  • - My view on a 150-year old murder
    af Jan Kronsell
    118,95 - 328,95 kr.

    The murder of Laura Foster in 1866 has been the source of many legends and both in fiction and non-fiction it has inspired many authors. The murder, which in the end led to the conviction and execution of Thomas C. Dula, also inspired the famous song, The Ballad of Tom Dooley. In this book I go through the surviving records from the time and tell the story based on these facts, before I try to give my own explanation of what actually happened in Western North Carolina in the difficult times following the American Civil War.

  • - Dette er ikke en rejsebog! Om omveje, afveje, vildveje og andre oplevelser på mine ture i USA og med en del sidespring undervejs
    af Jan Kronsell
    82,95 - 108,95 kr.

    Hvad har René Magritte, Tom Lehrer, Charles M. Schultz og Victor Borge med rejser i USA at gøre? Alt det og meget mere finder du (måske) ud af i denne bog. Bogen handler om rejser I USA, men er ikke en rejsebog i egentlig forstand. Her er ingen anbefalinger af hoteller, restauranter og attraktioner; bortset fra de hoteller, restauranter og attraktioner, som jeg alligevel har valgt at anbefale. Bogen indeholder mere eller mindre interessante (og af og til surrealistiske) oplevelser fra mine bilture i USA med sidespring til helt andre ting undervejs, blandt andet kunstnere, steder i Danmark og meget andet. Kort sagt, alt hvad der faldt mig ind undervejs. Her er historier om dyr, jeg har set, mennesker, jeg har mødt, veje, jeg har kørt på, steder, jeg har boet, steder, som er et besøg værd, selv om de ikke lige ligger i de mest turistbesøgte områder og meget andet.

  • - Another version of the Tom Dooley legend
    af Jan Kronsell
    41,95 - 64,95 kr.

    Who killed Laura Foster? This question has been asked ever since 1866, when she was killed. On May 1st. 1868, a man known as Tom Dooley was hanged for the murder in Statesville in North Carolina. Since the hanging many legends have been told about the case, and many of these tell that Tom Dooley was actually innocent, and that his jealous, married lover, committed the crime. Books have been written about the case, songs have been sung, plays have been performed and even a movie was made, but the question will probably never be answered as, 150 years have passed since the hanging and a couple more since the killing. This novella is just my suggestion of what may have happened in late May 1866 in western Wilkes County, North Carolina. Even if the novella is for large parts based on known and documentable facts, the solution to the riddle is pure fiction.
