Examines one of the most notorious scandals of the Civil War-the court-martial of Portsmouth, New Hampshire, native and Civil War general Fitz John Porter (1822-1901). 
As a promising general, Porter demonstrated courage, bravery, and impressive strategic skills, yet he made a battlefield decision that changed his life and has been a subject of controversy ever since. In essays from curators Kimberly Alexander and Richard Schubart and from early American historian Dane A. Morrison, the book follows Porter's military career, spectacular victory at Malvern Hill, stunning defeat at Second Manassas, politically charged court-martial, and sixteen-year struggle to restore his name.

Beautifully illustrated with thirty duotone photographs by Brian Smestad, and featuring an introduction by Strawbery Banke Museum president Lawrence Yerdon, Hero or Coward will appeal to readers interested in the Civil War and New Hampshire history, as well as the general public, as it seeks to answer the question of how a man who seemed destined for greatness ended up in a struggle to restore his reputation after humiliating public defeat.

The White Mountains, nestled serenely in the middle of New Hampshire, have been inspiring visitors for hundreds of years. A favorite subject of painters from the nineteenth century and an often revisited landmark for today’s artists, the majestic beauty of the landscape is captured within the pages of Visions in Granite. This carefully selected collection of paintings takes readers on a tour through the historical and contemporary representations of the White Mountains, showcasing work by some of the most prominent landscape artists of the past two centuries. By pairing the paintings of yesterday and today, Visions in Granite reveals the influence that nineteenth-century painters have had on their contemporary counterparts. While some of today’s artists chose to continue a dialogue that began with their predecessors, others have pushed their work into new territory by incorporating the ideas of modernism and abstraction. Visions in Granite is a tribute to a region that has arrested the imagination of many and to the artists who have captured that beauty for others to enjoy.

Enterprising business owners will find a wealth of useful advice in If You Want to Earn a Capital Gain Someday: Six Things You Can Do Right Now (2015), a new book from the partners of Bigelow LLC (Pete Worrell, Dave Linton, and Rob MacLeod) that has just been published by Blue Tree. This practical, hands-on book is filled with nuggets of information-and recommendations-from veterans of the private transaction market that any private business owner will be able to put to immediate use. Each chapter concludes with a compilation of thoughtful, focusing questions designed to inspire interested Entrepreneur Owner-Managers (EOMs) to discover their own answers. This work is based on established foundational theory in finance, economics, and positive psychology, coupled with the authors' years of experience working exclusively with hundreds of seasoned, successful EOMs. It takes an informed, battle-tested look at how the best EOMs shape their enterprises to continue beyond their personal ownership, and then, based on the tracks they've left, builds road maps that other future-thinking EOMs can follow. Empathizing with just how challenging it is to be an EOM, the book addresses some power shifts occurring in the private transaction market that allow private business owners to become infinitely more proactive in taking steps to assure the longevity of their businesses through planned management transition and, if desired, ownership transition.
