Hi List, For those of you who really want to take the time to find information about the War besides what's on the internet, I wanted to share with you one book I use a LOT for research. "The Civil War Day By Bay: An Almanac 1861-1865" by E.B. Long with Barbara Long, forward by Bruce Catton. ISBN 0-306-80255-4 This is a great book and can be found either in hardback or paperback at a good price. If you should run up on a copy, you might want to check it out. Thanks again for all the well wishes regarding my recent surgery. I see my doctor tomorrow and get my stitches out and all this surgical garb off. I'll probably be in another cast again for a while,but hopefully for not too long. Hoping all of you are doing well. Edward
