Book excerpt: Surrounded by rednecks, misfits, and counterculture burnouts, John Gibson ¬the reluctant heir of an alcoholic squirrel-sculpting grandmother ¬- and Sarah McKay - a commune-reared "hippie-by-association" - search for self and community in 1989 rural Mendocino County, California. The dying logging industry is colliding with the economic rise of wineries, tourism, and the unregulated marijuana trade in The Emerald Triangle. Boonville is the hilarious, darkly comic tale of how John and Sarah try to reconcile the facts of heredity, sexuality, personal expression, love, death, the possibility of an existence without God, their cultural wars, and what happens when they choose to make art from their lives.
Download or read book Guerrilla Warfare in Civil War Missouri Volume II 1863 written by Bruce Nichols and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2013-06-07 with total page 1002 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a thorough study of all known guerrilla operations in Civil War Missouri during 1863, the middle year of the war. This work explores the tactics with which each side attempted to gain advantage, with regional differences as influenced by the personalities of local commanders. An enormous variety of sources--military and government records, private accounts, county and other local histories, period and later newspapers, and secondary sources published after the war--are used to identify which Southern partisan leaders and groups operated in which areas of Missouri, and to describe how they operated and how their kinds of warfare evolved. The actions of Southern guerrilla forces and Confederate behind-enemy-lines recruiters are presented chronologically by region so that readers may see the relationship of seemingly isolated events to other events over a period of time in a given area. The counter-actions of an array of different types of Union troops are also covered to show how differences in training, leadership, and experiences affected behaviors and actions in the field.

Download or read book Escape from Boonville written by Bob Hughes and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2010-05-29 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Frank James was born in 1843 and raised in Clay County, Missouri. Don Hughes was born in 1943 and raised in Clay County, Missouri. Jesse James was born in 1847 and raised in Clay County, Missouri. Bob Hughes was born in 1947 and raised in Clay County, Missouri. Both sets of brothers had similar religious upbringings and both were destined to become fugitives and live lives on the run from the law. Coincidence? Were the James boys reincarnated or was it just some kind of weird karma? This book will compare some of the parallels and let the reader decide. It all started when a very young Bob Hughes was incarcerated for a crime he didn't commit. Despite the fact that the Boonville reformatory had been in existence for over 100 years and no one had ever pulled a successful escape, Don Hughes decided he would break his innocent brother out of the worst reformatory west of the Mississippi. And so it began.

Download or read book Desperadoes of the Ozarks written by Larry Wood and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2011-09-29 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The award-winning author of The Two Civil War Battles of Newtonia “mine[s] the rich vein of bad men—and succeeds because of solid research.” —Fred Pfitser, editor, Ozarks Mountaineer This collection of events carries readers through an era of bootlegging, highway robbery, and vigilante courts. From the cow town of Baxter Springs, Kansas, to the booming mining camp of Granby, Missouri, the Ozarks were a magnet for lawlessness. Though some stories contain gory details, the author’s intention in narrating these events is not to pay tribute to the likes of the Tri-State Terror, Bloody Britton, or the Missouri Kid. Instead Larry Wood aspires to come to terms with the region’s violent past, learn from it, and move forward. Among tales of desperate characters and brutal murders is a strengthening of law and order. As the area’s criminals wreak havoc, the Ozarks become the staging area for the last public hanging in the United States and the FBI’s first killing of a criminal. Each chapter is filled with the grisly excitement of flying bullets and mob lynchings as vengeance is dealt by the betrayed, but the book also captures the changes made to protect law-abiding citizens. “Full of damnable acts, but they make for some darn interesting reading.” —HistoryNet
