Why is the Left targeting Confederate monuments for removal and destruction? Ignorance, social spite, and political expediency! But the Liberal's sinister efforts to eradicate American history do more than just offend the living. They are an insult to the character and memory of one of the most courageous and patriotic serviceman the world has ever known: the Confederate soldier.
If you are a truth-seeker and want to know why Confederate monuments should be treated as national treasures, you owe it to yourself to read the deeply researched works of world acclaimed Southern historian Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook, starting with his highly topical volume, Confederate Monuments: Why Every American Should Honor Confederate Soldiers and Their Memorials.
Conveniently divided into three sections, the first debunks the fake history fabricated by the Left to conceal the facts about Lincoln's War and turn America against the South. Here we learn about the true history of the conflict, the early tradition of nationwide U.S. support for Confederate soldiers, the unique origins of Southern patriotism, the legal rights of the Confederate dead, and the many stringent preservation laws surrounding their memorials. The second section provides a massive pictorial sampling of the thousands of Confederate monuments that dot the American landscape, arranged alphabetically by state and city. The book ends with a fascinating appendices section comprising 19th-Century speeches, addresses, articles, and lists related to the Confederacy and her awe-inspiring granite landmarks.
Throughout this densely illustrated work, the award-winning author sprinkles scores of additional Confederate images from the Victorian Era, along with dozens of poems, quotes, and genuine inscriptions from Confederate statues, all which add further educational value to this already powerful and informative pictorial primer. This is the only book of its kind, and the only one you will ever need to combat the Yankee myths and Liberal lies surrounding the phony "controversial" issue of Confederate soldiers and their precious stone memorials.
Colonel Seabrook confidently predicts that thousands of new Confederate monuments will go up in the future. Because once the historical truths revealed in his book are more widely known, U.S. President William McKinley's charge that all Americans should share in honoring the Confederate dead will be taken seriously, and patriots everywhere will be clamoring to help fund, build, and raise as many memorials as possible to our country's heroic men in gray! Confederate Monuments is available in paperback and hardcover.
Neo-Victorian historian Lochlainn Seabrook, whose literary works range from astronomy to zoology, is one of the most prolific and popular writers in the world today. A descendant of the families of Alexander H. Stephens, John S. Mosby, Edmund W. Rucker, and William Giles Harding, he is known by literary critics as the "new Shelby Foote" and the "American Robert Graves," and by his fans as the "Voice of the Traditional South." The Sons of Confederate Veterans member is a Kentucky Colonel, a recipient of the prestigious Jefferson Davis Historical Gold Medal, and the author and editor of nearly 100 scholarly books (currently). Described by his readers as "game changers" and "life-altering," his voluminous writings have introduced hundreds of thousands to vital facts that have been left out of our mainstream books. A 7th generation Kentuckian of Appalachian heritage and the 6th great-grandson of the Earl of Oxford, Col. Seabrook has a 45-year background in American and Southern history, and is the author of the international blockbuster Everything You Were Taught About the Civil War is Wrong, Ask a Southerner!
Industry Reviews
REVIEW QUOTES
"True American patriots love the Southern Confederacy, her soldiers, and her monuments. Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook explains why you should too in this clearly written, lavishly illustrated, emotionally powerful book." - THE PUBLISHER
"Absolutely loved this book! I have always wanted to go see the monuments but never had the chance. This book will be my tour since I will more than likely never get to see them in person. It is a shame that the truth has been hidden from people about the South. This book is for anyone who values the truth!" - YELLA ROSE
"The Civil War took many lives in the South and most people forget just how many. Most books can't begin to give you the breadth of the damage. But with Lochlainn Seabrook's book Confederate Monuments, you have many pictures of monuments large and small dedicated to the Confederate dead. This book makes for a good traveling companion as well." - FREEDOM FIRST
"Highly recommended for it's unique and refreshing take on the issue!" - JERRY CAINE
"Eye opening and well written! I am thoroughly satisfied with this book. Not only did it cover monuments and their locations (along with an image), it also corrects some of the falsehoods and explained why they were false regarding the Civil War, which I found very useful. Glad that I bought Confederate Monuments and look forward to reading it a few times and pass it onto family members too." - LAKE-CUMBERLAND
"This is a book that I couldn't put down especially considering the modern destruction and removal of Confederate monuments across the South. Buy it. Read it. And enlighten Your Soul and Mind. Thank you Col. Seabrook for this wonderful tribute to the Confederate Soldier!" - JAY KRUIZENGA
