At the turn of the 20th century a simple farmer in rural East Tennessee spent 40 nights in the woods only to emerge with the announcement that he had received visions about the future. Those who knew him couldn't even remotely understand the magnitude of what he was trying to say using the primitive language common in that day. Yet the fulfillment of those visions came to be called "the greatest accomplishment of the 20th century." Sells for $9.95.

Comments from One Reader
"Very interesting and pulled me through to the finish.  Not many books do that for me.  You are a skilled writer.  I was already reading a book detailing the development of atomic bombs, and this dovetailed nicely with it." ~ Jim W. from AL

Robertsville is an historical novel based on the true story of a small east Tennessee farm community whose sacrifices led to the "greatest accomplishment of the 20th century."  While the primitive lifestyle of its people insulated them from the world progress around them, one of their farmers became known as "The Prophet" after he announces he has had visions about the future.  After shaken by this prophetic anomaly moral corruption invades their peaceful land with uninvited moonshine stills forcing them to find ways of maintaining their long-time traditional standards.  After the prophet's death, the drama continues as his misdirected son Curtis struggles turbulently with demons of his own.  Suddenly, the community faces a WWII crisis uncommon to any other citizens in the continental US. $15.95.
