South Pacific Marine. Paul Nickerson. 2010, 5½x8½, paper, 268 pp. After the break-up of the Raider Regiments in 1944, the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Marine Corps Divisions were in dire need of non-commissioned officers. Ex-Raiders, such as Gunnery Sergeant Rawlins, were used in these spots as replacements. Gunnery Sgt. Rawlins and his Raider squad were sent to the Fifth Marine Division, Twenty-seventh Regiment, Camp Pendleton, California. Here they began training for the bloody battle of Iwo Jima, where over twenty thousand Japanese Imperial troops waited-ready and willing to die for their emperor. Follow Rawlins and his team through grueling training at Camp Tarawa, Hawaii; thirty-four days of living hell at the foot of Mt. Suibachi-the bloodiest battle in Marine Corps history; living off the land while marooned on an island near Japan; dealing with civilian life after the war; and their return to duty when the Korean War breaks out. This novel, based on historical fact, follows Gunnery Sgt. Rawlins and his squad from the war against imperial Japanese forces through the Korean War.

Annie Ricketson’s Journal: The Remarkable Voyage of the Only Woman Aboard a Whaling Ship with Her Sea Captain Husband and Crew, 1871-1874. Laura Ricketson Doherty. 2010, 5½x8½, paper, 96 pp. The incredible adventure of Annie Ricketson’s years at sea, as told so simply in her journal, is impressive even by today’s standards. Very few women in the 1870s would have chosen to do what Annie did. The idea of leaving family and friends for nearly three and one half years to sail to areas of the world which were not even listed on a map must have been daunting, but to do this as the only woman on a ship where some of the crew may have resented a woman onboard, and others may not have had the highest character references, was absolutely courageous. Annie sailed on the A. R. Tucker with her husband, Captain Daniel Ricketson, to many of the world’s whaling grounds. Her journey took her from her home port of New Bedford, Massachusetts, down the Atlantic around the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa, and across the Indian Ocean to the Pacific off the coast of Australia. Her journal entries not only tell of tragedy and death, of dangers and bad weather but also of friendly natives and sightseeing, shopping and fashion concerns. They are an invaluable record of life onboard a whaling ship-the excitement of the hunt, a powerful storm, even an earthquake-and the boredom of day after day when nothing happened. Annie’s love for her husband and adventure, her sense of humor and her amazing ability to adapt is obvious from the very beginning of her fantastic story. 0788450484 D5048 - $17.00

The Beginnings of Quakerism. William C. Braithwaite. (1912, 1999), 2009, 5½x8½, paper, indices, 610 pp. The Quaker religion, properly called the Society of Friends, began in Westmoreland in northwest England in the mid-1600s, when George Fox and several others including William Dewsbury, James Nayler, Francis Howgill and Edward Burrough traced their inspiration and their constructive ideas to direct divine “openings” through which they believed they were being led by God. Because this book covers only up to the end of 1660, it is a very detailed study of the early history of Quakerism. The book explains background influences which led to the formation of the new religion, then shows us the beginning of its growth, in which its members were persecuted and jailed, in England, Europe and America, with some followers paying with their lives. Quakerism did not exclude women, some of whom felt called to the ministry. Some followers showed dramatic fits of trembling (hence the term Quaker) while others manifested their convictions in other ways. William Simpson of Lancaster “went three years naked and in sackcloth in the days of Oliver and his Parliament, as a sign to them and to the priests showing how God would strip them of their power…” Many of the followers called themselves “seekers” or “publishers of the truth.” The book also includes four excellent maps of parts of Britain which cradled this religion. While we have all heard about the Quaker religion, there are few people whose understanding would not be greatly broadened by this informative work. 0788409557 B0955 - $41.00

Thirty-Six Points - Samuel M. Kier. In the Korean War, the typical young American soldier was not motivated by a desire to save the world from communism; his objective was to earn the thirty-six rotation points that would allow him to return home. Thirty-Six Points blends military history and character-driven fiction, as experienced by the novel's four principal characters: a pre-med student from Stanford University, a career soldier from Detroit, a corporal from a Greek battalion fighting alongside the Americans, and a Chinese schoolteacher who was coerced to fight in the Chinese Army alongside the North Koreans. The novel begins in 1950, before the United States became actively involved in the war. It ends with the aftermath of the war, the survivors having returned to their homes. In the epilogue, one of them revisits the basic training base at Fort Ord years later, and compares the Korean and Vietnam eras. Author Samuel Martin Kier, like the protagonist Ben Stewart, was a Stanford student when he was drafted into the army. He trained at Fort Ord and was assigned to the Fifth Infantry Regiment. One of his assignments during his period of service with the unit was to update the regimental history, using information from command reports, battalion journals and after-action reports. Thirty-six Points is a novel, but it also tells the story of the Fifth Regimental Combat Team from November 1952 to July 1953, as it moved between the Punchbowl in eastern Korea and the Chorwan Valley in the central part of the country.

Davidson County, Tennessee, County Court Minutes, Volume 3, 1799-1803 - Carol Wells. This third volume of county court minutes provides a glimpse into the early years of the fledgling state. "Constant creation of new roads and ferries reveal the influx of new settlers to middle Tennessee. Unfamiliar names appeared in the minutes as the justices of the peace dealt with disputes, orphans, poverty, estates, wills, sales, apprentices, licenses, and the multiplicity of other matters that fell to their jurisdiction." This work condenses the often flowery language of the original minutes to a brief accounting of the subject brought before the court and the people involved. Many citizens who would not appear in other records may have had business with the court, and would therefore be listed in the court's minutes. The index lists surnames, places and organizations mentioned in the text. (1991), 2010, 5½x8½, paper, index, 204 pp. W0538 ISBN: 1556135386

Ohio And Her Western Reserve, With a Story of Three States Leading to the Latter, from Connecticut, by Way of Wyoming, Its Indian Wars and Massacre. Alfred Mathews. (1902), 2005, paper, index, 374 pp. This work chronicles Connecticut’s expansion westward, and the role Connecticut played in the region we now call Ohio, by first looking at Puritanism as the springboard to Connecticut’s expansion. It includes an account of the Battle and Massacre of Wyoming (1778) and the flight through “The Shades of Death.” The history of the Western Reserve is given with reference to the contributions to public service the Reserve made in the areas of literature, culture, statesmanship and education. Ohio, as a state, is traced up until the end of the 19^th century. Some of the topics discussed include: the “Pennamite Wars,” antislavery as a logical outcome of Puritanism, and, Ohio and “the Great Ordinance” of 1787. The author also examines Ohio’s pivotal role in the Civil War. The main text is supplemented with illustrations, and includes pictures of six presidents from Ohio. There are two maps: one of lands claimed by Connecticut in Pennsylvania and Ohio, and the other depicting the Western Reserve. M1869 - $33.00

Story of the Huguenots: A Sixteenth Century Narrative Wherein The French, Spaniards and Indians Were The Actors. F. A. Mann. (1912, 2002), 2009, 5½x8½, paper, index, 204 pp. “It will be seen by the historical facts given in this Story of the Huguenots that they were the first martyrs to civil and religious liberty on the North American Continent; arriving as they did nearly half a century before the landing of the Puritans at Plymouth. Their trials, sufferings, and the tragic deaths of many of them, while not resulting in establishing a permanent settlement, sanctified the land to liberty, although more than two hundred years elapsed before a final victory was achieved for human freedom and the greatest republic on earth was established. Another fact is shown by history: The Huguenots driven to America by intolerable oppression, from first to last, have filed our chronicles with gallant and patriotic deeds and the names of their descendants stand high on our rolls of honor, in every walk of life.” In1562, inspired by Cortez, Pizarro, Balboa, De Leon and De Soto, Admiral Coligny of France sent two vessels with colonists, under Jean Ribault and Rene Laudonniere, in search of a refuge for French Huguenots, but a settlement was not established in Florida until 1564. Discussions include La Caroline, interactions with native inhabitants, the struggle for power between France and Spain, slaughters at Matanzas, D’Erlach, Chevalier D’Ottigny, Ostinola and his people, Huguenot explorations, and much, much more… This pleasantly penned volume, the author’s revised edition of his 1898 work, is enhanced with a new fullname index. 0788421735 M2173 - $22.50

The First Traders On Wall Street: The Wiechquaeskeck Indians of Southwestern Connecticut in the Seventeenth Century. John Alexander Buckland. (2002), 2009, 5½x8½, paper, 302 pp. This book honors an Indian Nation that has been long forgotten. It is the Wiechquaeskeck of the Hudson River estuary area. They were a numerous, strong and healthy people when they first gazed at the white sails of European ships in Long Island Sound in the 16^th century. Their story is distinct and unique, although they were part of the great Algonquian Woodland peoples, and belonged to the large group of Lenape, or Delaware, Indians in the New Jersey and New York area. From 17^th century documents, we know many of their names, and much about their lives. They sank from a thriving tribe, to scattered groups, to obscurity by the 19^th century. The main causes of their downfall were virulent diseases from Europe, but they also had bloody fights with the Dutch of New Netherland. Their final blow was inflicted by rum, given to them by land-hungry English merchants. “The subject is very well researched, and I especially like the fact that the bulk of your information comes from primary sources…You give me a feeling for just how great the changes were in the first 50 years after contact, and how much was lost in that short period of time.” “An excellent discussion of the tribes in the area…I particularly like the biographies (which) personalize history and makes one realize that these were flesh-and-blood folks.” “The archeological segment is good, solid stuff.” —Faith Damon Davison, Archivist, The Mohegan Tribe, Uncasville, CT Their story is told using maps, illustrations, timelines, documents and archeological studies, in addition to scholarly essays on cultural clashes, traditional activities, European impressions, and much more. The story of the Wiechquaeskeck mirrors the story of the decline of many native cultures in North America. This book will be highly prized by students of Native America. 0788420283 B2028 - $28.00

Abstract of Early Kentucky Wills and Inventories, Copied from Original and Recorded Wills and Inventories. J. Estelle Stewart King. (1933), 2003, 5½x8½, paper, index, 304 pp. This no frills abstraction of Kentucky Wills and inventories contains only hard facts, which the author painstakingly gathered from original documents that cross seven decades and provide hundreds of names for genealogical research. It includes entries from thirty-eight counties, among them the first three formed; Fayette, Lincoln, and Jefferson, and gives details from documents that are affirmed, witnessed and sworn to by surviving relatives or interested parties. The data is arranged in a straightforward, linear format, separated by county, each with its own index, and includes dates between 1780 and 1840. A general thirty-page surname index allows for quick referencing. The will entries give two dates; the first is the date of the instrument and the second is the date of probate. They offer details about land transfers and bequeathals and include the names of appointed executors, guardians, and family members including in-laws. The estate inventory lists reflect numerous personal items as well as household goods, furniture, livestock, and in some instances, slaves. If you are looking for evidence of hereditary ties to Kentucky these compiled notations of legal actions may include the link you seek that will connect you to solid proof of your family’s presence in the state. 0788420038 K2003 - $28.00

(1905, 1994), 2009, 5½x8½, paper, index, 488 pp. Organized by campaign, regiment, and company, these rosters give the names of soldiers and officers and their rank, dates of enlistment and discharge, and occasional additional data such as date of death. "The majority of the rolls printed in this volume…are from [the] Adams Papers in the State Library. In addition there are rolls from the series lettered "War", 10, 11, 12, among the bound volumes of archives in the State Library, a number from the archives of the Connecticut Historical Society, a few from private sources, and several from the New York Historical Society's Collections for 1891. The rolls of several companies which served in 1764 are given in an appendix. While these companies were not, strictly speaking, participants in the French and Indian War, their service was a result of that war. The war ended with the treaty of peace signed in 1763. The campaign of the following year was directed against the Indians who continued to create disturbance after the signing of the treaty of peace by their allies the French. A second appendix contains some information relating to the years 1755-1757 which has come to light since the previous volume was issued….As stated in the previous volume these original rolls were found…in the old Seymour house in Hartford….For convenience of reference all names which appeared in the index to the preceding volume are in the index to this volume, preceded by a star."

Abstracts of the Deaths and Marriages in the Hightstown Gazette, Vol. 2, 1872-1877. Richard S. Hutchinson. (2001), 2009, 8½x11, paper, index, 162 pp. The Hightstown Gazette issued its first edition in April 1861. This weekly paper consisted of only four pages, but from those four pages one can reconstruct the history of the people, their community, and their entire state. One full page was dedicated to "local" news consisting of deaths, marriages, who was visiting whom, who was sick, moving, building a new house or business, etc. News from other states was also carried, especially if it reflected on residents who had migrated elsewhere. News items from neighboring Middlesex, Monmouth and Burlington Counties; including deaths, marriages, and personal items from exchanged papers were often included. In many cases, the information printed here from the exchanged papers is now lost to history as the exchanged issues did not always survive. Present-day Hightstown is centrally located approximately fifteen miles east of Trenton, and equally distant from Philadelphia and New York by fifty miles. This chronological collection of abstracts spans a ten-year period, with the exception of papers from the Civil War years of November 1862 to September 1865, which have never been microfilmed and are presumed missing. Listings include marriages, and list the deaths of all persons, as reported by the paper, who died in New Jersey or those who had "roots" in New Jersey. Marriage listings include (as available) date and place of marriage, name of the reverend performing the ceremony, names of bride and groom, and name of the bride's father or other relative. Death listings include (as available) name of the deceased, date and place of death, cause of death, name of father or other relative, and place of burial. A full-name index adds to the value of this work. H1858 - $24.00

Records are arranged alphabetically by surname and contain (wherever available): full name of the deceased, date of birth, date of death, age at time of death and date of interment, with cemetery section, lot and row numbers. Generally, these records contain little supplemental information but do occasionally note familial relations (such as father, mother, sister, or brother), military service and name changes. In addition to thousands of Cincinnati area residents, Calvary Cemetery is also the resting place of Sisters from three religious convents: the Sisters of St. Ursula Convent and Academy in Section E, the Little Sisters of the Poor in Sections S and I, and the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur, also in Section I. These women are listed together with fellow members of their order, identified by both their birth and religious names. Their surnames, as well as those of allied family members, are included in the "Additional Family Related Surname Index" which closes this volume. A map is included showing the locations of all burial grounds in Hamilton County, followed by plats for each section of Calvary Cemetery. H1433 - $38.50
