Download or read book The Double Edged Sword written by Charles D. Summers and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2002-07-24 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bobbie Ann Mason created a small town in Kentucky to fill with characters and plots. Lynch's Corner provides the same format for Mr. Summers. The Double-Edged Sword: Lynch's Corner in Depression and War is the fourth volume in the Lynch's Corner Series. These short stories are set during the harrowing days of the Great Depression and the challenging days of World War II, specifically, the world of the Office of Strategic Services. Readers will attend a baseball game in "Play Ball," wonder at the changes wrought by the Flood of 1937 in "Black Sunday," cheer for a new teacher in a backwater town in "Sinking Creek," try to unravel the mystery in the title short story, and accompany the OSS in spy stories such as "Burglary," "Fingers," "The Piano Player," and "Wine Cellar." The fifteen stories give a different perspective on the Thirties and Forties in a small southern town and on the spyscape of Europe. Come meet Mark Lynch, Fingers Malone, Lydia Carr, Temple McKenzie, Ludlow Carr and a cast of characters sure to engage your attention.
Download or read book Backward Glances written by Charles Summers and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-02-17 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Backward Glances is volume six in the Lynch’s Corner Series. These short stories veer from the preceding five in that they focus on protagonists other than the Lynch-Carr family though there are a few lurking in the list of stories. Previous readers will find “The Fall of Jessup” an interesting conclusion to that flawed person. Others will delight in stories dealing with nuns in the Appalachians, archaeology in Egypt, young lovers groping for the rite of passage, University of Kentucky sports, illegal moonshine, and desperate people facing impossible situations. Some recurring characters visit once more, but for the most part, newer folks emerge and join the LC series. Enjoy.

October Leaves is about the moods of life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Filson Club History Quarterly, first published in 1926, has long enjoyed a reputation as one of the nation's finest regional historical journals. Over the years it has published excellent essays on virtually every aspect of Kentucky history. Gathered together here for the first time are twenty-eight selections, chosen from the first fifty years of the journal's publication.

Included among the essayists are Thomas D. Clark, J. Winston Coleman, Jr., Robert E. McDowell, Lowell Harrison, Hambleton Tapp, Julia Neal, Allan M. Trout, and many other well-known authorities on Kentucky history. The editors have arranged these essays into five chronological periods, which include the pioneer era, the antebellum years, the Civil War, the late nineteenth century, and the twentieth century. They have carefully chosen essays that provide a topical diversity within each category. Included in this volume are two brief introductory essays sketching the history of The Filson Club and The Filson Club History Quarterly.
