Walter Alley and Related Families of The Tennessee Valley: A Collection of Genealogies, begins with the earliest known ancestors of this lineage, Walter Alley and his wife, Jane Gilliland. It identifies their known descendants and related families - many are identified with the Tennessee Valley. There are fourteen parts in the book with each representing the lineage of an ancestor or related family. Those families are: Alley, Arendt, Brown, Cox, Dame, Gilliland, Hawk, Jones, Kelly, McMahan, Oyler, Ridley, Schoolfield, and Wilson. Most of these parts are expanded to include many other lines, i.e., Bennett, Crawford, Davis, Gay, Goble, Graham, Greene, Grider, Gunter, Jennings, Loyd, Martin, Pettus, Rankin, Russell, Shepherd, Smith, and Wimberly. Connections between parts and various families are shown by cross-references. Collecting and organizing this vast amount of information occurred over a period of thirty-five years. It represents the efforts of many family historians who shared their carefully preserved memorabilia with the author to assure memories of their families would never fade. All contributors are identified, some within the text while others are shown in endnotes. More than sixty-five hundred indexed names were accumulated as a result of the combined efforts of everyone involved. Hopefully, the expanded Foreword and Introdution sections will enhance the readability of this review. The Foreword defines and describes the book's organization and presentation. The Introduction attempts to create an awareness in the reader of conditions immigrants faced in their country of orgin as well as those they encountered immediately upon arrival and settlement in America. Memories of families diminish with each passing generation. The focus of this review is to preserve those cherished thoughts by connecting our present families with those of the past and bridge the gap between us, our forefathers, and future generations; hopefully, this endeavor provides that venue.

The Standards of Conduct Office of the Department of Defense General Counsel's Office has assembled an "encyclopedia" of cases of ethical failure for use as a training tool. These are real examples of Federal employees who have intentionally or unwittingly violated standards of conduct. Some cases are humorous, some sad, and all are real. Some will anger you as a Federal employee and some will anger you as an American taxpayer. Note the multiple jail and probation sentences, fines, employment terminations and other sanctions that were taken as a result of these ethical failures. Violations of many ethical standards involve criminal statutes. This updated (end of 2009) edition is organized by type of violations, including conflicts of interest, misuse of Government equipment, violations of post-employment restrictions, and travel.
