RELIEF AND RECOVERY IN POST CIVIL WAR SOUTH CAROLINA
A Death by Inches
 Hope, W. Martin
1997 0-7734-8437-X 356 pages
In this study of relief and recovery efforts in South Carolina after the Civil War, the emphasis is on people, and in particular on those people who seem to be excluded from, or barely mentioned in, the conventional studies of the era. By delving deep into the primary source material of the period, this study allows readers to discover an expanded past, one that for the most part has remained as 'hidden history.'

THE ACHIVEMENTS OF DONALD J. TRUMP (hard cover)
 Vasillopulos, Christopher
2024 1-4955-1299-1 304 pages
Discussion on the Trump Phenomenon. Trump and his supporters have been called sexist, racist, homophobic, xenophobic, isolationist, and many other epithets of the Woke Culture. He and his supporters have been accused of being Neo-Nazis, or Quasi-Nazis by reasonably well educated and intelligent politicians, members of the Media, and a majority of academics. Of course, Trump has brought much of this onslaught upon himself with his often vulgar, bombastic, and exaggerated speech. His policies, however, have been prudent, measured, and effective. This book tries to account for this seeming discrepancy, as well as, the fierce loyalty and hatred he has provoked.
