This is the story of the eleven Companies of the "Fighting Fourteenth Regiment" as seen through the eyes of James William Covington, a self-styled "blacksmith with a literary turn" and member of the Regimental Band, along with seven other soldiers who recorded their thoughts and feelings in journals and letters to their loved ones. They were common men who lived in the most uncommon of times and as such, were called upon to perform uncommon deeds. It is seen against the backdrop of our country's greatest struggle; a war that pitted brother against brother, father against son, and took the lives of more Americans than all the combined wars before or since.

Anger has a unique place in a man's emotional life. For may men, uncomforable emotions surface as anger. Men have learned to trade pain for rage. Instead of simply feeling shame, despair, fear, or depression, they get mad. The Vicious Circles Manual provides an alternative for men who have come to recognize that they are emotionally bankrupt using this old exchange of emotions for anger. This alternative direction begins with Mad Science, the careful, objective evaluation of the angering process. It aims not at eliminating anger, but rather transforming it so that it can get what it really wants. This book provides a step-by-step map that can result in lasting emotional change. Not all anger is created equal. The Vicious Circles Manual describes six typical Vicious Circles of anger addiction. Anger addiction is an addiction to power--physical or emotional. Each of the Vicious Circles is an attempt to create a kind of value: peace, love, freedom, justice, order, or respect. But when we use anger to try to create these values, it backfires. We end up creating the opposite values--conflict, distance, confinement, injustice, chaos, and shame. Part of the Vicious Circles manual is the I-Rate test, which will help you identify your own type of addiction to power. The Vicious Circles Manual has a simple cognitive-behavioral approach to anger management. It has multiple worksheets and over 30 illustrations.

Stephen Craig describes himself as both an artist and an architect. His ambiguous work tests the boundaries between independent sculpture and architecture, often referencing the historical structures of Mies and his concept of the liberation of architectural elements and the creation of transitional zones between interior and exterior space.
