LONDON: PRINTED FOR EDWARD AND CHARLES DILLY, IN THE POULTRY. MDCCLXXV [1775] James Adair set out to prove his theory that the Indians were lineal descendants of the Lost Tribes of Israel. This descent,'' Adair writes, "I shall endeavor to prove from their religious rites. civil and martial customs,their marriages, funeral ceremonies, manners, language, traditions and a variety of particulars." Devoting the first half of his book to proving this theory, he provides no less than twenty~three "arguments" that will astonish and fascinate the reader.

DJ has wear, soiling, edge tears and chips. Reinhardt University is a liberal arts university located in Waleska, Georgia. In 1883, former Confederate Army Captain and Atlanta lawyer Augustus M. Reinhardt and his brother-in-law, former Lieutenant-Colonel John J. A. Sharp, commenced plans to open a school in Waleska. Both Reinhardt and Sharp had grown up in the Waleska area, and after the American Civil War had ended and the hardships of Reconstruction begun, both men wanted to provide a school for the local citizens of impoverished Cherokee County. deciding to start the school with Reinhardt, he purchased a local saw mill and hired men in preparation to start construction on school buildings. In 1884, with the Methodist Conference answering Reinhardt's request by sending Emory College graduate Rev. James T. Linn as the school's first teacher, Reinhardt Academy opened for classes in an old cabinet and wood shop located at the southern edge of Waleska. The school had been named in honor of Reinhardt's father, Lewis W. Reinhardt, who had settled in the area in 1833 and had established a local church known as Reinhardt Chapel. This is a story of people who left Virginia to settle in Salacoa Valley in Cherokee County, Georgia. The community they founded was called "Little Virginia." They were a people who experienced all the joys and sorrows of pioneers--a people who had the courage to follow where duty called and who never wavered, no matter what fates had in store for them. In this story may be found the finest traits of that noble breed of people who are best known as Scotch-Irish and who settled in every section of America. Written years ago, this manuscript recently came to light and was recommended for publication by Reinhardt College. This is a true-to-life story dealing with hardships, romance, and greed. Character delineation is excellent. The author's treatment of the Civil War is objective and compassionate. The Editor was a former President of Reinhardt University.
