My Book
 
I know there are a few guys on here that are interested in the Civil War so I thought I would post a link to my book on Amazon. By no means am I expecting anyone to purchase it but if you think it looks interesting and purchase it, I would be glad to sign it if you send it to me.

My copy will be here next Wednesday. And I'll take you up on the offer to sign it - thanks! It does look to be interesting.

A friend of my wife who I also know has authored several Civil War books of which I have collected (signed also).

Thanks,

Ron

I may have to pick up a copy. I read the first few pages on amazon and it is very interesting. Looks like a good read.

Will you be releasing it to kindle/nook format? The only way I read books anymore is with my iPad. It is just easier to add notes/highlight.

Not sure. I can get a hold of my publisher and ask them.

Thank you. I have a degree in history and political science. Since finding a job in the area of study I'm interested in (civil war) is pretty much impossible I did the next best thing I could think of to stay relevant in the field.

By any chance would you know a guy named Jim Flook? I worked with him at Gettysburg and he did a bunch of history graduate work at UF. Thats awesome your getting your PHD. I thought about it but hated the thought of being in school for so many years. Southern history is awesome, so many things to study.
