About the Book

Used as a Confederate field hospital during the Battle of Franklin II in the fall of 1864, Carnton Plantation played a vital role in the American War for Southern Independence. Nearly 2,000 Confederate soldiers died in and around the home, leaving a psychic imprint of death, violence, fear, pain, and terror etched into its very walls. The result is that today Carnton is not only one of the nation's most important historic homes, it is also Tennessee's most haunted Civil War house. Southern historian and award-winning Tennessee author Lochlainn Seabrook has assembled over a dozen authentic ghost stories associated with Carnton Plantation in an absorbing book that includes a brief history of the home, a Southern look at the Civil War, the family tree of its founders the McGavocks, over 100 illustrations, a "Ghostly Glossary," a comprehensive index and bibliography, suggestions on how to help preserve America's unique Southern heritage, and a complete list of the dead buried at the McGavock Confederate Cemetery in Franklin, Tennessee. Written for all ages, "Carnton Plantation Ghost Stories" is entertaining yet educational, diverting yet gripping, a book that everyone from ghost-hunters to Civil War buffs will want on their shelf. It's one of our top sellers, not only at bookstores, but at Civil War sites, historic house gift shops, and museum stores. Seabrook, a former Carnton tour guide and a relative of the McGavock and Winder families, is the winner of the prestigious Jefferson Davis Historical Gold Medal, awarded by the United Daughters of the Confederacy. Known as the "American Robert Graves" after his celebrated English cousin, Seabrook is the sixth great-grandson of the Earl of Oxford and the author of over thirty popular adult and children's books, including "The McGavocks of Carnton Plantation: A Southern History"; "The Quotable Robert E. Lee"; "The Unquotable Abraham Lincoln"; "Lincolnology: The Real Abraham Lincoln Revealed in His Own Words"; "The Quotable Jefferson Davis"; "A Rebel Born: A Defense of Nathan Bedford Forrest"; "Abraham Lincoln: The Southern View";"Nathan Bedford Forrest: Southern Hero, American Patriot"; and "The Caudills: An Etymological, Ethnological, and Genealogical Study."

About the Author :
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," and by his fans as the "Voice of the Traditional South," 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!"

Review :
In "Carnton Plantation Ghost Stories" Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook does an amazing job of describing each story in such great detail that it not only feels like I am reading the story, but I am in the story. . . . Being the history and paranormal researcher (nerd) that I am, before I read this book I thought I knew about every one of Carnton's supernatural anomalies. Oh how I was mistaken! One thing I really love about "Carnton Plantation Ghost Stories" is that it not only provides narratives of some fascinating other worldly occurrences, but it chronicles the rich history of a place that should never be forgotten." - AUSTIN COOK, team leader of SyFy Channel's hit TV series "Killer Contact". "This book is very spooky and will make an excellent book for brave parents, boys and girls to read after they get their homework done. This book will also make a very good addition to your Civil War or Confederate library with all of the tragic fighting and deaths from the Battle of Franklin. The McGavock Confederate Cemetery occupants are listed in an appendix. This is a very interesting and sad book, as well as a spooky book with ghosts. We give "Carnton Plantation Ghost Stories" our highest rating, a well earned WOW!" - ED PORTER, the Lone Star Book Review. "Great book! Not just for paranormal fans, it has a lot of facts about the South that most books leave out." - SUSAN STARKS. "I love Carton Plantation and this is a great book about it!" - MICHELLE STAMPER. "This is a great book full of stories of the unexplained. I have my copy!" - DIANE STEPHENS WHITE.
