It began in 1913 at a gala evening party at the home of a prominent family in Trenton, New Jersey. Emily was close to middle age, a woman of stunning beauty and charm and with a disarming wit and intelligence. When her host introduced the guest of honor, the current of a force so far unknown to her embraced her mind and body. Alexander, a writer by profession, looked at her, and she knew… Two adult, married persons fell instantly in love without preliminaries, without courting, without compromise. At that moment the fifty or so other guests seemed to vanish. Time stopped. Facing scandal, family disgrace, social ostracism, they fled to what was a less hostile environment in Europe. The advent of World War I changed life for them as it did for the rest of the world. It was many years before Emily could finally divulge her story to her young granddaughter, little knowing that the child would cherish her words, and 38 years later, through the events of her own life, bring Emily's story to a happy ending.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMargaret Ridgely Bergenstjerna\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e(2004, 2005), 2016, 5.5\" x 8.5\", paper, 296 pp.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN: 9780788434501\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e101-B3450\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Heritage Books, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39394681815158,"sku":"101-B3450","price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1654\/3033\/files\/101-b3450-1500px.png?v=1776975635"},{"product_id":"101-k3280","title":"God's Mountain, McLaughlin's Valley","description":"\u003cp\u003eHugh McLaughlin never knew he changed the world.

The Willing War follows the dreams and tribulations of two lovers, Christopher Sims and Hannah Williams, from their insular rural lives in Frederick County, Maryland, to the center stage of revolutionary America. Sharing their trials with such fictional and historical characters as Rachel Jones, Mordecai Gist, Terry Simon, and Mary Goddard, Christopher and Hannah's adventures take them to Baltimore and the Eastern Shore, and expose both to espionage, a plot to kidnap a member of the Maryland delegation to Congress, murder and a looming war, and test their commitment not only to the cause but also to each other. Based upon years of deep and broad research, this novel is the story of two people who decide that they are not victims, nor innocent bystanders, but are, in fact, the revolution. Christopher will go off to join the ranks of Smallwood's legendary Maryland Regiment, while Hannah cares for the family of one of Maryland's most prominent patriot leaders, putting both of them in harm's way.

There he was adopted by the village chief, The Porcupine, and was raised as a Miami under the name of Blacksnake. He experienced a vision quest, learned to hunt, went on the warpath, married, and fathered a son. On November 4th, 1791 he fought by the side of the great Miami war chief Little Turtle at St. Clair's Defeat, the greatest victory the Indians ever won against the U. S. Army. His second wife was the chief's daughter Sweet Breeze. Two years later he switched sides and became head scout for General \"Mad\" Anthony Wayne at the decisive battle of Fallen Timbers, August 20th, 1794. The following summer he was the translator between Little Turtle and Wayne at the Treaty of Greenville, which ceded most of Ohio to the settlers.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFor much of the rest of his life, Wells served as Indian Agent for the Miami, taking Little Turtle and other chiefs to visit Presidents Washington, Adams, and Jefferson in Philadelphia and Washington. In the early nineteenth century, he was often at the center of the conflict between Governor William Henry Harrison's land greed and Tecumseh's militant resistance.

Napoleon was a frequent topic at the Academy where Baron Friedrich von Damsgaard's young son, Rudolph, studied. It was perplexing to Rudolph that some instructors clearly admired Napoleon while others despised him. For Rudolph's family, Napoleon's final defeat at Waterloo was cause for celebration. Rudolph's brothers were allowed to return from their refuge in England once the war was over. Rudolph and his brother, Heinrich, traveled to Heidelberg where Heinrich studied and tutored Rudolph. Captivated by the University, Rudolph later returned to study forestry. Rudolph's interest in the preservation of the forest was handed down from his father who had been Chief of Forestry in the court of Prince Franz. It was a proud day for the whole family when the prince appointed Rudolph to his father's old position. At his investiture as a nobleman, Rudolph met Melanie, a daughter of a noble family. Their romance led to a happy marriage and two children. Rudolph adored his wife and was devastated when she died during childbirth. His mother consoled him, helped him with the children, and introduced him to another young woman. Rudolph needed a loving woman by his side and a mother for his children. Leonora soon became his wife. Difficult times were fast on the heels of Rudolph's newfound happiness. Needing funds, Prince Franz announced plans to sell off forest land. Rudolph opposed the destruction of the forest. Despite advice to submit to the prince's will, he resisted. Prince Franz dismissed him from court, ordering him to leave the country. Rudolph left his beloved homeland with reluctance. The family moved to a farm in Wisconsin. Rudolph, unable to accept this new country and their change in lifestyle, sank into alcoholism.
