Riverside: The Restoration of A Way of Life, Exploring the History of a 19th Century Farm on the Ohio River. Published in 1998, this generously illustrated volume traces Riverside's story from its earliest settlement through the establishment of a prosperous farm and active riverboat landing. Along the way, it shares the memories of flood and ruin, and finally restoration. Just as the mighty Ohio River drew the Farnsley and Moremen families to farm its rich land, it now draws thousands of visitors a year to learn about life along the river. Take home this fascinating tale of the property's history coupled with the chronicle of continuing efforts to interpret that history for modern visitors by ordering your copy today.

Riverside Receipts. Published in 1999, this attractive booklet reproduces favorite Moremen family recipes collected in the late 19th century by Nannie Storts Moremen (1856-1934). The recipes were originally recorded by hand in an unassuming notebook. This reproduction of recipes--or "receipts" to use the terminology of the period--is not designed to be a cookbook. Instead, it is designed to provide you with a small slice of the past, morsels to feed your curiosity about one of the most intimate aspects of everyday life.
