The story of the American Civil War is best told by those who lived it and endured the hardships, heartaches, and sacrifices on the battlefield and throughout long, hard-fought campaigns. Bvt. Colonel Edward Culp brings us telling accounts of the 25th Ohio Volunteer Infantry, cited in Fox's Regimental Losses in the American Civil War, 1861-1865 as one of the 300 fighting regiments of the Civil War. Cross Keys, 1862."The deafening roar of musketry and the wiz of grape and canister. The crushing of timber by the dread missiles mingled with the unearthly yells of opposing forces and the moaning of the dying and the screams of the wounded. Oh God, how terrible is war..."--Sgt. T.J. Evans Gettysburg, 1863. "...under the cover of smoke, the rebels made a desperate charge and succeeded in gaining the very crest of the hill (Cemetery Hill). Among the batteries the fighting was hand-to-hand."--Lt. E. C. Culp Honey Hill, 1864. "A tremendous roar of musketry had commenced along the line, but we steadily advanced, right into the tangled wall of vines and briers, which clung to us as we tore our way through them."--Cpl. Samuel Wildman

Aria has settled into her life at the palace with her family and has made a mark in her role as princess. But behind the polished facade lies darker secrets. She is not the king's daughter but his brother's and her mother the queen may have had a man killed to keep it hidden; her guard David can barely look her in the eye after a mistake and her kingdom is on the verge of war. Xavia's only chance lies with allying with the rebel states, leading to an influx of guests at the palace who open her eyes to the plights of the kingdom. But rumours of another heir lead to a betrayal and a confrontation that shatters Aria to the core, so much so that the war may be the least her worries. The intrigue, mystery and deadly glamour of To Catch Rebel continues in To Raise a Banner.

"When the standard of the Union is raised and waves over my head-the standard which Washington planted on the ramparts of the Constitution, God forbid that I should inquire whom the people have commissioned to unfurl it, and bear it up; I only ask in what manner, as an humble individual, I can best discharge my duty in defending it." -Daniel Webster, Our Flag (1872) Our Flag: Origin and Progress of the Flag of the United States of America (1872) by George Henry Preble details the origins and use of flags, standards, and banners in Europe and Asia before delving into their use and history in the U.S. This edition is an original illustrated replica including 12 color plates of the flags of ancient and modern nations, the American states, the U.S. Navy, and Southern flags of the Civil War. Preble's in-depth research of the flag is certain to educate and enlighten any reader interested in learning more about this iconic symbol.

This Civil War family saga “bear[s] comparison to the work of Jane Aiken Hodge” and “sweeps readers along with a nice blend of drama and social history” (Publishers Weekly). Nineteenth-century Britain: the abolitionists have won. Slavery is outlawed. A valiant victory—but it’s all too easy to forget that in the rest of the world the inhuman practice is still a part of everyday life. A thought that the usually clear-thinking Mattie Henderson chooses to suppress when she finds herself unexpectedly married and on her way to South Carolina with her new husband. Mattie realizes too late that she is heading towards a country where a bitter civil war is about to break out—brother against brother, father against son. And the innocent, as always, will suffer with the guilty. A generation later and the battle is still not won: the grim slave trade still flourishes. This time it is Mattie’s estranged and headstrong son Harry who, against the backdrop of the glorious Nile finds himself caught up in the murderous machinations of the slavers. From the American Civil War to the slave trade in Egypt, Freedom’s Banner is the perfect generational saga of love, family, and redemption. “Crane is gifted at tying political and historical strands together into an unusually gripping family saga with a sense of purpose” —Booklist

"At a time when freedom is being trampled in Ukraine and Russia, Freedom's Banner tells an inspiring story." Marcus Ferrar, author of The Fight for Freedom: Triumphs and Defeats "A brilliant analysis... Made me want to take to the streets as well as the courts." Baroness Helena Kennedy QC, Chair of JUSTICE "Written with passion... Triumphant." Professor Bill Bowring, University of London Now in its third edition, this groundbreaking text remains the first and definitive global history of non-violent demonstration. Starting in the 18th Century, Freedom's Banner provides a tour of some of humanity's most seminal moments, from the Peterloo Massacre to the suffragette movement to Ghandi's Salt March, Martin Luther King, and the tragedy in Tiananmen Square. This updated edition includes a chapter on the Hong Kong protests of 2016 and 2019. More than just a retelling of events, this book traces the thread of influence that each act of protest exerted over the ones to follow. Themes are highlighted and the hard-won legal victories explained. Passionate, provocative, and meticulously researched, this is a book that both inspires and informs. Paul Harris is a leading human rights barrister, who has defended high profile clients from London to Colombia, Nepal and East Timor. He represented Brian Haw, who for many years successfully maintained the right to camp on London's Parliament Square in protest at Western foreign policy and the Iraq war. More recently, he has represented the Chagos Islanders in their quest to return home. In 2021 he was elected Chair of the Hong Kong Bar Association.
