Trans-Allegheny Pioneers is, without a doubt, one of the most celebrated accounts of life on the Virginia frontier ever written. The author's focal point is the region of the New River-Kanawha in present-day Montgomery and Pulaski counties, Virginia.

The Fathers is the powerful novel by the poet and critic recognized as one of the great men of letters of our time, Alan Tate. Old Major Buchan of Pleasant Hill, Fairfax County, Virginia, lived by a gentlemen’s agreement to ignore what was base or rude, to live a life which was gentle and comfortable because it was formal. Into this life George Posey came dashing, as Henry Steele Commager observed, “to defy Major Buchan, marry Susan, betray Charles and Semmes, dazzle young Lacy, challenge and destroy the old order of things.” “Great novel of the broken South.”—George Steiner in The New Yorker “A psychological horror story...concerned with life rather than death, with significance rather than with futility.”—Henry Steele Commager “The story displays so much imagination and such a profound reflection upon life that it cannot be neglected by anyone interested in contemporary literature.”—Edwin Muir “A masterpiece of formal beauty...deserves to be recognized as one of the most outstanding novels of our time.”—Janet Adam-Smith in The New Statesmen “It is one of the most remarkable novels of our time...[It] is in fact the novel GONE WITH THE WIND ought to have been.”—Arthur Mizener

A witty and inherently feminist novel about passion and marriage, based on a true story of an unstoppable woman ahead of her time in Victorian London. In 1887, Isabel Bilton is the eldest of three daughters of a middle-class military family, growing up in a small garrison town. By 1891 she is the Countess of Clancarty, dubbed "the peasant countess" by the press, and a member of the Irish aristocracy. Becoming Belle is the story of the four years in between, of Belle's rapid ascent and the people that tried to tear her down. With only her talent, charm, and determination, Isabel moves to London alone at age nineteen, changes her name to Belle, and takes the city by storm, facing unthinkable hardships as she rises to fame. A true bohemian and the star of a dancing double act she performs with her sister, she reigns over The Empire Theatre and The Corinthian Club, where only select society entertains. It is there she falls passionately in love with William, Viscount Dunlo, a young aristocrat. For Belle, her marriage to William is a dream come true, but his ruthless father makes clear he'll stop at nothing to keep her in her place. Reimagined by a novelist at the height of her powers, Belle is an unforgettable woman. Set against an absorbing portrait of Victorian London, hers is a timeless rags-to-riches story a la Becky Sharpe.

The absence of fatherhood in America and worldwide is a growing concern because it is affecting our society in so many negative ways. Our children are our greatest resource but too many of them are being neglected and left alone to fend for themselves. Too many fathers have walked away from the most precious gift they will ever have, their children. Until more fathers go back and claim their seed and properly nurture their seed, the value of the next generation will decline. This book is a wake-up call. It is sounding an alarm to those God have given an awesome charge to; train up a child in the way they should go, Proverbs 22:6.
