Carnton Plantation Ghost Stories: True Tales of the Unexplained from Tennessee's Most Haunted Civil War House! 2nd edition
Lochlainn Seabrook
With its 100-year history of infant mortality, violence, murder, war, surgical amputations, political intrigue, thousands of ghastly deaths, and a long streak of truly bad luck, it's little wonder that Carnton Plantation is haunted, or that thousands travel each year to visit its hallowed grounds in the hopes of spotting a ghost themselves. What is perhaps more amazing is that no one has thought to chronicle the accounts of Carnton's many ghost stories, and put them in a book for readers of all ages. Lochlainn Seabrook, a former Carnton tour guide and the author of dozens of popular Civil War books, has rectified this situation by providing us with the first nonfiction book ever written about the goblins of Tennessee's most haunted Civil War house. ?Carnton Plantation Ghost Stories? is loaded with both fun and serious facts touching on numerous topics, from the Civil War, plantation life, and Victorian culture, to 19th-Century medicine, genealogy, and slavery. And all is written from the South's point of view, a refreshing perspective that enriches an already fascinating subject: a Southern plantation full of Civil War ghosts! Included is a complete list of the dead Rebel soldiers buried at the McGavock Confederate Cemetery, over 100 photos and illustrations of paranormal energies, Carnton Mansion, and the grounds, maps of the property, a wonderful and useful "Ghostly Glossary," a history of both Carnton and the Battle of Franklin II, and discussions on Lincoln's War. Additionally, Seabrook, who is related to the founders and owners of Carnton, has thoughtfully included a family tree for the plantation clan. Entertaining yet educational, diverting yet gripping, this is a book that everyone from ghost-hunters to Civil War buffs will want on their shelf. The foreword is by Austin Cook, team leader of SyFy Channel?s hit TV series ?Killer Contact.? Seabrook, a former Carnton tour guide and a relative of the McGavock and Winder families, is a recipient of the prestigious Jefferson Davis Historical Gold Medal. Known as the ?American Robert Graves? after his celebrated English cousin, Seabrook is the sixth great-grandson of the Earl of Oxford, and the author of over thirty popular adult, teen, and children?s books, including: ?The McGavocks of Carnton Plantation: A Southern History?; ?Encyclopedia of the Battle of Franklin?; ?Everything You Were Taught About the Civil is Wrong, Ask a Southerner!?; ?Give This Book to a Yankee! A Southern Guide to the Civil War For Northerners?; ?Honest Jeff and Dishonest Abe: A Southern Children?s Guide to the Civil War?; ?A Rebel Born: A Defense of Nathan Bedford Forrest?; ?Abraham Lincoln: The Southern View?; ?The Quotable Stonewall Jackson?; ?The Old Rebel: Robert E. Lee As He Was Seen By His Contemporaries?; ?The Alexander H. Stephens Reader?; ?The Unquotable Abraham Lincoln: The President?s Quotes They Don?t Want You to Know!?; ?Jesus and the Law of Attraction?; and ?The Bible and the Law of Attraction.?
