This volume of The New Encyclopedia of Southern Culture offers a timely, authoritative, and interdisciplinary exploration of issues related to social class in the South from the colonial era to the present. With introductory essays by J. Wayne Flynt and by editors Larry J. Griffin and Peggy G. Hargis, the volume is a comprehensive, stand-alone reference to this complex subject, which underpins the history of the region and shapes its future. In 58 thematic essays and 103 topical entries, the contributors explore the effects of class on all aspects of life in the South-its role in Indian removal, the Civil War, the New Deal, and the civil rights movement, for example, and how it manifested in religion, sports, country and gospel music, and matters of gender. Artisans and the working class, indentured workers and steelworkers, the Freedman's Bureau and the Knights of Labour are all examined. This volume provides a full investigation of social class in the region and situates class concerns at the centre of our understanding of Southern culture.

Robert A. Slade, after collecting old fishing tackle since 1958 and contributing articles on old fishing lures for a collector magazine for several years started researching and writing books in the 1990's. He published the HISTORY & COLLECTIBLE FISHING TACKLE OF WISCONSIN in 1999 which sold 4,500 copies. Bob realized that even though there have been many books published on the subject of old fishing lures that few books covered any detailed history on the old lure makers. His latest book writing project was nine years in the making and covers over 100 years of lure making history starting in 1875 and covers over 2,500 lures makers throughout all of North America. THE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF OLD FISHING LURES MADE IN NORTH AMERICA is the first publication with extensive history and patent information on old lure makers and the first to include extensive coverage on Canadian lure makers. The author traveled to 11 states and 3 Candian Providences visting collectors homes, newspaper archives, museums and other sources and has taken over 10,000 pictures in preparing the historical stories for these books. The set of books arranges for the individual and company lures makers to appear in alphabetical order. People purchasing these books can buy any one single book, a whole set, or even a book a month if they desire as the books will be printed and shipped on demand. Each book has over 400 pages of text, pictures and collector values with each book containing a table of contents and index as well as a master index for the complete set of books.

WALTER'S ENCYCLOPEDIA is a unique, scientific and personal glossary published by a maverick researcher of our times. This present illustrated version of the glossary is addressed to the great public, next to an academic version that is published separately. The research this glossery covers goes back to 1985 and thus spans a period of 25 years. The Encyclopedia comes in two volumes. The present Volume 1 is a glossary of general, redefined and proprietary terms the author has created and uses in all his nonfiction books. Volume 2 covers personalities, scientists, authors, artists and other people of fame and renown who have some or the other impact upon the author's perception and value system and who are frequently mentioned in his books. This present volume also comes with a fully illustrated Research FAQ regarding child sexuality, child abuse and pedophilia. For the illustrations, art nudes by Irina Ionesco, Robert Mapplethorpe, Sally Mann, Jan Saudek, and Jock Sturges have been used. Some of the most important entries of the present volume are those that are proprietary to the author, such as 'The Eight Patterns of Living', 'The Science of Emonics', 'Emosexuality', 'Emosexcoaching', 'Life Authoring', 'Live Your Love', 'Oedipal Culture', 'Pedoemotions', 'Pedoerotics', 'Primary Power', or 'The Legal Split in Child Protection'.
