In this stunning revelation of a compelling historical mystery, Paul Argentini's story-telling masterstroke, The Fourth Nail, is in the overlay of the interrelated actions of two men born two millennia apart. In ancient times, we follow the destined path of Marius of Rome from his start as a profligate youth, to the Mid-east where he forges and uses The Fourth Nail to change the entire world forever. His challenge is to leave the love of his life and survive the dangerous journey on the Spice Trail back to Rome where he is determined to hide this all-powerful relic from covetous hands and to fulfill pledges. In today's world, Dr. Roberto Donadio as a matter of life and death desperately seeks to reveal the secrets of the Marius Diary. In his search he is constrained to unravel arcane codes, and translate ancient documents. It is a race against time as he travels the path of the Marius Diary on the Silk Road to an ancient lamasery past the Taklamaken Desert deep by Ancient Turkestan in Eastern China. There, before other horror-stricken witnesses, he sees the only copy of the Marius Diary Scrolls become lost forever to the winds and wilds of the mountains. Only his prescience and ingenuity enable him to learn the factual truth behind this, the greatest of all historical mysteries. This is Paul Argentini's most tense and exciting novel ever.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePage Count: 214\u003cbr\u003eTrim Size: 5.5 x 8.5\u003cbr\u003ePublish Date: January 1, 2012\u003cbr\u003eImprint: Milford House\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Historical","brand":"Paul Argentini","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":32912421912669,"sku":"9781620060209","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0294\/8484\/3101\/products\/FourthNail.jpg?v=1603217464"},{"product_id":"preston-nuttall-the-amish37-582-43-manual","title":"The Amish Rebel","description":"\u003cp\u003eby \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sunbury-press-books.myshopify.com\/collections\/preston-nuttall\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ePreston Nuttall\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Amish Rebel:A Story of War and Faith and the men of the Confederate States Naval Academy\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"LEFT\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFall, 1861.

He has been groomed to handle the business end of his father's large cotton plantation. A deeply religious lad with an uncharacteristic aversion to slavery, James's father raised him to believe that unlike other negroes, the workers on Langdon Plantation were sharecroppers and not slaves. When James finds out that his father has deceived him, it sets up a conflict between the two men that takes a war to settle. When hostilities break out in 1861, he leaves home, ostensibly to serve the Southern cause. Instead, he embarks on his own mission to help slaves escape to Canada. Now considered to be a traitor and an outlaw by the South, danger is his constant companion; certain death awaits him should he be caught. Although he is powerless to go against his conscience, he is equally ridden with guilt for turning his back on his heritage.

It denied the Confederacy free access to the Mississippi River, it split the South in two, and, perhaps most importantly, it ultimately persuaded Abraham Lincoln to appoint Grant commander of all Union armies. In the words of the sixteenth president: “I can’t spare this man. He fights.” \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIt may be inaccurate to say that Grant won the Civil War for the North, but there is truth in the claim. His success, first in the west and later in the east, was phenomenal. Was he a military genius? Probably not. But he had a keen sense for the opportunistic moment and the fortitude to pursue a course of action relentlessly, once chosen. The Taking of Lady Gibraltar illustrates these qualities—and some shortcomings—in an exciting and stimulating read for anyone who loves Civil War history and historical fiction.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003ePage Count: 452\u003cbr\u003eTrim Size: 6 x 9\u003cbr\u003ePublish Date: August 1, 2016\u003cbr\u003eImprint: Milford House\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Historical","brand":"Dick Schwirian","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":32912428793949,"sku":"9781620066508","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0294\/8484\/3101\/products\/tlg_fc.jpg?v=1603217763"},{"product_id":"john-timmerman-my-brother462-158-236-manual","title":"My Brother's Mountain","description":"by \u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/sunbury-press-books.myshopify.com\/collections\/john-timmerman\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eJohn Timmerman\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDavey O'Brien and his friends are just trying to get through seventh grade at the Calumet \u0026amp; Hecla school for miners' children.  But trouble won't leave them alone.  Conflict with the \"townies\", sons and daughters of mine bosses and store owners, is one thing.  But then the miners go on strike, food becomes scarce during awful winter storms, and life itself grows uncertain as the miners square off against the owners' vigilante thugs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePage Count: 160\u003cbr\u003eTrim Size: 5.5 x 8.5\u003cbr\u003ePublish Date: August 31, 2016\u003cbr\u003eImprint: Brown Posey\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Literary","brand":"John Timmerman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":32912428859485,"sku":"9781620067093","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0294\/8484\/3101\/products\/mbm_fc.jpg?v=1603217766"},{"product_id":"jess-steven-hughes-the-br469-151-263-manual","title":"The Broken Lance","description":"by \u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/sunbury-press-books.myshopify.com\/collections\/jess-steven-hughes\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eJess Steven Hughes\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBritannia Romanus series: Volume 4\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" face=\"Bookman Old Style, serif\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIn Rome, when shaking hands with a stranger, you’d best count your fingers to see if they are still attached.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" face=\"Bookman Old Style, serif\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" size=\"3\"\u003eIn 44 AD ancient Britannia is wild, unpredictable, and merciless.

Despite the historic figures of the 1930s who stood in the way of Long John’s (and some of his colleagues) success, this man had the perseverance to rise above the injustices and become the best person he could be, not just on the running field, but also in life itself...The author’s penchant for sharing a good story shines through this riveting novel of life, racial disparity and history that continually repeats itself.\" - \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEmily-Jane Hills Orford, award-winning author of award-winning author of Queen Mary’s Daughter and Mrs. Murphy’s Ghost\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eby \u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.sunburypress.com\/collections\/david-orange\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eDavid Orange\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePage Count: 236\u003cbr\u003eTrim Size: 6 x 9\u003cbr\u003ePublish Date: September 25, 2020\u003cbr\u003eImprint: Milford House Press\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Sports \/ Historical \/ African American\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFICTION\/African American\/Historical\u003cbr\u003eFICTION\/Historical\/World War II\u003cbr\u003eFICTION\/Sports\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"David Orange","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":32916556972125,"sku":"9781620063873","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0294\/8484\/3101\/products\/LJ_fc2.jpg?v=1603660908"},{"product_id":"the-sign-of-the-eagle","title":"The Sign of the Eagle","description":"by \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sunbury-press-books.myshopify.com\/collections\/jess-steven-hughes\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eJess Steven Hughes\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBritannia Romanus series: Volume 1\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis breathtaking historical novel of action and suspense is set in the year 71 A.D. amid the exotic and vibrant streets of Ancient Rome.

Based on twenty years of intense research, the author suggests that all is not as it appears. The real motivation behind the doctor’s decision to murder Van Dorn is not a story of jealousy between a husband and wife, but of loyalty and sacrifice. This story reveals one woman’s struggle with the blame for another’s crime and the secret that fractured the Peters family forever. Perhaps most compelling is the impact the tragedy has had on the Peters family, with the continued perpetuation of the 150 year old lie to this day.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eby \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.sunburypress.com\/collections\/bridget-smith\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eBridget Smith\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/a\u003ePage Count: 336\u003cbr\u003eTrim Size: 5.5 x 8.5\u003cbr\u003ePublish Date: May 26, 2015\u003cbr\u003eImprint: Milford House\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Historical\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFiction \/ Historical\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bridget Smith","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":32944711303261,"sku":"9781620065983","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0294\/8484\/3101\/products\/wef_fc.jpg?v=1606498982"},{"product_id":"high-passes","title":"High Passes","description":"by \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sunbury-press-books.myshopify.com\/collections\/john-timmerman\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eJohn Timmerman\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBen McCallister returns to the peaceful valley where he grew up, only to find it torn apart in a range war.  With lies and deceit on every side, who can he trust?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePage Count: 158\u003cbr\u003eTrim Size: 5.5 x 8.5\u003cbr\u003ePublish Date: September 12, 2015\u003cbr\u003eImprint: Milford House Press\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Western","brand":"John Timmerman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":32944859185245,"sku":"9781620066140","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0294\/8484\/3101\/products\/hp_fc.jpg?v=1606505953"},{"product_id":"the-cogan-legend","title":"The Cogan Legend","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Calibri\"\u003eThe Cogan, a mysterious stretch of Pennsylvania with towering hills, swooping trees and narrow roads, claims the life of a lovely young woman, best friend to Ann Fairchild, a passionate, headstrong girl of 18.  Barely escaping with her life, Ann succumbs to shock and is unable to recall exactly what happened that cold, wintry day in the Cogan.

Luckily, they carry with them dreams for better lives, affection for family, the seeds of good wine, and the strains of enchanting music—an invitation to share in the magic of love in all its forms.\" - \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKathleen Shoop, award-winning author of historical and women's fiction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\"\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eFrom Ashes to Song\u003c\/em\u003e enticed me with its pleasurably beautiful prose.

The love story of talented Pietro and honey voiced Assunta, inspired by true events, is a quintessential immigrant story. But it is also the tale of two lovers who cross paths only to be separated again and again against the backdrop of hard life of coal miners of Pennsylvania. Pietro’s melodies for Assunta kept me magnetized as much as their love amidst scarcity, and at the end, the musical threads coalesced into one poignant and powerful scene like the crescendo of an unforgettable symphony.\" - \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMadhu B.
