Book Description
If you are tired of romance novels with unrealistically “perfect” protagonists, then this story of love triumphing over self-doubt is for you… Callie St. Claire is from an abusive household and is overweight and self-doubting. But with a good heart, God, and prayer, she escapes the prison she knows as Indianapolis, Indiana and heads to the quaint, Hallmark-esque, bayfront town of Edenton, North Carolina in hopes of finding herself and her place in the world. When Callie arrives in Edenton and gets to know some of the locals, she finds everything she never knew she wanted or needed. Colt Andrews is a local Edenton rancher who has not fully come to terms with his father’s death, the sudden departure of his mother, and the loss of his girlfriend to another man. He takes solace in running Redemption Ranch, a place where horses and people alike can find redemption from whatever ills life had thrown their way. When Colt meets Callie, he finds everything he never knew he wanted or needed. Colt eventually offers Callie a job and a cabin at Redemption Ranch, where she quickly bonds with a horse named Warrior over their similar pasts of being abused by people who were supposed to love them. As Callie and Colt spend more time together, electricity sparks between them. But they both have past hurts that cause insurmountable insecurities. Can they move beyond this to mend their broken roads and live together in the love God has for them, or will they instead continue keeping each other at arm’s length?

Book Description
If you’ve ever questioned your decisions as a partner or parent, then this story of forgiveness triumphing over self-doubt is for you... Emelia Taylor, a plus-sized single mom, and her four-year-old daughter, Quinn, are on the run from Emelia’s abusive boyfriend, Gary. Emelia and Quinn eventually land in the quaint, Hallmark-esque, bayfront town of Edenton, North Carolina. Soon after arriving, they find refuge at Redemption Ranch—a place where people and horses alike can find redemption from whatever ills life has thrown their way. Or so they think. Luke Herring is a former Marine plagued with demons from his past. He lives at Redemption Ranch, hoping the ranch will help him rid his mind and body of memories he’d rather forget. Luke and the ranch’s other residents, including Callie Andrews—who, like Emelia, escaped an abusive household—show Emelia and Quinn how to care for the ranch’s horses, many of which are also recovering from abuse. Luke hopes for a deeper relationship with Emelia. But with Luke still recovering and with Gary lurking around the ranch, endangering its residents, Luke and Emelia keep each other at arm’s length so as not to endanger each other. As they navigate their blossoming friendship, will they find the safety, security, and love they both have longed for and allow God to heal their hearts? Or when tragedy strikes, will it drive a wedge further between them? Find out here, in Book 2 of the Edenton Bay Romance Series. WARNING: Finding Redemption Ranch is a work of fiction in which a woman struggles to escape an abusive relationship. As such, this book necessarily contains language and scenarios related to physical and emotional abuse, which might be triggering for some audiences. Reader discretion is advised.

Hunting and Fishing in the New South
Author: Scott E. Giltner
Publisher: JHU Press
ISBN: 1421402378
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
This innovative study re-examines the dynamics of race relations in the post–Civil War South from an altogether fresh perspective: field sports. In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, wealthy white men from Southern cities and the industrial North traveled to the hunting and fishing lodges of the old Confederacy—escaping from the office to socialize among like-minded peers. These sportsmen depended on local black guides who knew the land and fishing holes and could ensure a successful outing. For whites, the ability to hunt and fish freely and employ black laborers became a conspicuous display of their wealth and social standing. But hunting and fishing had been a way of life for all Southerners—blacks included—since colonial times. After the war, African Americans used their mastery of these sports to enter into market activities normally denied people of color, thereby becoming more economically independent from their white employers. Whites came to view black participation in hunting and fishing as a serious threat to the South’s labor system. Scott E. Giltner shows how African-American freedom developed in this racially tense environment—how blacks' sense of competence and authority flourished in a Jim Crow setting. Giltner’s thorough research using slave narratives, sportsmen’s recollections, records of fish and game clubs, and sporting periodicals offers a unique perspective on the African-American struggle for independence from the end of the Civil War to the 1920s.

History of Perquimans County
Author: Ellen Goode Rawlings Winslow
Publisher: Genealogical Publishing Com
ISBN: 0806379960
Category : Deeds
Languages : en
Pages : 544
Book Description
Here is a county history that is extraordinarily rich in primary source materials, including abstracts of deeds from 1681 through the Revolutionary War period and, moreover, petitions, divisions of estates, wills, and marriages found in the records of Perquimans and adjacent North Carolina counties. Numbering in the tens of thousands, the records provide the names of all principal parties and related family members, places of residence and migration, descriptions of real and personal property, dates, boundary surveys, names of executors, witnesses, and appraisers, and dates of recording. Altogether, the index contains references to about 35,000 persons! Researchers should note that Perquimans was one of the original North Carolina precincts--with very close ties to the southeastern Virginia counties of Norfolk, Princess Anne, Nansemond, and Isle of Wight--and for many years had fluid boundaries with the North Carolina counties of Chowan, Gates, and Pasquotank.
