This book is not about Lafayette the youthful adventurer; it is not about Lafayette the courtier or Lafayette the wealthy nobleman. This book is about Lafayette the soldier. Through these pages, the reader will hear the tale of young man who heard accounts of his martial ancestors and dreamed of being a soldier. One will travel with him as he saw his dream become a reality, both in France and America. First and foremost, Lafayette saw himself as a soldier and it is as a soldier that this study examines him. The Officers of the Pennsylvania line recognized Lafayette's martial qualities, as did many of Lafayette's other contemporaries. It is now time for history to recognize them as well.

20th Century Life

By: Albert Poirier,Noel Poirier

Albert E. Poirier, Sr., a member of the ""Greatest Generation,"" wrote this memoir detailing the roots of his French-Canadian history, his childhood in the working-class town of Fall River, his schooling in far-off Canada, and his service in the United States Army during World War Two. While originally intended for his family alone, the publication of this memoir provides readers an opportunity to discover the world of an uncommon 20th century young man. Albert Poirier passed away before being able to complete his life memoir, but his grandson has edited this edition so as to share his grandfather's story for all to enjoy.

Poetry of Jonathan G. Murphy: The Bard of Northumberland County, Virginia

By: Noel Poirier,Jonathan G. Murphy

Over twenty years ago my mother, Bonnie Ashworth, passed along to me an old, worn ledger book. The book contained poetry written over one hundred and fifty years ago by her great-great-grandfather and passed down to her by her Grandmother, Caroline Billingham Bentz (Grandpa MurphyÕs granddaughter.) The family possessed several pictures of the author, but no one in the clan could remember precisely who this lyrical ancestor was. He was known to the family as simply ÒGrandpa Murphy.Ó The acquisition of this family heirloom marked the beginning of my long search for the identity of the mysterious Grandpa Murphy, and my family history in general; a search that would ultimately lead me to a small historical society basement on the Northern Neck of Virginia where many of my questions began to be answered.
