(REVIEW) "Many thought-provoking lessons can be gleaned from the life of an average 19th-century Virginian. How did he survive the Civil War and Reconstruction? What did he treasure the most? In A Life of Duty and Devotion we have the wonderful biography of William Henry Talley, a Fluvanna County everyman who fought in Mosby's Rangers--one of the Civil War's most famous outfits--then after the war attended Virginia Military Institute. Briefly afflicted with 'Texas Fever,' as were so many Virginians, Talley returned home to care for his mother and siblings. It's a touching story--a tale of struggle during one of the Old Dominion's most difficult periods."

GARY KESSLER'S
 new mystery novel, What the Spider Saw, is our most recent release. The foundation of the story is an historical and legendary murder case that occurred in Charlottesville, Virginia, in 1904 and is spun into a current-day fictional drama with many parallels.

SARA ROBINSON'S
 first collection of poetry, Two Little Girls in a Wading Pool, was released January 1, 2012. Sara says her poetry didn't evolve until later in life, but she was writing poetry as early as age 8. (Sara Robinson, age 8, pictured at top of page.) In this first collection, Sara shares the milestones of her life beginning with her childhood in Elkton, Virginia, and her observations of small town life, accented by memories of her travels and dreams of far away places, to settling in Charlottesville.

ANDY STRAKA'S
 mystery and crime fiction novel, A Witness Above (with Bonus Falconry Primer for Teens) is book one in the Frank Pavlicek Mystery Series. It has been adapted for teen readers from an original version written for adults. The book is part of the author's 2012 outreach mission to encourage more teens to read, especially boys, and to foster discussions about teen issues better resolved by developing leadership skills. Like Frank Pavlicek in the book, the author is a falconer and makes author appearances with his Harris hawk. The "way of the hawk" provides a wealth of life lessons (and fun) for ALL ages.
