In this novel you will, in a way, be taken back in time. No this is not science fiction but, a tale of what has happened to the once great nation of the United States. You will be going two hundred fifty years into the future but, man has gone backwards over three hundred years. Technology belongs to the Illuminati which now call themselves The Builders and, average man has become tribal much like the American Indian of the early 1800's. Don Gilmore, whose ancestor was Ricky Gilmore, is the tribal records keeper. Like his ancestor he will find that there are more things out there than just the Builders to worry about. There are horrors and evolutionary changes in animals that would have driven Ricky mad but, he will deal with them all. Don is proud of his ancestor and does his best to emulate him. Sometimes when reading the records that Ricky started he wishes that things were so easy in his time. In all times; the past, the present, the future; there is always someone that wants to take what you have and Don will not stand for that. But, will he survive the horrors of his time? Will he survive the Builders? Will he survive?

During the early 1980's I, as Ricky Gilmore, and a few friends form a survival group called The Wild Hogs. Believing that the United States would soon fall to a newly elected and self proclaimed Marxist president, the Wild Hogs plan on surviving the outcome. As time went on, young Ricky moved up from just being a new survival group leader to ranks that controlled most of the fighting forces in Texas that stayed busy fighting the invading United Nations troops. Before long Ricky found out that a much more powerful force was controlling the United Nation's troops and the president of the once great United States. There was no longer a United States and most southern states formed their own republics. With most of the nation fragmented into their own republics Ricky knew that they had to get united. The United Republics of America was formed just in time to see more enemies than they might could handle. The fight was on as the UN started using nuclear and biological weapons of all types. As the population of Earth droped dramatically young Ricky and what is left of his fighting forces must try to survive.

In April 2008, state police and child protection authorities raided Yearning for Zion Ranch near Eldorado, Texas, a community of 800 members of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ Latter Day Saints (FLDS), a polygamist branch of the Mormons. State officials claimed that the raid, which was triggered by anonymous phone calls from an underage girl to a domestic violence hotline, was based on evidence of widespread child sexual abuse. In a high-risk paramilitary operation, 439 children were removed from the custody of their parents and held until the Third Court of Appeals found that the state had overreached. Not only did the state fail to corroborate the authenticity of the hoax calls, but evidence reveals that Texas officials had targeted the FLDS from the outset, planning and preparing for a confrontation. Saints under Siege provides a thorough, theoretically grounded critical examination of the Texas state raid on the FLDS while situating this event in a broader sociological context. The volume considers the raid as an exemplar case of a larger pattern of state actions against minority religions, offering comparative analyses to other government raids both historically and across cultures. In its look beyond the Texas raid, it provides compelling evidence of social intolerance and state repression of unpopular minority faiths in general, and the FLDS in particular.

“Few people realize that in the area of law, Texas began its American journey far ahead of most of the rest of the country, far more enlightened on such subjects as women’s rights and the protection of debtors.” Thus James Haley begins this highly readable account of the Texas Supreme Court. The first book-length history of the Court published since 1917, it tells the story of the Texas Supreme Court from its origins in the Republic of Texas to the political and philosophical upheavals of the mid-1980s. Using a lively narrative style rather than a legalistic approach, Haley describes the twists and turns of an evolving judiciary both empowered and constrained by its dual ties to Spanish civil law and English common law. He focuses on the personalities and judicial philosophies of those who served on the Supreme Court, as well as on the interplay between the Court’s rulings and the state’s unique history in such areas as slavery, women’s rights, land and water rights, the rise of the railroad and oil and gas industries, Prohibition, civil rights, and consumer protection. The book is illustrated with more than fifty historical photos, many from the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It concludes with a detailed chronology of milestones in the Supreme Court’s history and a list, with appointment and election dates, of the more than 150 justices who have served on the Court since 1836.

“[A] firsthand account by one who measured up to the demands of danger and hardships and lived to write about it . . . Invaluable . . . Well documented.” —Library Journal As a teenager in the 1950s, John Holmes Jenkins set to work on collecting and editing his great-great-grandfather’s writings about his experiences on the Texas frontier. John Holland Jenkins joined General Sam Houston’s army at age thirteen after losing his stepfather at the Alamo. In addition to fighting the Mexicans, he faced peril from Indian warriors as well as the everyday difficulties of pioneer life. His reports on the events of the time were included in newspapers with very small readerships—and, his descendant would discover, were sometimes used word-for-word in respected history textbooks without any credit given to the source. This volume includes these memoirs of the Texas Republic and early statehood, along with illustrations, notes, biographical sketches, a bibliography, and an index. “Fascinating . . . A commendable job.” —The New York Times “[These reminiscences] light up for whoever will read the earliest days of early English-speaking Texas.” —J. Frank Dobie, from the foreword
