Join us as we explore many of Columbus’ postcards, spanning from 1890-1968. Due to inadequate documentation of the day, we will surely never have a precise figure of how many postcards were released of Columbus, but this book (which also explores nearby Elba), is a great guide featuring many of the postcards in a rough chronological order. In the third installment of the series, we yet again take a look through the fascinating and rich history of the community of Columbus, Wisconsin, but this time we do so through the numerous postcards, that were once a quite common item to be admired for their imagery, as-well as the communication benefit of the day. During the early 20th Century in p ...

The first comprehensive history of one of the most colorful areas in Arizona. The southern Bradshaws contained, at one time, some of the busiest and most productive mines in the territory. Because of their relative inaccessibility, they still retain much of the rough-and-tumble flavor of the early West. Hundreds of hours of research, as well as interviews with many long-time Bradshaw residents, have resulted in a fascinating look at a vital part of Arizona's history.

On the morning of June 25th, 1876, Lieutenant Colonel George Armstrong Custer made a fateful decision to attack a large Native American village camped on the banks of the Little Big Horn River. It was a decision that would cost him his life, the lives of 268 of his men, and the lives of over 60 Native Americans defending their right to live free. Myths, mysteries, and legends of this fight have grown for over 142 years, elevating a lonely patch of dirt and grass, dotted with white and brown tombstones, to mythological proportions. How did this apocalyptic clash of cultures happen? What is true, and what is conjecture? What really happened? Experience the entire battle as it was tol ...

Why are we here? Although that may be the number one question at our core, perhaps the better question would be - what do we do until someone finds a reasonable answer? A tree will tree, a cat will cat, a planet will planet, and humans will......what? Stop, look around, ask yourself - wtf are we doing? With resources thinning, interest in the unknown waning, and patience thinning - not only is it time for a better question, but it is time for a Truthful answer. You will be taken to a burial site 100 miles south of Cairo. This site is believed to house the Kings of Ancient Egypt's 3rd and 4th Dynasties. If unspoiled by tomb robbers, this site will not only yield well over one t ...

This document is a continuation of Volume II but focuses on the people living in what was called Valcartier East, including the St-Ignace Concession. This book attempts to record the family histories of the early settlers to this community, with a special emphasis on the people living there in 1864. I have tried to determine who they were, when and where they came from and where they settled in what became known as St Gabriel de Valcartier or Valcartier East. This encompassed all the lots south and south east of the Jacques Cartier River which was the dividing line between Valcartier West and Valcartier East. I provided as much information on them and their offspring as I could find, wi ...
