Revivals to Revolvers . . . To Die for Commonwealth and Family!

By: COL Charles W. L. Hall, Ph.D.

Over two thousand men were recruited for this regiment from the counties of Hickman, Fayette, Bullitt, Jefferson, Graves, Franklin, Harrison, Scott, Owen, Bourbon, and Anderson throughout 1861 1865! The Second Kentucky persevered over three years of unbelievable hardship valorously and under constant threat of death! Honoring all Kentuckians past and present! Part of the real life story is given to us through the memoirs and diary of Colonel Roger W. Hanson, commanding the Louisville Legion, Jefferson County, Kentucky. Every attempt has been made to fully represent our regiment in this book, to include a regiment roster of all officers and men who selfishly served their state, their conscience, and the Confederacy!

You Have to Pay for the Public Life

Selected Essays of Charles W. Moore

By: Charles W. Moore

Previously uncollected essays of an architect whose love of people, buildings, and nature was reflected in the places he built. Architect Charles Moore (1925-1993) was not only celebrated for his designs; he was also an admired writer and teacher. Though he wrote clearly and passionately about places, he was perhaps unique in avoiding the tone and stance of the personal manifesto. Through his buildings, books, and travels, Moore consistently sought insights into the questions that always underlie architecture and design: What does it mean to make a place, and how do we inhabit those places? How do we continue to build upon but respect the landscape? How do we reconcile democracy and private land ownership? What is original? What is taste? What is the relationship between past and present? How do we involve inhabitants in making places? Finally, what is public life? As the world becomes smaller, and the uniqueness of places and landscapes gives way to sameness, Moore's celebration of the vernacular and of the surprising are more relevant than ever.The pieces in this book span the years 1952 to 1993 and engage a myriad of topics and movements, such as contextualism, community participation, collaboration, environmentally sensitive design, and historic preservation. The essays in this book reflect as well Moore's scholarship, humanism, urbanity, and great wit.
