i thoroughly enjoyed book one...angry right now that i haven't had time to get much into book two. have been sick for about a week, so i'm behind on a lot of stuff right now except for work.
the vicksburg seige took six weeks, so i figure it'll take up several chapters. and of course there's gettysburg. and yes, it does help having grown up near so many historical sites. manassas, richmond, d.c., fredericksburg, etc. and of course revolution sites i've been lucky enough to go to, my favorite being yorktown. managed a trip to camden,sc a few years back-awesome stuff, including the jail where a young andrew jackson was locked up for fighting against king and country! jamestown, williamsburg..mt vernon-many times. if you ever get a chance to go to d.c. and the surrounding area, go! you will not regret it. too much history to skip. now...if i can just get tony to drive me to new york.
