Dering Letters Volume 1

By: Patricia and Edward Shillingburg

The Dering letters involve members of the family from 1733 to 1838. Henry Dering arrived in America in the mid-1600. He began as a bar keep in a small village in New Hampshire and ended up as a merchant in Boston, a business that he left to his only son, who in turn left it to his two sons. The business was lost to fire and bad credit and Thomas took his wife and child to the 1,000 acre estate on Shelter Island the wife and her sister had inherited.Three generations lived and worked there through the Revolution and the beginnings of a new nation before a tragic death caused the family to sell.

Nine Lives

By: Patricia and Edward Shillingburg

The first generation of young people following the Revolution were full of hope and anxious to stretch their wings through education and adventure. We know the Dering family's activities because the father Sylvester who saved his letters also wrote of family affairs to his son Nicoll who also saved his letters. These are stories of nine young people (all of whom are related, save one) told through their letters. Abraham Tuthill aspired to be a portrait painter; Frances Dering and Frances Sage would forge a deep bond; Sisters Catherine and Frances Huntington shared a school in New York; Charles Thomas Dering invested in the Union, a whaling ship; Mary L'Hommedieu suffered financially as a child; Margaret Dering married a man who was disowned by his father for seeking a career as a preacher; Eliza Gardiner found comfort in a kind man.

Lords of Corruption

A True Story Based on the Life of Jack Portock - Legendary Atlantic City Police Officer Who Led the Four Horsemen of Atlantic City

By: Edward Thomas Ellson

Long before casinos became legal in Atlantic City, New Jersey, a powerful political machine known as The Organization sanctioned and operated gambling establishments throughout the resort. Mobsters aided by corrupt politicians and cops-on-the-take controlled the citys businesses, both legitimate and shady. In the early 1950s, four honest policemen, led by determined officer Jack Portock, battled the corruption and illegal operations in the name of the laws theyd sworn to uphold. Their efforts earned them nationwide prominence and powerful enemies, including the leader of The Organization, New Jersey State Senator Frank Hap Farley. Farley and his minions would stop at nothing to discredit and defeat the intrepid officers. From the resort nicknamed the Worlds Finest Playground to the Kefauver Crime Commissions televised hearings on organized crime held in Washington, D.C., Lords of Corruption tells the gripping, true story of the legendary Jack Portock and his fellow officers who came to be known as The Four Horsemen of Atlantic City.
