Mourning in the Old South...According to William Faulkner, "People took funerals seriously in those days. Not death; death was our constant familiar."Welcome to the world of Covered Mirrors, Sin Eaters, Grave Dolls, Resurrection Men and Coffin Torpedoes. Life in the Old South was celebrated, but when loved ones passed they were honored in ways that may seem very peculiar in the light of today's world.In the pages of this book, you'll learn... The origin of having flowers at a funeral service. The real reason why may surprise you... Why some cemeteries featured Grave Houses for those who were buried there... The stories of Mortsafes, Grave Guns and Coffin Collars to foil the dastardly Resurrection Men... The language of the tombstone art that you see in cemeteries across the South... All that, and much, much more. Some may shock you, a few things might make your skin crawl, but you'll find it all to be infinitely interesting - you can't dare look away
In 1861, a house was built in a pecan grove in the city of Jefferson, Texas. It changed hands several times, and soon there were stories being whispered in town about the place. In fact, the third owner moved out with his family after only a few months, telling people, "We can't live there..." Every owner since has encountered the supernatural. For the first time ever, the entire story of The Grove is being told by the current owner.
It all started when Uncle Bubba decided to open a chicken wing restaurant in the tiny town of Cut Plug, Texas. He thought it would be easy, but it took a year of Bubbamania before things came together.

After being summarily thrown out of the upcoming 1964 World's Fair project, presumably at the instruction of JFK himself, billionaire H.L. Hunt turned to John Curington, his attorney, and said, "I've about got a belly-full of those Kennedy boys. They both need to go." A few months later John Kennedy would be dead, followed by his brother a few years later. Formerly undisclosed and privileged information suggests that one man could have had the motive and opportunity to influence the untimely deaths of John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy, along with the disappearance of Jimmy Hoffa. For the first time, John Curington, lawyer to Haroldson Lafayette "H.L." Hunt Jr., divulges once-private information to author Mitchel Whitington, that substantiates the fact that a conspiracy could have indeed existed. Come explore a previously-untold story - the story of John Curington - that may fill gaps in the tragic tales of these important national figures, and provide information that has never been unearthed before. Read it for yourself, and be the judge as to whether H.L. Hunt had both the motive and opportunity to have influenced the deaths of such prominent men.
Whatever you want to say about revenge, that it is all about hurting someone who hurt you, that it is vengeance, the desire or even the compulsion to pay back someone for a wrong against you, it is generally agreed that it is much more satisfying when exacted some time after the initial injury.Mitchel Gause has had an eventful life. He has seen a lot and suffered a lot over the years. His revenge began accidentally but his hate overcame his scruples when his lust for vengeance and for the kill exploded within him, yet to the rest of the world he was a very quiet unassuming man, kind and caring. He was known to be the sort of friend who would do anything for anyone...just don't cross him, he will never, ever forget it.

John Mitchel (1815-75) was born at Camnish, near Dungiven, Co. Derry, the son of a Presbyterian minister. After qualifying as a solicitor, he became a leading contributor to the Nation newspaper and the most militant of the Young Irelanders. Sentenced to 14 years' transportation for attempting to incite rebellion in Ireland in 1848, in captivity he wrote his famous "Jail Journal", which starkly expressed his hatred of the British empire and had an immense influence on later nationalists. Escaping to America after five years, he became a strong supporter of slavery and the Confederate States, and two of his sons died fighting for the South.The harshness of his views, especially his violent hatred of Britain and support for slavery, does much to explain Mitchel's neglect in recent decades. He was, however, one of the most powerful polemical journalists of the nineteenth century and a central figure in the revival of militant Irish nationalism. His portrayal of the famine as deliberate genocide became central to nationalist orthodoxy, and his hatred of British rule and contempt for parliamentary politics did much to inspire Fenianism.This new biography attempts to discover the origins of Mitchel's views, to examine their influence, and to place his anglophobia in a more general critique of the age in which he lived.
