Although a great deal has been written concerning every important aspect of the Civil War itself, with a few notable exceptions little attention has been given to the personal lives of the 961 generals who commanded the Union and Confederate armies. This book offers a wealth of comparative biographical data on these men in a convenient form that will serve the purposes of both academic researchers and Civil War buffs.

The Pilots

During World War II, James Spencer was a cocky, risk-addicted young pilot who lived with death every day-but considered it a privilege to fly the B-24s that helped win the war in the Pacific. The extraordinary result is The Pilots, a novel-in-stories about young flyers locked in almost-daily aerial combat, living their off-hours as if they were their last-and the women who endure the pain of attachment to men whose life expectancies may be measured in weeks and days.  Alive with the horrors of war and the sheer exhilaration of those who live, breathe and dream of flying, The Pilots introduces us to bomber pilot Blake Hurlingame and his boyhood friend, fighter ace Steve Larkin, who is captured by a strange, savage tribe that may trade him to the Japanese-or use him as food; Doc, whose concern for his men is unhinging his sanity; Courtney, the arrogant, reckless captain with inner demons behind his movie-star good looks; and heartbreaking Addie-who will leave her mark on them all...

To pioneers of the late nineteenth century, timber was as good as gold, and one of the biggest logging “shows” in the Pacific Northwest began when Alex Polson came onto the scene in the 1900s. Polson Brothers Logging Company eventually became part of ITT Rayonier, a company that rostered a variety of steam-powered logging equipment. This is the story of Rayonier’s logging-railroading operations, featuring numerous photos and a complete steam and diesel locomotive roster.This 164-page hardbound book details steam at its height, when trains ran daily out of Railroad Camp near Hoquiam, Washington, and through the treacherous Clallam Branch, near the Strait of Juan de Fuca. The Rayonier logging story is told in text, train crew stories that “tell it like it was,” and 233 action and roster shots of men and equipment.

The Matrix of Destiny: God's Seven Progressive Revelations: A Practical Guide for Victorious and Abundant Living

What Powerful Forces really govern your life and the Destiny of Mankind? In this groundbreaking work, author James E. Spencer, Jr. decodes an astonishing "spiritual technology" hidden in the Hebrew and Christian Bible. The Matrix of Destiny identifies a universal message coded within the Hebrew and Christian scriptures that tracks the progressive evolution of humanity from fearful survival oriented beings beholden to the manipulations of dark spiritual forces, to confident, God-empowered, Holy Spirit-led beings who recognize their most important acts are what they do in the service of others. The Matrix of Destiny holds the key to our system of Reality, and provides satisfying answers for many seekers of truth and meaning. The eye-opening result is the unveiling of Seven Progressive Revelations, which collectively define a powerful framework for understanding oneself, ones culture, ones-purpose and the archetypal influences, which motivates ones choices. It is a valuable and important work, with an irresistible message and a unique format. The Matrix of Destiny offers the reader an utterly compelling and singular Worldview which despite its roots in Judaism and Christianity, transcends, religion, race, culture, politics, sex and money. Enlightening, provocative, and right to the point, The Matrix of Destiny reveals an extraordinary tool for understanding and thriving in Reality as we know it.
