Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Designed by Atlanta architect A. Thomas Bradbury and opened in 1968, the mansion has been home to eight first families and houses a distinguished collection of American art and antiques. Often called “the people’s house,” the mansion is always on display, always serving the public. Memories of the Mansion tells the story of the Georgia Governor’s Mansion—what preceded it and how it came to be as well as the stories of the people who have lived and worked here since its opening in 1968. The authors worked closely with the former first families (Maddox, Carter, Busbee, Harris, Miller, Barnes, Perdue, and Deal) to capture behind-the-scenes anecdotes of what life was like in the state’s most public house. This richly illustrated book not only documents this extraordinary place and the people who have lived and worked here, but it will also help ensure the preservation of this historic resource so that it may continue to serve the state and its people.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sum of All Our Anger is a gripping story that takes the reader down the rabbit hole of the Second American Civil War in 2061. Newly elected President Devin Cyrus is determined to sweep away the last remnants of the Old Way in America to pave the way for a Socialist utopia under his New Way policy. He prepares to forge ahead at all costs. New Way supporter and 1619 Brigade founder DeShawn King, filled with anger, is more than eager to exact revenge for generations of oppression. Meanwhile, followers of the Old Way are determined to keep a remnant of the Old Union intact and let the New Way states forge ahead without them. The problem is that it means secession. Their de facto leader, Oklahoma Governor Mary Whitfield, rallies like-minded states and Americans to oppose the New Way and preserve the Old Way at all costs. Caught in the middle, politically moderate Bishop Jackson King, father to DeShawn, gets called up to deploy in the Illinois National Guard. Our Union and way of life hang in the balance as the two opposing world views collide head-on in a final showdown. For General Fiction, Political Thrillers, Military, and Dystopian fans, The SUM of ALL OUR ANGER is a must-read. Buy your copy now!
