From the pages of American history comes The Roswell Women As they watched a nation being torn asunder, the women of Roswell, Georgia could hardly stand idle. Left without their men, they ran the Roswell mill to provide a flagging Confederate Army with proud gray uniforms. But their defiance branded them as traitors to the North and they were mercilessly shipped northward in an act decried as brutal by both North and South alike.

Rebecca Smiley-Both friend and servant, she had groomed her mistress, Allison, for the life of an aristocrat. Despite the war, she would see to it that she regained her rightful place.

The Civil War is most often described as one in which brother fought against brother. But the most devastating war fought on American soil was also one in which women demonstrated heroic deeds, selfless acts, and courage beyond measure. Women mobilized soup kitchens and relief societies. Women cared for wounded soldiers. Women were effective spies. And it is estimated that 300 women fought on the battlefields, usually disguised as men. The most fascinating Civil War women include: Harriet Tubman, a former slave, who led hundreds of fellow slaves to freedom on the Underground Railroad Four hundred women who were seized in Roswell, Georgia, deported to Indiana, and vanished without a trace Belle Boyd, the "Siren of the Shenandoah," who at the age of seventeen killed a Union soldier "Crazy" Elizabeth Van Lew, who deliberately fostered the impression that she was eccentric so that she could be an effective spy for the North "The poor fellow sprang from my hands and fell back quivering in the agonies of death. A bullet had passed between my body and the right arm which supported him, cutting through my sleeve and passing through his chest from shoulder to shoulder." ?Clara Barton, founder of the American Red Cross "We were all amused and disgusted at the sight of a thing that nothing but the debased and depraved Yankee nation could produce. [A woman] was dressed in the full uniform of a Federal surgeon. She was not good looking, and of course had tongue enough for a regiment of men." ?Captain Benedict J. Semmes, describing Mary Walker, M.D.

No Votes for Women explores the complicated history of the suffrage movement in New York State by delving into the stories of women who opposed the expansion of voting rights to women. Susan Goodier finds that conservative women who fought against suffrage encouraged women to retain their distinctive feminine identities as protectors of their homes and families, a role they felt was threatened by the imposition of masculine political responsibilities. She details the victories and defeats on both sides of the movement from its start in the 1890s to its end in the 1930s, acknowledging the powerful activism of this often overlooked and misunderstood political force in the history of women's equality.

"Women and the Land takes a look at more than twenty-five women who are impacting Iowa's farmland. Some of them have inherited rural property and are managing the agriculture practices from afar. Some are working the land directly, providing food to the heartland. Some are working in tandem with their husbands, fathers, sisters, daughters. Many of them grew up on a farm, left the land to get an education and left the state to follow their passions, only to find that their deepest passion is really the land, and have returned to it. Each of the women is affecting the land in her own unique and feminine way" -- Amazon.com

“[The authors] have, like each whistleblower before them, paid a price for their . . . amplification of the truth. . . . The most profound event in human history.” —Joseph G. Buchman, Ph.D, moderator for the Citizen Hearing on Disclosure Two of the world’s leading investigators declare definitively that the Roswell Incident happened and present their closing arguments. For more than seventy years, the crash at Roswell and its ensuing controversies and cover-ups have been investigated. Yet despite continually mounting evidence, there are still disbelievers. Roswell: The Ultimate Cold Case is Carey and Schmitt’s final and commanding word on the case in which they declare victory once and for all. The government has changed their official story on Roswell more than a dozen times, but the witnesses have not recanted. The evidence has not gone away. And won’t go away. The Roswell Incident is the most hotly debated and investigated UFO crash in history with seemingly endless evidence, and eyewitnesses coming forward even years later. Finally, late in life people feel safe enough or feel duty bound to reveal what they know, saw, and heard. Roswell: The Ultimate Cold Case will bring all new exclusive eye witness testimonies to light as well as cover the: Connection of astronauts Edgar Mitchell and Neil Armstrong to Roswell. Connection of Clinton, Carter, Goldwater, Schiff, and Richardson to Roswell. First time artist conception of impact site with craft and bodies based on firsthand testimony. First time full-size model of crash survivor based on eyewitness testimony. And more eyewitness corroboration. “There is no one on this planet who knows more about the Roswell incident than these two guys.” —Larry Landsman, director of special projects for the Syfy Channel
