by Fred W. Scott

2004 · iUniverse

Volume 1 of Clifton William Scott...is the rich heritage of a New England family. Fond remembrances of the author's parents are provided by family and friends. Brief family histories of eight branches of the family tree--Scott, Bradford, Taylor, Robinson, Williams, Porter, Shaw, and Ranney--are followed from the immigration of each patron ancestor during the great migration of 1620-1643 from England to either the Pilgrim's Plymouth Colony or the Puritan's Massachusetts Bay Colony, then to the Connecticut Valley towns, and finally to the Berkshire Hills towns of Buckland and Ashfield. Scott and Bradford descendants to the present time are documented, as are the numerous Pilgrim connections to the 1620 Mayflower passengers.

The Civil War on the Outer Banks

by Fred M. Mallison

1998 · McFarland

The ports at Beaufort, Wilmington, New Bern and Ocracoke, part of the Outer Banks (a chain of barrier islands that sweeps down the North Carolina coast from the Virginia Capes to Oregon Inlet), were early involved in the chaos that grew into the Civil War. Though smaller than their counterparts in South Carolina, the small river ports were useful for the import of war materiel and the export of cash producing crops, through their use of the inlets that led from sounds to sea. Written from official records, contemporary newspaper accounts, personal journals of the soldiers, and many unpublished manuscripts and memoirs, this is a full accounting of the Civil War along the North Carolina coast.

The End of Knowing

by Fred Newman, Lois Holzman

1997 · Psychology Press

How do we reconstruct our world when modernist ideas have been refuted and many social problems appear unsolvable? Fred Newman and Lois Holzman offer the alternative of "performed activity"--a non-academic way forward to develop and add meaning to our lives. The authors believe that it is through participation in cultural, educational and psychological projects that one can achieve personal enrichment. These projects and ideas have been formulated from 25 years of practice in the authors' own "anti-institution," a development community free of political and academic affiliations.
