Newspaper Clippings from the Colbert County, Alabama Leighton News 1908 - 1914 by Robin Sterling Pdf

"The Leighton News was first established by Fred W. McCormack in 1890 as a small 5x8 sheet. It soon expanded to a traditional size but later suspended publication because the profit margin was too slim. No issues from that time were available for review. After a while, McCormack kept a promise to the people of Leighton and renewed publication of the News in 1894. Each issue was examined column by column with a view for capturing items of a genealogical interest such as reports of births, marriages, deaths, and obituaries. In addition, other clippings were transcribed having to do with the history of Colbert and Lawrence County, as well as the rest of the surrounding Tennessee Valley area."--Publisher's description

White Terror by Allen W. Trelease Pdf

Allen W. Trelease’s White Terror, originally published in 1971, was the first scholarly history of the Ku Klux Klan in the South during Reconstruction. With its research rooted in primary sources, it remains among the most comprehensive treatments of the subject. In addition to the Klan, Trelease discusses other night-riding groups, including the Ghouls, the White Brotherhood, and the Knights of the White Camellia. He treats the entire South state by state, details the close link between the Klan and the Democratic party, and recounts Republican efforts to resist the Klan. Winner of the Charles S. Sydnor Award from the Southern Historical Association

The Vitamin A Story by R.D. Semba Pdf

This book shows how vitamin A deficiency – before the vitamin was known to scientists – affected millions of people throughout history. It is a story of sailors and soldiers, penniless mothers, orphaned infants, and young children left susceptible to blindness and fatal infections. We also glimpse the fortunate ones who, with ample vitamin A-rich food, escaped this elusive stalker. Why were people going blind and dying? To unravel this puzzle, scientists around the world competed over the course of a century. Their persistent efforts led to the identification of vitamin A and its essential role in health. As a primary focus of today’s international public health efforts, vitamin A has saved hundreds of thousands of lives. But, we discover, they could save many more were it not for obstacles erected by political and ideological zealots who lack a historical perspective of the problem. Although exhaustively researched and documented, this book is written for intellectually curious lay readers as well as for specialists. Public health professionals, nutritionists, and historians of science and medicine have much to learn from this book about the cultural and scientific origins of their disciplines. Likewise, readers interested in military and cultural history will learn about the interaction of health, society, science, and politics. The author’s presentation of vitamin A deficiency is likely to become a classic case study of health disparities in the past as well as the present.

The Kennamer Family (Classic Reprint) by John Robert Kennamer Pdf

Excerpt from The Kennamer Family Elbert P. Cantrell, of Gastonia, North Carolina, a great grandson of Noah Kennemur, says: I have been told that Noah Kennemur came from Holland. He used his old Dutch Bible and hymn book. Noah Kennemur had three unmarried daughters, two of whom lived to a good old age. I was at their home near Greenville, South Carolina, in 1878, and they showed me the old Dutch Bible and hymn book used by their father and mother. Larkin H. Kenne mur, a great-grandson of Noah Kennemur, writes that he (noah) came across the waters with a brother, and that they got separated somehow and lost trace of each other. Probably his brother settled in Alabama. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
