Tales of the Heptameron
Catalog #: SKU4116
It is from the authentic text furnished by M. Le Roux de Lincy that the present translation has been made, without the slightest suppression or abridgment. The work moreover contains all the more valuable notes to be found in the best French editions of the Heptameron, as well as numerous others from original sources, and includes a résumé of the various suggestions made by MM. Félix Frank, Le Roux de Lincy, Paul Lacroix, and A. de Montaiglon, towards the identification of the narrators of the stories, and the principal actors in them, with well-known personages of the time. An Essay on the Heptameron from the pen of Mr. George Saintsbury, M.A., and a Life of Queen Margaret, are also given, as well as the quaint Prefaces of the earlier French versions; and a complete bibliographical summary of the various editions which have issued from the press.

Pilgrimage to Nejd
Catalog #: SKU3858
It is strange how gloomy thoughts vanish as one sets foot in Asia. Only yesterday we were still tossing on the sea of European thought, with its political anxieties, its social miseries and its restless aspirations, the heritage of the unquiet race of Japhet-and now we seem to have ridden into still water, where we can rest and forget and be thankful.

Dio's Rome
Catalog #: SKU3835
This is probably one of the most intricate and exhaustive histories written of Rome, particularly the B.C. years of Rome. The author, a Roman senator, wrote this history around 216 A.D. Interestingly, he like Josephus, mentions nothing of a Jesus or a threat of the Christians against Rome. However, there is an interesting expansion of history of the Jewish revolt against Rome, including Jewish cannibalism, from the Roman point of view.

Webster's Seventh of March Speech and the Secession Movement
Catalog #: SKU3779
It is very curious that much of the history of the United States in the Forties and Fifties of the last century has vanished from the general memory.

American Indian as Secessionist, The
Catalog #: SKU3711
This book has been purposely given a sub-title, in order that the peculiar position of the Indian, in 1861, may be brought out in strong relief. He was enough inside the American Union to have something to say about secession and enough outside of it to be approached diplomatically. It is well to note, indeed, that Albert Pike negotiated the several Indian treaties that bound the Indian nations in an alliance with the seceded states, under the authority of the Confederate State Department

Loss of the S. S. Titanic
Catalog #: SKU3670
No man can go dawn into the valley of the shadow of death and stand face to face with the final certainty, and not come back with an awed soul and a chastened spirit. If any one could there would be something in him shocking and repellent to normal human nature. And therefore, the unconscious undertone of solemnity which one feels all through Mr. Beesley's simple narrative gives it a peculiar fitness and impressiveness, and adds to its value as an exact chronicle a certain austere charm.

On April 23, 1912, the Lord Chancellor appointed a wreck commissioner under the merchant shipping acts, and on April 26 the home secretary nominated five assessors. On April 30 the board of trade requested that a formal investigation of the circumstances attending the loss of the steamship Titanic should be held, and the court accordingly commenced to sit on May 2. Since that date there have been 37 public sittings, at which 97 witnesses have been examined, while a large number of documents, charts, and plans have been produced.

Secret History of the English Occupation of Egypt
Catalog #: SKU3649
I desire to place on record in a succinct and tangible form the events which have come within my knowledge relating to the origin of the English occupation of Egypt-not necessarily for publication now, but as an available document for the history of our times. At one moment I played in these events a somewhat prominent part, and for nearly twenty years I have been a close and interested spectator of the drama which was being acted at Cairo.

Washington's Prophecy : Facts Concerning the Rebellion
Catalog #: SKU3584
Being s student of history, and in particular to those relating to Texas and the southern states, I have to admit I'd never heard George Washington's views being taken as prophetic regarding the legal right of the South to secede and form a more perfect union. A very interesting read and collection of facts surrounding the disputes between the Northern hypocrite Republicans and the Southern factions wanting a preservation of the Constitutional rights of the states.

Confederate States of America in Prophecy
Catalog #: SKU3580
Most patriot researchers and historians have read and studied the prophecies that concern the United States, but few realize that similar prophecies were written about the Confederate States of America. These are good to read and analyze because they set Christian prophecies to a lower value of relevance, since many were proven false.

A History of the Republican Party, or What the Hell Happened?
Catalog #: SKU3550
Early in February, 1900, the writer delivered an address before the Stamina Republican League of Cincinnati on "The Origin and Rise of the Republican Party." The interest in the subject shown by the audience and the many words of approbation led to a deeper consideration of the history of the Party, and the address was repeated on a more elaborate plan before many other organizations in Cincinnati and vicinity.
