NF Weirdest ACW Author Ever...?

[TallTallMan]

Trust me, I wasn't looking for this.

I was on Amazon and was looking at the "Customers also bought items by" for Howard Ray White, and saw this guy:

The Honorable Cause: A Free South: Twelve Southern Essays: Martin, Padraig: 9798387915727: Amazon.com: Books

The Honorable Cause: A Free South: Twelve Southern Essays [Martin, Padraig] on Amazon.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. The Honorable Cause: A Free South: Twelve Southern Essays

www.amazon.com

This is a collection of twelve essays by Southern authors and activists. In many ways, this is a 21st version of "I'll Take My Stand: the South and the Agrarian Tradition." These are Southerners who advocate a free and independent South. This book explains their ideological positions in their own words. It explains a unique Southern identity born within these United States. Finally, it lays out a vision as to how the South can achieve a Free and Independent status as a Nation-State, with a right of self-determination for its people.

Check those authors' names. I most want to know who Harmonica is.

This is by far--to quote C. Vann Woodward--"the lowest ebb" of Civil Wardom. These guys are probably the weirdest group of fringe loonies I've encountered, worse than Abbeville and the Society of Independent Southern Historians!

Also, does anybody know an exorcist I can use for my computer?

You may have actually found the Weirdest Civil War author. Who in the world would have a master's degree in Islamic studies and write about the Civil War?

Thanks for the warning.

I'm more interested in his felony charge than his book.

I have notoriety on this forum for apparently attracting these things.

Thanks for the warning.

Warning? I was hoping we'd all read it as a book club

I'm more interested in his felony charge than his book.

For causing irreparable brain damage.

That is an interesting marketing choice.

Thought criminal? Is he thinking things he shouldn't be?

Based on his posts, yes.

As a Cleburne fan I feel bad for him being used as this guy's mask.

Harmonica? Dixie O'Hara? Dick Dirtwater? Hard to take people seriously with pen names like that.

Finally, it lays out a vision as to how the South can achieve a Free and Independent status as a Nation-State, with a right of self-determination for its people.

No longer possible. Yankees invaded since the 1950s. Virginia and North Carolina are effectively lost. Florida, except the panhandle. The Atlanta metro sprawl has effectively denied Georgia. I guess Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Arkansas could be possible if fiscally challenged.

I wouldn't count on Texas. They seem to want to go back to being their own country.

The question becomes who actually give their $$$ to this bird? Grifters don't have to be smart. They just have to be smarter than the marks.

Part of the Yankee invasion was my grandfather from Illinois moving to Georgia in 1919.

There's more racists out there than you think.

 

[Kearny The Magnificent]

Here's another one for the grifter pile: Defending Dixie by Isaac C Bishop. "Bishop" is actually a New England imbecile named Jeb Smith who has shed his regional identity and name to write a piece of neo-Confederate nonsense. You might ask why.

Here's his explanation:

Isaac C Bishop is a lifelong New-Englander who happened to become interested in southern culture. But when he began to earnestly study its history and folklore, he was shocked by what he learned. Thus began an intense multi-year quest to unearth a true story which resulted in Defending Dixie's Land. Should you choose to set aside your preconceived biases and "take the red pill" with the author, you will discover:

• How the United States government was originally meant to function, and by what means that system was usurped in the mid-1800's
• The real reasons the cotton states initially seceded
• The entirely different factors which prompted the upper South to then also secede
• An accurate picture of what life was like for minorities in both the North and South, and, as inherently wrong as the institution of slavery has always been on planet earth, why southern slaves generally viewed their situation as preferable
• Character traits and motives of Abraham Lincoln which shatter the humanitarian hero image painted in our minds
• Eye-opening facts about African-American support for the Confederacy, the history and current status of slavery worldwide, insights into the true enemy of free peoples everywhere, and more.

Defending Dixie by Isaac C Bishop. "Bishop" is actually a New England imbecile named Jeb Smith

"Jeb Smith" sounds much more like a Southern name than "Isaac Bishop."

I view with extreme suspicion, if not outright scorn, anyone who talks about the "red pill" unless they're discussing the merits of Dayquil.
