Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the War Between the States, both sides weaponized men turning them into killing machines. Some men were transformed beyond anything ever before imagined and loosed on each other and the world at large. The end of the war was not the end of these weapons or their desire to kill. The government first denied their existence and then systematically began to exterminate their creation. They were not always successful. Nate Carson walked away from Appomattox in April of 1865. Walking away from his memories of the war was not as easy as that, especially when his nightmares took on flesh and blood and showed up at his front door. It's a fight for his life all over again. Cowboys, Indians, and Werewolves...oh my!

Download or read book Colonial Wrought Iron written by Don Plummer and published by Skipjack Press, Inc.. This book was released on 1999 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colonial Wrought Iron is a photographic survey of early wrought iron work in America with 506 photographs from the Sorber Collection. The colonial period in America was centered around the blacksmith who was the maker and creator of these items. The informational text explains the characteristics and the conditions of the period in which the iron was forged. Colonial Wrought Iron is an invaluable resource tool for the blacksmith involved making reproduction hardware and related items, as well as an inspiration for merging form and function. In this book you will find the commonplace and the ornate but they all reflect the hand of fine craftsmanship. The work displayed in Colonial Wrought Iron is from the collection of Jim Sorber. Jim, now in his eighties, has been an avid collector for 70 years. This collection is a result of a life steeped in an enduring appreciation for the skills of his ancestors. Even as a child he was interested in their hand tools and the wonderful things they made. That interest soon grew into a passion. A unique aspect of Jims collection is that it reflects a certain ethnic influence. Much of his collecting has been done near his home in the counties of Berks, Chester, Lancaster, Lebanon, Lehigh, Montgomery and Schuylkill. This area has been settled by German immigrants since the mid-to-late 17th century. Jims collection, many pieces of which are signed and dated, reflects an iron chronicle of the Pennsylvania Dutch migration westward from the Philadelphia area.
