Appalachian Genesis
Thanks for submitting your book Appalachian Genesis: The Clinch river Valley from Prehistoric Times to the End of the Frontier Era. The ISFDB does list non-fiction book, but only if one or more of the following conditions apply:
- The non-fiction book is about speculative fiction, e.g. SF criticism, biographies of SF writers, etc.
- The non-fiction book is written by an author with a significant body of speculative work
- The non-fiction book has been reviewed in genre magazines
As far as I can tell, we have only one story by Richard Lee-Fulgham on file. Both OCLC and Contento's Index concur, so it would appear that the conditions listed above wouldn't be satisfied. Please let me know if are missing more of your speculative work -- I'll keep the submission on hold for now. Thanks! Ahasuerus 05:08, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

Chronicling a unique place and time in early American history, this is a story of epic proportions, spanning not centuries but millennia, and even epochs, as the river valley is first shaped by nature into a paradise for all living things—then shaped by humans into a war zone where Native American, British, French, Colonial, Tory, and Patriot forces regularly collided in bloody conflicts.
