Keister Greer History House Pr, 2002 Moonshine is a good read The Great Moonshine Conspiracy Trial of 1935 is an engaging look at an infamous incident in American and Virginian history. I thoroughly enjoyed the accounts from the participants in their own words taken from actual trial transcripts. A fascinating snapshot into Depression-era jurisprudence.

It's interesting to see ...             Elvis and Gladys10 reviews Elaine Dundy Macmillan Pub Co, 1985 The best yet I grew up poor (though not as poor as the Presleys). There were 6 people living in a 2-bedroom home. That Elvis slept with his parents (it gets cold in northern Mississippi and Tennessee) doesn't really shock or surprise me. What does surprise me is that someone like Dee Stanley, who put her own sons in foster care so she could pursue Vernon Presley, would condemn them. I am also not ...             Three Kings in Baghdad: The Tragedy of Iraq's Monarchy1 review Gerald de Gaury I. B. Tauris, 2008 Great Book! This is must if you want to know about the history of Iraq.
