With its 100-year history of infant mortality, violence, murder, war, surgical amputations, political intrigue, thousands of ghastly deaths, and a long streak of truly bad luck, it's little wonder that Carnton Plantation is haunted, or that thousands travel each year to visit its hallowed grounds in the hopes of spotting a ghost themselves. What is perhaps more surprising is that no one has thought to chronicle the accounts of Carnton's many ghost stories, and put them in a book for readers of all ages.

With its 100-year history of infant mortality, violence, murder, war, surgical amputations, political intrigue, thousands of ghastly deaths, and a long streak of truly bad luck, it's little wonder that Carnton Plantation is haunted, or that thousands travel each year to visit its hallowed grounds in the hopes of spotting a ghost themselves. What is perhaps more surprising is that no one has thought to chronicle the accounts of Carnton's many ghost stories, and put them in a book for readers of all ages. Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook, a former Carnton tour guide and the author of dozens of popular Civil War books, has rectified this situation by providing us with the first nonfiction book ever written about the goblins of Tennessee's most haunted Civil War house. Carnton Plantation Ghost Stories: True Tales of the Unexplained from Tennessee's Most Haunted Civil War House! is loaded with both fun and serious facts touching on numerous topics, from the American Civil War, plantation life, and Victorian culture, to 19th-Century medicine, genealogy, and slavery. And all is written from the South's point of view, a refreshing perspective that enriches an already fascinating subject: a Southern plantation full of Civil War ghosts! Included is a complete list of the Rebel soldiers buried at the McGavock Confederate Cemetery, over 100 photos and illustrations of paranormal energies, Carnton Mansion, and the grounds, maps of the property, a comprehensive "Ghostly Glossary," a history of both Carnton and the Battle of Franklin II, and factual discussions on Lincoln's War. Additionally, Colonel Seabrook, who is related to the founders and owners of Carnton, has thoughtfully included a family tree for the plantation clan. Entertaining yet educational, diverting yet gripping, this is a book that everyone from ghost-hunters to Civil War buffs will want on their shelf. The foreword is by Austin Cook, team leader of SyFy Channel's hit TV series Killer Contact. Carnton Plantation Ghost Stories is available in paperback and hardcover. Neo-Victorian historian Lochlainn Seabrook, whose literary works range from astronomy to zoology, is one of the most prolific and popular writers in the world today. Known by literary critics as the "new Shelby Foote" and the "American Robert Graves," the Sons of Confederate Veterans member is a Kentucky Colonel, a recipient of the prestigious Jefferson Davis Historical Gold Medal, and the author and editor of nearly 100 scholarly books (currently). Described by his readers as "game changers" and "life-altering," his voluminous writings have introduced hundreds of thousands to vital facts that have been left out of our mainstream books. A 7th generation Kentuckian of Appalachian heritage and the 6th great-grandson of the Earl of Oxford, Col. Seabrook has a 45-year background in American and Southern history, and is the author of the international blockbuster Everything You Were Taught About the Civil War is Wrong, Ask a Southerner! Col. Seabrook's other titles include: Abraham Lincoln Was a Liberal, Jefferson Davis Was a Conservative; Lincoln's War: The Real Cause, the Real Winner, the Real Loser; The Bittersweet Bond: Race Relations in the Old South as Described by White and Black Southerners; Confederate Monuments: Why Every American Should Honor Confederate Soldiers and Their Memorials; All We Ask is to be Let Alone: The Southern Secession Fact Book; North America's Amazing Mammals: An Encyclopedia for the Whole Family; The Concise Book of Owls: A Guide to Nature's Most Mysterious Birds; The Martian Anomalies: A Photographic Search for Intelligent Life on Mars; Victorian Hernia Cures; Vintage Southern Cookbook: 2,000 Delicious Dishes From Dixie; The Great Yankee Coverup; Support Your Local Confederate: Wit and Humor in the Southern Confederacy.
