    E-books made their debut about a decade ago, with confident predictions that paper pages would soon be considered quaint. Imagine a device called a "reader," about the size of a Danielle Steele novel, which could hold up to 20 volumes.

General Washburn's Escape Alley is name after Cadwallader Colburn Washburn, who, according to legend, escape down that alley during a daring raid by Nathan Bedford Forrest.
