The year 2002 marked the 250th anniversary of the birth of General George Rogers Clark. In celebrating Clark's life, this book presents new information and new interpretations of his impact upon the settlement of Kentucky and his control of the Old Northwest Territories. The co-editors— who include traditional historians, social historians, and revisionists—include new details not previously published or found within a single source to bring Clark research into the new century.Thirteen experts on various aspects of Clark's life and achievements go beyond his military career as a Revolutionary War hero and frontier Indian fighter to detail the whole of his accomplishments. They address his tragedies along with his triumphs in a refreshingly balanced portrayal. Specific topics of interest include Clark's settlement at Fort Jefferson, the myths surrounding his love life, his management of the Kentucky/Ohio Valley frontier, and a collection of portraiture art never before gathered in one volume.

During George Rogers' junior campaign he rushed for 1,681 yards. After that season, Rogers was given Second Team All-America Honors by the Associated Press, National Editorial Alliance, United Press International, American Football Coaches, and Football News. In 1980, the stage was set when the Gamecocks returned plenty of talent, which was headlined by senior and Heisman candidate Rogers. While South Carolina's 8-3 record was good, Rogers' final season was better. His 1,781 yards was the best in the nation and earned him a spot as a finalist for the Heisman Trophy.

A tasty, powerhouse blend.G.A.R. is a medium to full-bodied, full-flavored treat from George Rico that captures the bold nuances of his earlier creations, including Gran Habano and the top-rated 3 Siglos. Each cigar is carefully hand-crafted using beautiful Ecuadorian Corojo wrappers and a vintage mixture of Nicaraguan long-fillers. Construction is top-notch: the cigar is heavy in the hand and boasts a lovely Spanish box-press finish. The smoke is rich with roasted coffee flavors supported by a creamy core of tasty tobacco flavors. Smooth down to the nub, G.A.R. becomes more intense throughout the burn, becoming quite complex and ultimately satisfying. Minimize

Finishing School (1934) Frances Dee, Billie BurkeDirectors: George Nichols Jr., Wanda TuchockCo-stars: Ginger Rogers, Bruce Cabot, Beulah Bondi73 minutes, Black and WhiteDVD-R: Region ALLAnother girls' school pranks-to-pregnancy picture stemming from the successes of MAEDCHEN IN UNIFORM (1932) and EIGHT GIRLS IN A BOAT (1934), with comedy, pathos, bathos, and a few songs. This one bombed badly at the time of its release despite a strong cast and the presence of Rogers who, as the sophisticated, wise-cracking roommate of poor-little-rich-girl heroine Dee, got the scene-stealing role and played it brilliantly. Rogers' espoused philosophy--get away with whatever you can, just don't get caught--attunes well with that of the principal of the exclusive school, Bondi, and her pedantic minions, who wish above all else to avoid scandal. Dee's unhappiness--she contemplates suicide--is justified in conventional sociological terms by the inept foster-parenting of the snobbish school's staff and by her relative abandonment by her indifferent father, Halliday, and her social-climbing mother, Burke. Dee's depression is allayed somewhat by the jolly camaraderie of her schoolmates and by her interest in Cabot, a hospital intern and part-time waiter, and an unlikely choice as the juvenile. (He might have been either hero or heavy from his appearance and charisma in virtually any role he played.)  Following the romance and the mandatory pregnancy, all ends well, with Dee wedding the poor-but-honest Cabot and finding a chance for middle-class happiness.

 “Gorgeous George” Sisler, a left-handed first baseman, began his major-league baseball career in 1915 with the St. Louis Browns. During his sixteen years in the majors, he played with such baseball luminaries as Ty Cobb (who once called Sisler “the nearest thing to a perfect ballplayer”), Babe Ruth, and Rogers Hornsby. He was considered by these stars of the sport to be their equal, and Branch Rickey, one of baseball’s foremost innovators and talent scouts, once said that in 1922 Sisler was “the greatest player that ever lived.”During his illustrious career he was a .340 hitter, twice achieving the rare feat of hitting more than .400. His 257 hits in 1920 is still the record for the “modern” era. Considered by many to be one of the game’s most skillful first basemen, he was the first at his position to be inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame. Yet unlike many of his peers who became household names, Sisler has faded from baseball’s collective consciousness.Now in The Sizzler, this “legendary player without a legend” gets the treatment he deserves. Rick Huhn presents the story of one of baseball’s least appreciated players and studies why his status became so diminished. Huhn argues that the answer lies somewhere amid the tenor of Sisler’s times, his own character and demeanor, the kinds of individuals who are chosen as our sports heroes, and the complex definition of fame itself.In a society obsessed with exposing the underbellies of its heroes, Sisler’s lack of a dark side may explain why less has been written about him than others. Although Sisler was a shy, serious sort who often shunned publicity, his story is filled with its own share of controversy and drama, from a lengthy struggle among major-league moguls for his contractual rights—a battle that helped change the structure of organized baseball forever—to a job-threatening eye disorder he developed during the peak of his career and popularity.By including excerpts from Sisler’s unpublished memoir, as well as references to the national and international events that took place during his heyday, Huhn reveals the full picture of this family man who overcame great obstacles, stood on high principles, and left his mark on a game he affected in a positive way for fifty-eight years.

Why should we know the name William Clark of the Lewis and Clark Expedition and not know the name George Rogers Clark older brother of William? It was through the elder brother's recommendation that Thomas Jefferson assigned William Clark to explore the northern portion of the Louisiana Purchase. George Rogers Clark was the genius of that enterprising Clark family. He was the Clark of another Northwest who won all the area from Pittsburgh to the source of the Mississippi. But for George Clark the borders of Canada might be on the Ohio and Allegheny Rivers. He was also a brilliant officer in Washington's Army. This is the story of George Rogers Clark, a most fascinating and brilliant man. Illustrated. Contents: Background; Formative Years; Into His Own; High Action; Vision Fulfilled; Maps. Minimize
