Download or read book The Dramatic Story of a Mountain Feud written by John Spears and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-04-28 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1888, as news of the attacks by the Hatfields on the home of Ran'l McCoy on New Year's Eve spread, John Spears, a New York City newspaperman, came to the Tug Valley to report on the violent incidents. He found himself in the home of Ran'l McCoy, and the version of events told to him came by way of Perry Cline, Pike County prosecutor Lee Ferguson, and Ran'l McCoy himself. The writings of John Spears, for better or worse, became the basis of all Hatfield McCoy feud writing to follow. If you want to understand how the feud story came to be, this is the place to start. This version has been carefully annotated to show how it supports and deviates from the factual record.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In ‘Over the Rocky Mountains’ readers are reunited with charismatic hero Will Osten, whose adventures began in the 1869 adventure story ‘Sunk at Sea’. Following the death of his father, Will has returned to England to visit his mother. Set during the height of the gold rush, when he discovers that his father has left a property in California Will sets off immediately for America to find the property and seek his fortune. A classic adventure story from the much-loved author R.M. Ballantyne. R.M. Ballantyne (1825-1894) was a Scottish artist and prolific author of mostly children’s fiction. Born in Edinburgh, Ballantyne was the ninth of ten children. At the age of 16 Ballantyne moved to Canada, where he worked for the Hudson’s Bay Company, travelling all over the country to trade for fur. He returned to Scotland in 1847 following the death of his father, and it was then that he began his literary career in earnest, writing over 100 children’s adventure books over the course of his life. Stories such as ‘The Coral Island’ and ‘The Young Fur Traders’ were hugely popular, and many of them drew on his own experiences of travelling throughout Canada. A stickler for detail, Ballantyne continued to travel widely to research the backgrounds and settings for his exciting stories. His tales became an inspiration for authors of the future, including ‘Treasure Island’ novelist Robert Louis Stevenson. Ballantyne spent the latter period of his life living in London and Italy for the sake of his health. He died in Rome in 1894 at the age of 68.

Download or read book John P Slough written by Richard L. Miller and published by University of New Mexico Press. This book was released on 2021 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Potts Slough, the Union commander at the Battle of Glorieta Pass, lived a life of relentless pursuit for success that entangled him in the turbulent events of mid-nineteenth-century America. As a politician, Slough fought abolitionists in the Ohio legislature and during Kansas Territory's fourth and final constitutional convention. He organized the 1st Colorado Volunteer Infantry after the Civil War broke out, eventually leading his men against Confederate forces at the pivotal engagement at Glorieta Pass. After the war, as chief justice of the New Mexico Territorial Supreme Court, he struggled to reform corrupt courts amid the territory's corrosive Reconstruction politics. Slough was known to possess a volcanic temper and an easily wounded pride. These traits not only undermined a promising career but ultimately led to his death at the hands of an aggrieved political enemy who gunned him down in a Santa Fe saloon. Recounting Slough's timeless story of rise and fall during America's most tumultuous decades, historian Richard L. Miller brings to life this extraordinary figure.
