating World - Urban Erotica.
