ANNALS OF THE STUPID PARTY
Republicans Before Trump (The
Wilson Files 3)
By Clyde N. Wilson (10/2016)

IN THIS INSTALLMENT OF THE WILSON
FILES, we turn our attention to Dr. Clyde
Wilson’s collected writings on the “Grand
Old Party.”

Rush Limbaugh recently told his
audience that for years he had been
misled to believe that the Republican
Party was a barrier to the leftist
agenda. He now knows better.

Clyde Wilson has been saying the same
thing for almost half a century.

The Republicans are not a political party
at all, but an electioneering machine. The
dominant elements of the party care
nothing for ideas, principles,
values. They are, as Wilson has
documented through all recent history,
interested only in tactics that they think
will get them the powers and perks of
office. Thus they cannot function and
have never functioned as a conservative
force against leftist innovation.

The behavior of the Republican Establishment in the face of changes in the political arena brought by the
Trump eruption has revealed this for all to see.

Whatever the outcome of the election, Wilson argues, conservatives will have to reform or get rid of the
Republican albatross in order to make any progress in restoring order and preserving the historic American
people.

DIXIE RISING
Rules for Rebels
By James Ronald Kennedy (02/2017)

SINCE THE PUBLICATION OF THEIR
BESTSELLER CLASSIC The South Was
Right! in 1994, the brothers James
Ronald Kennedy and Walter Donald
Kennedy have been recognized
spokesmen for the South. By the South
they do not mean a political position or a
collection of quaint
attitudes. Southerners are a people—and
as a people have a right to be governed by
their free consent. But “at no time since
Appomattox have the freedom, the
heritage, and the culture of the South
been under greater attack.”

The Southern people are in a struggle for
their existence as a people. If things
continue as they have been, we will
lose. In Dixie Rising: Rules for Rebels the
Kennedys propose nothing less than a
radical change of approach to the
struggle—an approach that discards the
losing game of conventional politics. This
book is a field manual for what they call
“irregular political warfare.”

Dixie Rising provides the tools by which
activists can change the current situation
and move towards restoring the original Constitutional federal union of self-governing States that our
forefathers established. If such a program succeeds, it will be a boon not only to Southerners but to all
freedom-loving Americans.

EMANCIPATION HELL
The Tragedy Wrought by
Lincoln's
Emancipation Proclamation
By KIRKPATRICK SALE (12/2015)

EMANCIPATION—FREEING THE
SLAVES—HELL? The Emancipation
Proclamation—one of the sacred icons of
American history—a tragedy? How can
this be?

That was the opinion of Frederick
Douglass, the most important African
American leader of the 19th century,
who proclaimed, “I denounce the so-
called Emancipation.” Douglass wrote: “I
admit that the Negro…has made little
progress from barbarism to civilization,
and that he is in a deplorable condition
since his emancipation. That he is worse
off in many respects, than when he was a
slave, I am compelled to admit…” Indeed,
social statistics of 1900 indicate that
material quality of life was lower for
most black Americans than under
slavery.

Kirkpatrick Sale marshals much
forgotten evidence to cast this glorious
part of American history in a realistic
and critical light. Emancipation, yes. But as a military measure during a cruel war of invasion? Slavery once
existed throughout the Western Hemisphere, but almost everywhere except the United States, it ended
peacefully. Emancipation with no thought or plan for the unprecedented situation to be managed? With no
real sympathy or interest in the people freed except their usefulness in controlling and exploiting the
conquered South? (Some Northern leaders denounced the Proclamation as an atrocity and an estimated
200,000 Northerners deserted or evaded service in a war for African Americans rather than for the “Union.”)
Perhaps never in history, Kirkpatrick Sale demonstrates, has a benevolent act been so tainted with impure
motives and disdain of consequences. Abraham Lincoln has a lot to answer for, says the author. His flawed
proclamation doomed Americans to a century and a half of racial conflict and disparity that is still with us.

Note: This book is reformatted, repackaged, authorized reissued of Kirkpatrick Sale's 2012 self-published book
of the same title.

A LEGION OF DEVILS
Sherman in South Carolina
By Karen Stokes (01/2017)

THE WAR CRIMES committed by General
William T. Sherman and his men against
Southern civilians and their means of
sustaining life are a huge stain on the
American national character. Sherman’s
crimes are routinely denied or minimized
(by those who don’t actually celebrate
them), although they are as heavily
documented, from Northern as well as
Southern sources, as any event in
history. Sherman’s campaign through
Georgia and South Carolina is even cited
as a brilliant military feat. In fact, it was
not a military feat at all. There was very
little fighting. It was a massive campaign
of terrorism against civilians. It violated
international law and hypocritically
deviated widely from officially-declared
U.S. policy.
A LEGION OF DEVILS: SHERMAN IN
SOUTH CAROLINA adds more very
interesting original sources to the
published record of U.S. War Crimes. The
book also features a timeline
documenting most of the significant
incidents of January through March 1865,
when South Carolina’s home front became
a war front for thousands of civilians.

LIES MY TEACHER TOLD ME
The True History of the War for
Southern Independence

By Clyde N. Wilson (01/2016)

IN THIS HARD-HITTING COLLECTION of
4 essays, Dr Wilson cuts straight to the
chase: YOU WERE LIED TO! You were lied
to about the nature, character, and cause
of the American “Civil War," but that is
just the start. The entire South—
its people, culture, history, customs, both
past and present—has been and
continues to be lied about and demonized
by the unholy trinity of the American
establishment: Academia, Hollywood, and
the Media.

In the midst of the anti-South hysteria
currently infecting the American psyche—
the banning of flags, charges of hate and
“racism,” the removal and attempted
removal of Confederate monuments, the
renaming of schools, vandalism of
monuments and property displaying the
Confederate Battle Flag, and even physical
assaults, albeit rarely at present, on
people who display the symbols of the
South—Shotwell Publishing offers this
unapologetic, unreconstructed, pro-South
eBook to the world as a FREE GIFT with
the hope that it will reach those who are left that are not afraid to question the sanity of this cultural purge
and the veracity of its narrative concerning the South.

MARYLAND, MY MARYLAND:
The Cultural Cleansing of a Small
Southern State
By Joyce Bennett (06/2016)

MARYLAND WAS FOUNDED as a
plantation colony like Virginia and its way
of life did not differ greatly from
Virginia’s.

Everybody knows that the “Star-Spangled
Banner” was written by Francis Scott Key
as he watched the British attack on Fort
McHenry in Baltimore harbor during the
War of 1812. But few know that in 1861
Francis Key Howard, the grandson of
Francis Scott Key, wrote this of his
grandfather:

The flag which then he so proudly hailed, I
saw waving at the same place over the
victims as vulgar and brutal a despotism as
modern times have witnessed.

Howard was one of the
many Marylanders who were political
prisoners of Abraham Lincoln, arrested to
prevent the people of Maryland from ever
having an opportunity to vote on
secession.

As soon as Union occupiers departed at the end of the War for Southern Independence, Maryland elected
conservative Southern Democrats to office, a practice that continued well into the 20th century.

Joyce Bennett is a patriot holding a last outpost of the real Maryland. She knows the history and original
culture of her commonwealth. She has watched that pleasant and very American culture — its speech,
manners, cuisine, attitudes, and traditions — being vigourously wiped out by newcomers who have turned
Maryland into a mere minor part of the northeastern megalopolis.

The things sadly lost are the things that constitute civilization and create community.

NULLIFICATION
Reclaiming the Consent of the
Governed (The Wilson Files 2)
By Clyde N. Wilson (08/2016)

IN THIS SECOND INSTALLMENT of The
Wilson Files, we collect some of Dr.
Wilson's most sagacious writings on the
topic of nullification and the
unenumerated rights reserved to the
several sovereign States that comprise
the confederation known as the United
States of America.

For half a century historian Clyde Wilson
has been writing about what he calls “our
lost and stolen heritage of states’ rights.”
As Dr. Donald Livingston, founder of the
Abbeville Institute, has remarked of
current devolutionary strategies, “Clyde
Wilson had been plowing the ground long
before any of us came to plant.”

Excerpts from Nullification: Reclaiming
the Consent of the Governed:

“The cause of states’ rights is the cause of
liberty; they rise or fall together. . . . We
know the problems. Where should we
look for solutions? . . . . Thomas Jefferson
gives us the answer: our most ancient and
best tradition, states’ rights: ‘the support of the State governments in all their rights, as the most competent
administrations for our domestic concerns and the surest bulwarks against anti-republican tendencies’ . . . .
Some of the Founders hoped that the division of legislative, executive, and judicial power in the general
government would help. . . . these checks and balances do not work. They ceased to work a long time ago.
There is no serious conflict of power among the federal branches. The acts of all of them are directed toward
checking the people of the States. . . . States’ rights are historically sound, constitutionally sound, ethically
sound, and sound from the point of view of democracy. Where they fall short is simply in the realm of political
will and agenda. . . . if we are to speak of curbing the central power, the States are what we have got. They
exist. They are historical, political, cultural realities, the indestructible bottom line of the American system. It
would be a shame if, in this world-historical time of devolution, Americans did not look back to an ancient and
honourable tradition that lies readily at hand.”

PUNISHED WITH POVERTY
The Suffering South – Prosperity
to Poverty & the Continuing
Struggle
By James Ronald and Walter Donald
Kennedy (12/2016)

FROM THE AUTHORS OF THE
SOUTHERN CLASSIC THE SOUTH WAS
RIGHT!, comes what Dr. Clyde N. Wilson
has described as “one of the most
important and original histories of the
Southern people.”

The South was destined to be a
prosperous land with a self-governing
people and its own culture. Instead, it is
the most impoverished and powerless
part of the U.S. From the beginning of the
U.S. government in 1789, most
egregiously in the calculated and
malicious destruction by the invader
during 1861-1865 and the looting of
Reconstruction, and by government
action ever since, Southerners, both
black and white, have been the poorest
and most abused Americans. The over-
arching theme of Southern history is not
Race, as is conventionally stated, but
Poverty—poverty not due to the South’s
shortcomings but imposed on them by
the system under which they live.

The Civil War did not end slavery but it did put over 8 million black & white Southerners into the bondage of
poverty. The people of the South were intentionally reduced from the wealthiest in the nation to the poorest
people in the Union.

The Kennedy Twins' important history, however, is only a prelude to what they have to say about
the present and the future of the Southern people, in every way distinct enough to be self-
governing. Southerners, they maintain, must right now get over their good-natured allegiance to an Empire
which holds their well-being and culture in contempt. They must understand their true situation and take
steps, beyond routine political party activities, to restore a government recognizing the rights of State
nullification and secession. Our Southern ancestors knew that these were the only real defense of liberty and
self-government.

SOUTHERN INDEPENDENCE.
WHY WAR?
The War to Prevent Southern
Independence
By Dr. Charles T. Pace; Foreword by
Dr. Clyde N. Wilson, Jr. (10/2015)

THE "AMERICAN CIVIL WAR" WAS NOT A

“CIVIL WAR” AND EVERYONE KNOWS IT,

yet the use of this misleading and
inaccurate designation is almost
universal in the English speaking world.

Dr. Charles T. Pace has been the first to
use a precisely accurate term for the U.S.
“Civil War”---the WAR TO PREVENT
SOUTHERN INDEPENDENCE. In this
work he traces how what he calls the
Northern Money Party preferred war to
allowing the South to get free of its
economic domination. He reveals aspects
of Abraham Lincoln's life and actions that
even Professor Thomas
DiLorenzo missed.

Along the way, reflecting on his long
career as a family physician in North
Carolina, the author describes what was
good in a Southern life shared by blacks
and whites over
many generations.

SOUTHERNER, TAKE YOUR
STAND!
by JOHN VINSON (01/2016)

THE TITLE AND MESSAGE of John
Vinson’s book is one in the same--
Southerner, Take Your Stand!

This is not an empty call to action or
pining for the good ol’ days, but a
practical guide to reclaiming your
identity and your life. Although this book
is specific to Southerners, the discerning
reader will view Vinson’s work as
applicable to any individual, family, or
community that wants to separate
themselves—as far as possible—from
the “Establishment” and get back to the
basics of faith, family, community,
sustainable living, and self-sufficiency.
This road to independence is fraught
with danger and hardships, but the
alternative route is a road to both moral
and material ruin:

“The time is ripe to set a new course of
living and making a living. Southerners
and other Americans must understand
that to depend on the Establishment is to
participate in our own destruction. If we
are to be saved, we must save ourselves
by striking out on our own, a person at a
time, a family at a time, and a community at a time, to build a future worth living as free men and women…. Be
warned that the route to Southern renewal will offer hardship, toil, and difficulty. It will require blazing new
trails while following ancient directions. It is not a mission for weaklings.”

The author’s hope is that this book will “rouse the Southern remnant and provide new ideas for action.”

WASHINGTON'S KKK:
The Union League during
Southern Reconstruction
By John Chodes (05/2016)

THE “OFFICIAL” VERSION OF SOUTHERN
RECONSTRUCTION is that there was a
reign of terror — a systematic murder
and intimidation by the “white Southern
ruling class” who were determined to
keep free people of colour in a virtual
state of slavery. The real picture is a
good deal more complicated.

One can find plenty of material about
conflict, intimidation, and killing in
America during the period 1865-1877;
but the Marxist class conflict formulary
of history — also known as Political
Correctness — takes for granted
as fact what is clearly
partisan propaganda of the time. They
never ask the essential factual and moral
question: Who initiated violence? John
Chodes shows that the violence was
begun by the Republicans through the
establishment of the Union League.

The Union League was a Northern
organisation with the mission of
maintaining the illegal and undemocratic
control of the Republican Party in the South. Its mobs of Black “militia” led by Carpetbaggers engaged in
intimidation, theft, harassment of the innocent, and murder. They deliberately provoked violent response.
Their coercion was directed not only at whites, but towards the freedmen who refused to support the
Republican regime. In other words, the Union League used the methods of the Ku Klux Klan before the Klan
came into existence.

This book tells the shocking story of this long forgotten chapter in American history — the story of the Union
League.

WHEN THE YANKEES COME:
Former South Carolina Slaves
Remember Sherman's Invasion
Edited with Introduction by PAUL C.
GRAHAM (02/2016)

MANY AMERICANS BELIEVE that the
coming of the blue soldiers of the North,
emissaries of emancipation, was a joyful
event for African Americans. Nothing
could be further from the truth.

How do we know this? Because we have
their recorded accounts.

Ending slavery, contrary to self-
congratulatory American myth, was not a
righteous crusade. It was a by-product of
a brutal war of conquest and invasion—a
total war against civilians in which black
Southerners suffered as much if not more
than whites. The devastation of the
people’s resources in large areas of the
South left African Americans as well as
Southern whites suffering and sometimes
starving. For many, it was an experience
of fear, disruption of life, and cruel
uncertainty about their future, to which
the liberators had given no thought.

The material gathered by Paul C. Graham
makes this clear. Of late, Americans have had a taste for history by theory: The War Between the States was
“about” slavery. A better understanding comes from seeing what the people who were there have to say about
it. Such an approach to history as human experience can be both informative and enlightening.

THE YANKEE PROBLEM
An American Dilemma (The
Wilson Files 1)
By Clyde N. Wilson (07/2016)

GRANNY CLAMPETT, on the TV
sitcom The Beverly Hillbillies, described
the War Between the States as “when the
Yankees invaded America” and, indeed, it
was!

Their invasion of America, however, goes
back much farther than the conflict of
1861-1865. It began as soon as they
dropped their anchor in Plymouth Bay.
Since that time, they have meddled,
cheated, and lied their way into every
nook and cranny of American life.

The Southern people warned others
about the radical utopians of New
England, and even went to war to get
away from them, but to no avail. Now all
Americans, not just Southerners, are
subject to the whims of “those people”
and their never ending mission to
recreate, not only America, but the entire
world in their bizarre, sanctimonious
image.

Dr. Clyde Wilson, in this first installment
of The Wilson Files, takes the Yankee problem head-on. After decades of historical research and personal
observation, he exposes and explains these pesky purveyors of mischief and mayhem!

If you want to understand America, American History, and the upside-down dystopian nightmare in which we
all live, you have to understand the problem.

We do not have an economic problem, a race problem, a class problem, a gender problem, a toilet access
problem, a drug problem, a gun problem, or any other ideological or social problem at the root of America’s
dysfunctional anti-culture – we have a Yankee problem!

A NEW ENGLAND ROMANCE

and Other Southern Stories

By Randall Ivey (Green Altar Books,
09/2016)

DON'T LET THE TITLE of this book fool
you, this collection of short stories by
Randall Ivey is Southern through and
through.

Set in the upcountry of South Carolina in
the fictitious County of Compton, Ivey's
stories introduce us to a cast of
memorable characters. From the bookish
and idealistic Jane Poage who falls for a
handsome New England thespian, to the
eleven-year-old minister and faith-healer
Reverend Benny Troy Hoyt, to the peculiar,
yet misunderstood Yankee high school
chorus teacher, Mrs. Stratton, Ivey's
stories are certain to shock, entertain, and
perhaps even move one to tears.

If you have ever "visited" William
Faulkner's Yoknapatawpha County, or
"passed through" James Kibler's Clay Bank
County, you will most certainly want to
add Ivey's Compton County to your
literary travel itinerary.

EDITORIAL REVIEWS:
"Randall Ivey manages, quite implausibly, to marry the grace, delicacy, and devotion to manners of Henry
James with the dark-hued, confessional Americana of Sherwood Anderson.... With this collection, Ivey takes
his place as a significant voice in the great tradition of Southern narrative." -Jim Clark

"Don't be fooled. There is more to these comic stories than comedy. Beneath the laughter the tear of sympathy
is always present." -James Everett Kibler

TILLER
(Clay Bank County IV)
By James Everett Kibler (01/2017)

Tiller is set in upcountry South Carolina
in the year 2008. Its chief character, who
has just turned sixty, is doing what he can
to maintain a sane life in and for his farm
community in a time that is seriously out
of joint. After the tragic loss of his wife
two decades ago, Chauncey still lives
alone on his family farm, but has slowly
rejoined the world. It is his ties to the
land and the members of his community
that aid in the healing process.

Tiller details this coming back to
normalcy through his primary
friendships with Kildee and Bess
Henderson, Clint Blair (his dead wife’s
brother) and Trig Tinsley, a childhood
friend who has had his own
problems. These are characters met in
Kibler’s three previous novels set in this
same community: Memory’s Keep (which
takes place in 1975), Walking Toward
Home (set in 2003), and The Education
of Chauncey Doolittle (set the year
before in 2007).

A new character, Dana Oxner, now
divorced, returns home from corporate
life in Charlotte seeking normalcy as well. Both she and Chauncey have scars that still need healing and
together find solace in one another. In many ways the novel inverts the plot of Thomas Hardy’s famous tragic
novel, The Return of the Native.

Tiller can be read alone, but achieves richness and complexity from its three predecessors. It thus forms the
cap and final volume of a full tetralogy. Few such literary accomplishments are to be found in modern
literature.
