In Blue Winged Olive, Tucker Chenoweth helps out a woman on the Appalachian Trail, and makes enemies of the two local men who are harassing her. The incident draws Tucker into a feud with the rednecks, who turn out to be arsonists and meth dealers, and initiates an intimate relationship with Samantha White, the woman from the Trail. Tucker and Sam are both avid fly fishers, who spend as much time as they can spare on the Watauga and Holston Rivers in northeast Tennessee, but their time together is repeatedly interrupted by the local toughs, whose connections to an area constable and two “respectable” businessmen threaten Sam’s life and force Tucker to fall back on skills he learned in Laos during the Vietnam war.

This study analyzes contemporary American sports poetry, demonstrating that poems about sports express common attitudes and showing what the respective sports' poems say about American culture of the last fifty years. While placing particular emphasis on the hero in American sports poetry, the study proves that a considerable body of sports poetry exists in American culture and that it is worthy of serious analysis. The study opens with the analysis done so far on sports poetry, articulates methods of approach, and gives a brief history of sports poetry, beginning with victory chants around the tribal campfire. From Thayer's "Casey at the Bat" to Gibb's "Listening to the Ballgame," the body of the work is organized thematically by sport: baseball, football, basketball, women's sports, and minor sports such as golf, racquet sports, and boxing. The study concludes with a chapter on poems about fans and spectators and a summary of the study's arguments. Each section gives detailed readings of many poems.

This Civil War history focuses on Prince William County, Virginia, where two of the war's greatest engagements were fought, thirteen months apart. The First and Second Battles of Manassas are described in profound detail but so are the lives of resident families as a cloud of despair hangs over their lands. The book captures the experiences of leaders and privates, the good and the bad, while revealing horrific accounts of civilian victims, largely undisclosed until the writing of this book.
