There seems to be a never ending of things to write about the civil war. Do you think that there might be new information that could change what the facts are in regards to what would become the truth?

True - the scary thing is because of the sesquicentennial - there's going to be quite a few books coming out to cash in on the moment - tough thing is separating the wheat from the chaff

I read a lot of books that are set in the Civil War. Some non-fiction and some fiction. I appreciate the link! Right now I'm reading one that is fiction called Blue Asylum that I wasn't sure would have a lot of Civil War background in it, but it turned out to be pretty good.

You're very welcome. And I know what you mean - looking for something new on Gettysburg - like "How The Fleas On The Cavalry's Horses Snatched Victory From Defeat" or some such .

Still waiting for Rheas last book on the Wilderness campaign....

Amen, Will - His whole set is considered THE FINAL WORD

Battle Of The Wilderness, The - May 5 - 6, 1964

Battles For Spotsylvania Court House & Road To Yellow Tavern

Cold Harbor - Grant & Lee - May 26 - June 3,1864

To The North Anna River - Grant & Lee - May 13 - 25,1864

on the campaign. Actually, I think Rhea is waiting for you to colorize the Overland Campaign photos to include in his book. What should I tell him

I am actually working on a few from the campaign...The sad part is that there really is a lack of images from the Wilderness.. There are some I've never seen before at the Army Carlise site, but you can't download them

If you could - give me a link to at least one of them - maybe I can work some magic
