The Ghosts of Fredricksburg by L.B. Taylor,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Ghosts of Fredricksburg (Paperback)
This book is more of a historical fiction type. It is about ghost encounters in the town of Fredericksburg. While the encounters are not of the authors own, he tells them as though they are.
I enjoy the supernatural. The thought of reading about real ghost encounters intrigued me very much. The ghost encounters can get a little scary for some but it is an enjoyable read. I recommend this book for ages eight through adult. The writers writing style was very interesting. He would do a couple of paragraphs of history on the house or tavern where the encounter took place. Then he would tell how it all started. L.B Taylor also included quotes of the homeowners and their experiences along with past homeowners. He also included what has happened to the house. One of my favorite ghost stories is one where the appeared a headless lady in blue. The community had no records of ghost encounters ever. One night there was a woman standing by her kitchen window doing dishes when she saw a headless lady dressed in blue nineteenth century clothing just kind of floating towards her. Then she just disappeared. At the same time someone else in that development was watching TV on his porch when she just appeared. She stood there standing there and even tough she had no head, she appeared to be staring at him. A minute later she floated through the wall and into the dining room and just disappeared. One of the weaknesses of this book is that sometimes he will have more history in the ghost encounter than the actual experience of the ghost encounter. I thought the book was very good and interesting. I enjoyed reading about the encounters and history of them. The ghost encounters can get a little scary for some but it is an enjoyable read.I even got scared by some of them! I recommend this book for ages 8 through adult.

As all of the other L.B.Taylor books, EXCELLENT!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Ghosts of Fredricksburg (Paperback)
This book was and continues to be excellent. I have to admit I don't like to read very much. Im an audio visual learner and I like to watch movies or do the writting rather than read. These books I have been collecting by Mr. Taylor have turned me into a lover of reading. I would have to say this new book was excellent to me mainly because I have been in many of the areas mentioned in the book as I am from Richmond Va. (a near by environ.) I would love to assist in a future book by sharing some contacts for stories and even some of my own. Thanks, Jason Lacy
