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 Carntons 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 Channels 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.
