We want stories that convince us that the author was actually there, whether they were or not. Some examples of the type of story we’d like to see are William Manchester’s The Glory and the Dream, I Am Malala by Malala Yousafzai, or Stephen Woodworth’s Nothing But Victory.


Forgotten Fayetteville by J.B. Hogan

A lot of things happen in two centuries.

Fayetteville and Washington County came into being almost 200 years ago. Much of the history of the area has been preserved and is easily accessed, but sometimes, our local history gets lost or simply drops out of the public’s consciousness. Take a trip into forgotten history. It’s a journey well worth the effort.

Discover Victorian Recipes with a Side of Scandal by award-winning author Sherry Monahan—a tantalizing blend of authentic Victorian-era recipes and the scandalous life of English socialite Ethel Barry. Journey through a world where culinary traditions meet rebellion, and taste history through the recipes that shaped Ethel’s unconventional life.

Back to Bremen by Cecelia Wilson

Edith Röpke, her seven siblings, and their mother have learned to be silent and live inconspicuously….

It is 1939. On the cusp of World War II, the city of Bremen holds its breath with quiet unease. For years, the Jews have been excluded from everyday life, persecuted at the hands of the Nazis.
Edith‘s childhood is shaped by unrelenting Allied bombing raids, streets strewn with dead bodies, and the ever-present reminder to trust no one outside the family.
