Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. In 1836 a young boy travels with his family to East Tennessee. They settle near the famed frontier town and stagecoach stop of Bean Station where they find both fertile pasture and imposing mountains. In this rugged landscape the boy, Bartlet Yancy Harris, and his siblings mature and begin lives of promise. B.Y., as he soon becomes known, falls in love with and eventually marries Lucretia Gray, whom he has known since childhood. He and his father-in-law begin a business together, and two of his brothers marry Lucretia's sisters. But there is not always agreement between the two families: the Grays own slaves while the Harrises are against slavery. As the Civil War draws near, difficult choices will have to be made. When the country goes to battle against itself, it becomes clear that East Tennessee isn't a place where families will be able to wait out the war, worried about individual solders but safe themselves. As a Union-leaning area within a Confederate state, the region will suffer extensively for four years. When both the Confederacy and the Federals send armies into East Tennessee, the forces not only battle each other but confiscate so much food and livestock that citizens become desperate. Although they hate leaving their families in this turmoil, B.Y. and his brothers eventually enlist with the Union, joining the Eighth Tennessee Volunteer Regiment. At first, to their great frustration, the regiment prepares defenses in Kentucky and Knoxville, Tennessee, instead of fighting. But as the war drags on, more soldiers are needed on the battlefield, and the brothers experience true carnage at battles such as Utoy Creek, near Atlanta, and at Franklin, Tennessee. They also have varying war experiences, and individually endure disease, the infamous Andersonville Prison and various Civil War hospitals. Not all of them survive. Meanwhile their families in Bean Station are suffering also. A battle occurs in the middle of town, and Lucretia faces a group o.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. In sixteen thoroughly engaging essays, naturalist Stephen Lyn Bales ventures far and wide among the richly diverse flora and fauna of his native Tennessee Valley. Whether describing the nocturnal habits of the elusive whip-poor-will, the pivotal role the hedge plant Osage orange played in a key Civil War battle, or the political firestorm that attended the discovery of a tiny fish dubbed the snail darter, Bales illuminates in surprising ways the complicated and often vexed relationships between humans and their neighbors in the natural world.Accompanied by the author's striking line drawings, each chapter in Natural Histories showcases a particular animal or plant and each narrative begins or ends in, or passes through the Tennessee Valley. Along the way, historical episodes both familiar and obscure-the de Soto explorations, the saga of the Lost State of Franklin, the devastation of the Trail of Tears, and the planting of a ?Moon Tree? at Sycamore Shoals in Elizabethton-are brought vividly to life. Bales also highlights the work of present-day environmentalists and scientists such as the dedicated staffers of the Tennessee-based American Eagle Foundation, whose efforts have helped save the endangered raptors and reintroduce them to the wild.Arranged according to the seasonal cycles of the valley, Bales's essays reveal the balance that nature has achieved over millions of years, contrasting it with the messier business of human endeavor, especially the desire to turn nature into a commodity, something to be subdued and harvested. Filled with delightful twists and turns, Natural Histories is also a book brimming with important lessons for us all.Stephen Lyn Bales is a naturalist at Ijams Nature Center in Knoxville, Tennessee. He has been writing the ?Neighborhood Naturalist? for the farragutpress since 1999 and is a regular columnist for the Hellbender Press.…
