I wanted to provide my readers with an update on my whereabouts this week. We are on our family vacation at Table Rock Lake, in the Ozark Mountains. I’ve been fishing and scuba diving, but I’ve only posted one article in the past several days, a very interesting look at the 17th Indiana Infantry Regiment, of Wilder’s Lightning Brigade, I do however, have a couple other articles I am working on.
Late this week, I will be publishing my review of “The State of Jones,” a wonderful narrative of Jones County, Mississippi during the Civil War, and Reconstruction. I interviewed authors Sally Jenkins and John Stauffer recently, and the ten part interview will be part of the review on “The State of Jones.” The interview was fascinating and I am certain you will enjoy listening to it.
For the remainder of the week, I am going scuba diving a couple more times and I hope to finish James Hessler’s much anticipated book, “Sickles at Gettysburg.” Keep posted for a review on it during the next couple of weeks. Additionally I will publish a review/interview with Earl J. Hess about his soon-to-be-released book, “In the Trenches of Petersburg: Field Fortifications and Confederate Defeat.”
Take care, and have a great week!
