Bishop's "History of Roane County" is the standard work on its subject, but its chief appeal to the genealogist can be found in the hundreds of genealogical and historical essays of pioneer families of Roane County that comprise the second half of the work. Those essays, which, in most cases, are based upon interviews conducted by the author with a surviving family member, generally go back to the early nineteenth century and pertain to migrants from Virginia and the middle states possessing British, Irish, or Scotch-Irish stock.

This remarkable book is an alphabetical listing of nearly the entire adult male (and some of the female) population of Monmouth County during the American Revolution--some 6,000 Monmouth Countians between 1776 and 1783. For roughly half of the persons listed, we find one or two identifying pieces of information, and in an equal number of cases we are presented with enough information to trace the allegiance or comings and goings of a Monmouth County resident over a number of years.

Violence in the Valley is a book of short stories about unusual murders and other crimes investigated in the mid-Ohio Valley by the Parkersburg Police Department Detective Bureau, West Virginia State Police, and other agencies along the peaceful Ohio River from Wheeling to Huntington, West Virginia. The stories are about the early days of the detective bureau through the nineteen nineties and beyond involving cases of kidnapping, murder, organized crime, mob hits, decapitation murders, drug wars, and other crimes with an unusaul twist in many instances. They include the largest single family homicide in U.S. history, a mass shooting by a sniper, and contract murders involving drugs and revenge. A description of the crime rate in each decade gives an overview of the major cases that follow in detail.
