I played a little fiddle at a book signing at the Historic Lotz House in Franklin Tennessee. I play there a lot on Fridays for the tourists as the walk up the veranda. I like playing both tunes together. Which is your favorite?






If you're interested in my novel about the Battle of Island No. you can get it in the links below, or at the Lotz House!

Dixie, of course. (see my name)

We sang the Battle Hymn of the Republic with great vigor in my childhood Methodist Church. I don't think many saw the non-spiritual meaning behind the lyrics. I soon found out the history of the song and decided it wasn't appropriate for church worship and especially not something a pure Southerner should sing. So I hold my tongue when that song comes on.
