Captain Sanford C. Kellogg, U.S.A., saw firsthand the sweeping drama and utter devastation of the Civil War in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. In his now classic 1903 war study, "The Shenandoah Valley and Virginia, 1861 to 1865," Kellogg presents the movements of all major Confederate and Union forces in the Valley from the outset of the Civil War through to its conclusion four years later.
Kellogg meticulously researched his subject and presented it in a scholarly format designed to aid the historian, researcher or casual reader. While he did not layer his account with the personal anecdotes that one might find in a memoir, he did sprinkle throughout the narrative some of his own observations about the conditions and battles that he faced in the Valley. 
For a straightforward and no-nonsense presentation of the Civil War in the Shenandoah Valley, Kellogg's book has no equal and remains to this day both scholastically and historically significant.

Although modest in size and scope, Edward Aull's "Early History of Staunton and Beverley Manor in Augusta County, Virginia" is one of the most entertaining and meticulously researched chronicles of this important and historic region of the Old Dominion. Aull acquaints us with the movers and shakers (and saints and sinners) that helped shape this integral part of the New World, taking us from the region's rough-hewn days as a forward outpost on the American frontier to the early nineteenth century and Staunton's growth into a prosperous and important town

Eight Action-Packed Novelettes This second volume of The Pulp Western Anthology focuses on the novelette—that once popular form of fiction that was too long to be a short story and not long enough to be a novel. The eight novelettes in this volume comprise more than 100,000 words of fast-shooting, hard-riding action, and even a little romance. Not Seen in Decades As was the case with volume one of The Pulp Western Anthology, none of the stories in volume two can be found lurking in the Internet slush pile of public domain works. We have intentionally sought stories that have been hidden from public view since their initial publication, and have resurrected them in the hopes that you, the reader, will find them as entertaining as we do.We have set them in a clean, new typeface and presented them with the artwork that originally accompanied their stories. Classic Pulp Western Literature This edition features the work of some of pulp western fiction's top names: William F. Bragg, H.C. Wire, Ray Humphreys, William A. Todd, Wayne D. Overholser, Walter Tompkins and William Schuyler. The stories are drawn from a series of the most popular Western magazines from the years 1928, 1935, 1938, 1943 and 1949. So roll a quirly, strap on your smoke-pole, and swing into the saddle for a literary romp that will take you from roaring cowtowns and bullet-riddled saloons to the Civil War-torn westernmost reaches of America, courtesy of The Pulp Western Anthology: Volume 2.

Blazing Western Action!
Here—for the first time since they were initially published in the Golden Age of Pulp Western Fiction—are three novels and five short stories by the likes of R.S. Lerch, H.C. Early, Van Cort and others, all writing at the top of their creative games to satisfy what was an unquenchable market for western heroes and outlaws. 
This third volume in The Pulp Western Anthology series has set these tales in a clean, new typeface and presented them with the artwork that originally accompanied them.
Hot Lead for Gleaming Rails is a well-crafted tale of empire building, crooked politics and blazing guns. It was written by Van Cort—a pseudonym of Wyatt Rainey Blassingame (1909-1985), one of the genre’s most prolific and authentic writers. This novel has not seen the light of day since it was originally published in Street and Smith’s Western Story Magazine on August 7, 1937, and has not lost any of its ability to entertain.
The Oath of Bill Bonney is a romanticized novel of Billy the Kid, by H.C. Early. Mr. Early’s novel, which smoothly marries known fact and rich imagination, was a late entry in the life of Famous Western magazine (October 1957). All the familiar real-life characters are here—John Tunstall, Alexander McSween, Charlie Bowdre, Bob Olinger, Pat Garrett, Gov. Lew Wallace—working as a backdrop to the violent life of Billy the Kid.
The Gun-Devils by Roger Sherman Lerch (1890-1953) is a tale of rustling and deceit. It was published in the August 1949 edition of Complete Western Book Magazine. And since this novel is just a tad bit shorter than the other novels in the book, we have provided five short stories by Howard E. Morgan, George Cory Franklin, G. Vander Merwe, Gurthrie Brown and Hugh Grinstead.Journey Into Yesteryear
So swing into the saddle for a literary romp that will take you from war-torn Lincoln County to the sweeping plains where an advancing railroad threatens to build fortunes and create graveyards!
