Nathan Bedford Forrest's critics have called him everything from a violent backwoodsman, illiterate redneck, and cruel slaver, to a crooked politician, unfaithful husband, and simple-minded hillbilly. However, traditional unreconstructed writers, like award-winning Southern historian and Tennessee author Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook, know that General Forrest was none of these things. In fact, he was quite the opposite, as is revealed in Seabrook's classic work: Nathan Bedford Forrest: Southern Hero, American Patriot.As we learn in this enlightening little book, far from being an inhumane slave owner and trader, Forrest granted most of his servants their freedom even before Lincoln's War. Others he enlisted in his own command (half of dozen who served as his personal guards), then emancipated them in the fall of 1863 - the same year Lincoln issued his "military measure," the fake and illegal Emancipation Proclamation (which freed no slaves in either the North or the South). Forrest never separated servant families, refused to sell to cruel slavers, and was even responsible for reuniting divided black families.Unlike Lincoln - who throughout his life repeatedly blocked black civil rights and aggressively campaigned for American apartheid and the deportation of all blacks out of the U.S. - after the War Forrest happily hired back his original servants with full civil rights, then called for the South to repopulate herself with new African immigrants. Neither the founder or leader of the original 19th-Century KKK (which has no connection to today's KKK) as pro-North and New South historians disingenuously teach, Forrest closed the Conservative anti-carpetbagger organization down in 1869 when it was infiltrated by imposters, who began committing crimes under the KKK banner. These and many other captivating facts are presented clearly and concisely by Col. Seabrook, a cousin of Forrest, in this rousing defense of the Wizard of the Saddle, one of the greatest, most inspiring, beloved, romantic, complex, and intriguing figures in American history.Lavishly illustrated and written in an easy-to-read style, at 120 pages this small volume is perfect for Civil War museum shops, historic homes, or any tourist hot spot. Makes a great gift as well. Nathan Bedford Forrest, just one of 12 books Col. Seabrook has written about the great Southern icon, includes footnotes, a bibliography, and an index. The foreword is by Southern educator James Ronald Kennedy, author of The South Was Right!Neo-Victorian scholar Lochlainn Seabrook, whose literary works range from astronomy to zoology, is one of the most prolific and popular writer-historians in the world today. A descendant of the families of Alexander H. Stephens, John S. Mosby, Edmund W. Rucker, and William Giles Harding, he is known by literary critics as the "new Shelby Foote" and the "American Robert Graves," and by his fans as the "Voice of the Traditional South." The Sons of Confederate Veterans member is a Kentucky Colonel, a recipient of the prestigious Jefferson Davis Historical Gold Medal, and currently the author and editor of 100 educationally enlightening books. Described by his readers as "game changers" and "life-altering," his voluminous writings have introduced hundreds of thousands to vital facts that have been left out of our mainstream books. A 7th generation Kentuckian of Appalachian heritage and the 6th great-grandson of the Earl of Oxford, Col. Seabrook has a 45-year background in American and Southern history, and is the author of the international blockbuster Everything You Were Taught About the Civil War is Wrong, Ask a Southerner!

General Nathan Bedford Forrest was a brave and ingenious Confederate officer who won all but one of the battles he led; a philanthropist who gave generously to family, friends, and charities; and a humanitarian who not only spared the lives of numerous Yankees on the battlefield, but who freed his slaves years before Lincoln reluctantly issued his fake and illegal Emancipation Proclamation. And unlike our liberal sixteenth president, Abraham Lincoln, who purposefully delayed abolition, hindered black social and political advancement, and campaigned throughout his life to have all blacks deported out of the U.S., after the War conservative Forrest crusaded to bring new African immigrants into the South-with full civil rights.No one would know any of this by reading the conventional titles on Forrest, however, nearly all which are written and published by enemies of the South. In fact, according to most Northern and New South authors Forrest was a violent redneck, an unregenerate racist, a barbaric slave trader, a philandering husband, an illiterate hillbilly, the founder and grand wizard of the KKK, and "the butcher of Fort Pillow." None of this is true, but it continues to be presented in our history books as fact.In A Rebel Born: A Defense of Nathan Bedford Forrest, unreconstructed Southern historian, Tennessee author, and Forrest scholar Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook reveals the truth about one of history's most fascinating, charismatic, complex, romantic, and unique individuals. In this refreshingly positive appraisal of Forrest, widely acclaimed as Seabrook's "masterpiece," the author corrects the many falsehoods about him, and, using well researched documentation, shows that the modern negative image of the General derives solely from slanderous myths created 160 years ago by Lincoln's anti-South propaganda machine.The longest book ever written on Ol' Bedford and called "the definitive Forrest biography" by Confederate Veteran magazine, this newly revised Civil War Sesquicentennial edition includes his life story, over 2,000 footnotes, hundreds of rare photos and illustrations (many never before seen by the public), a list of Forrest's military engagements, a Forrest life calendar, Forrest and Montgomery family trees, an 800-book bibliography, a detailed index, and more. Learn the facts about Forrest, facts that have been wantonly suppressed by anti-South proponents. The Foreword is by Dr. Clyde N. Wilson, Distinguished Professor Emeritus of History, University of South Carolina, who included A Rebel Born in his work The War Between the States: 60 Essential Books.

"e;The Hormesis Effect: The Miraculous Healing Power of Radioactive Stones"e; may well be one of the most important books you will ever read. The U.S. is in desperate need of a health revolution: cancer has now surpassed heart disease as the number one killer, affecting nearly one out of every two Americans. But Jay Gutierrez, noted Native American healer and CEO of Night Hawk Minerals in Pritchett, Colorado, has a solution. As told by award-winning New York psychoanalyst, acclaimed holistic health consultant, and author Jane G. Goldberg, Ph.D., Jay has rediscovered a forgotten ancient science that was once well-known to our prehistoricancestors: the healing power of low-level radioactivity. The concept of using low-dose radiation for therapeutic purposes, called in medical literature "e;radiation hormesis,"e; has 100 years of solid scientific research behind it, and thousands of medical studies to support it. The application of low-level radiation promises to save countless lives, as well as millions of dollars in medical bills, as it has already done through Jay's implementation. Radiation hormesis is easy, affordable, and highly effective. If you're like most people, you're afraid of radiation, and all it implies. Yet, in other countries all over the world, millions of people have benefitted from using low-level radiation on everything from tennis elbow, joint pain and arthritis, to far more serious illnesses such as multiple sclerosis, spinal meningitis, autism, stroke, macular degeneration, heart disease and cancer. Jay's unique contribution has been to find an inexpensive delivery system that brings this powerful, proven healing modality to all of us, within the comfort of our own homes: low-level radioactive natural stones. This important, well researched, illustrated book not only tells the story of Jay's modern day rediscovery of natural radiation hormesis, it also provides practical information on how to acquire and use his stones, along with numerous other related techniques on how to improve one's health and treat disease. For medical practitioners, researchers, and scientists there is an annotated bibliography, copious references, and a comprehensive index.

The Goddess Dictionary of Words and Phrases, by award-winning author and historian Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook, is a female empowering, educational compendium of vital information regarding the universal deity known for thousands of years around the globe as "Goddess."The author begins his exploration with the view that both the language of the Bible and modern English are androcentric in nature. In an effort to correct this imbalance, he invites us to include old and new feminine terms in our lexicon. As such, this unique spiritual work focuses specifically on various male-dominant or patriarchal words, expressions, and maxims, from ancient to modern times.Col. Seabrook has taken these and feminized them, a process that has created a new core vocabulary of feministic Goddess-oriented words and phrases. His intellectual word play and verbal inventions comprise what could rightfully be called "new old" words and phrases. That is, he has taken the God-based wording of our current male-dominant vocabulary and simply returned it to its probable original prehistoric feminine form. As chronicled in the archaeological record, after the Patriarchal Takeover (which began c. 4300 B.C.), misogynistic priests masculinized them, suppressing the original female versions.The Goddess Dictionary of Words and Phrases allows these ancient silenced expressions, dedicated to the Great Mother - known in Syria as Mari, in Greece as Myrrha, in ancient Rome as Maria, in early Egypt as Meri, in Babylonia as Marratu, in Israel as Marah, in India as Kel-Mari, in Buddhism as Mara, in Scandinavia as Maerin, in the British Isles as Maid Marian, and in Christianity as Mary - to be brought back to life. For those interested in comparative religion and myth, the author includes copious material on the relationships between numerous Judeo-Christian and Pagan figures, doctrines, myths, symbols, and rituals.This is an important scholarly reference book for anyone interested in thealogy (feminine spirituality), matriarchal and patriarchal language, and prehistoric religion. This heavily illustrated work also includes an exhaustive index, a comprehensive bibliography, and a detailed introduction that briefly covers the history of the Matriarchate and the rise of the Patriarchate.
