Cleburne County is strategically located between the two major cities of Birmingham and Atlanta. Once a part of Benton County, Cleburne County was officially created in 1866 by the Alabama legislature and named in honor of Gen. Patrick R. Cleburne, who served the Confederacy during the Civil War. The Talladega National Forest covers the western half of the county and includes Mount Cheaha, the highest point in the state. Cleburne County gained national notoriety in the 1840s when gold was discovered around Arbacoochee, which became one of the largest mining towns in the state. Over $5 million in gold was mined there. In the early 1900s, the area's mild climate and rich soil drew several hundred settlers from northern states who came to Cleburne County and established a wine-producing colony, Fruithurst, which produced as much as 23,000 gallons per year.

Chambers County, created in 1832, embraces the southernmost hills and streams of the Piedmont Plateau and sections of the Chattahoochee River to the east and the Tallapoosa River to the west. Cotton cultivation and textile manufacturing propelled the trajectory of the first 150 years in the county. Images of America: Chambers County presents an array of images of places and people who began life on the frontier, created local government, experienced Native American uprising, served in the Civil War and two world wars, cultivated thousands of productive acres with ox and mule, organized towns, constructed railroads, and built one of the nation's largest textile operations. This bounty of photographs, most of which was provided from family collections, furthers an understanding of the unique story of Chambers County in the ongoing development of the American experience.

Don’t be fooled by the soft fairy tale beginning of this work, When an Angel Falls, as it offers you another theory on how we all came into existence. Because of the current calamitous state of the world that suffers from an obvious racial divide and a drastic decline in moral fortitude, there is a clear distinction between good and evil. From the Kremlin in Russia that undermined the democracy of the Western world, to the ISIS demonic plague that is wreaking havoc in Levant in the Middle East as well as in selective countries around the world, Satan and his demons appear to be tapping into a series of triangulations, using the social network, spearfishing tactics, and dog whistling conversion methods. This triangulation starts at the point of 2 billion social media followers, followed by a seven-step breakdown to the mark of the beast. This would be explained in detail in the story should you choose to read it. The end of the world’s cycle is fast approaching. This has prompted God to send his three “Top” angels, Gabriel, Raphael, and Michael, the Archangel, who is leading the team, to earth. They are on an assignment for Him! They would literally and physically destroy and rip apart anything that tries to derail their mission to right the wrong on the earth. Stephan Smith, a morally, insightful man of faith, was touched by the angel Gabriel, and he, along with journalist Christopher Rogers, and detective Danny Stone, forms a team in California to shut down a series of wrongdoing perpetrated by white supremacists in an effort to disrupt Satan’s major diabolical plot. Thousands of miles away in London, England, Carla Wallace, a lawyer, who is accompanied by her cousin, Sandra Wright, who has the same moral strength and faith, was touched by the angel Raphael, and they, along with Brent Russell, an MI-5 agent, team up to stop a series of events designed to change the world as we know it. Dunstan Archer, who worked as an elderly caretaker in Cleburne County, Alabama, was incarnated as Andrealphus, one of Lucifer’s fallen angels. After Lucifer and his selective angels took up residence on the earth, Andrealphus soon realized that he was caught up in the politics and evil conspiracies of the day. Once he realized that he made a mistake, he decided to flee with hopes of getting back into God’s good graces. He and both of his friends, Dr. Angela Romano and Julian Bates, took an adventurous trip to the Great Angel Falls of South America, Venezuela in order to assist Sam Watson his mentor, who was incarnated by Gabriel. Every effort had to be made to defuse the dark angel’s plot. Filled with riveting, heart-stopping twists and turns, this tale is an eye-opener and a page-turner!
