Too much eggnog??? :bounce: I still haven't yet figured out photo posting here (it's different on every forum I frequent!).

I received a fascinating chart "History of the Civil War in the United States" which I haven't yet studied in detail but is a reproduction of an old chart. I also received an 8 CD set of James McPherson's War on the Waters: The Union and Confederate Navies , 1861-1865, which I'll start listening to on my way home from Seattle tomorrow. Vaguely related to the CW period (since it would have been read, certainly by young ladies, during that time), the Complete Novels of Jane Austen, to replace my old paperback which was in shreds and missing big chunks of the first and last novels. This version is hardback, beautifully printed, in a slipcase and with a lovely ribbon as a bookmark. Interestingly, the new book actually costs less (on amazon.com, seen when I added it to my wish list) than what I paid for the paperback 2o years ago!
