You should order it. LOL! What a wonderful father day’s present.

Interesting. I am a big fan of “what if” Civil War books.

[carton253]

There are exerpts of the novel at the link.

Look what I did.

It’s here, it’s here.

Jackson is one of my heroes. One of the things I find impressive is his absolute faith in the sovereignty and purposes of God. My family lives in a place which is considered to be a bit adventuresome. We have often reminded ourselves of Jackson’s daring in the face of danger and why he was daring.

I think John Mosby asks the right question. "How could Stuart be on the Susquehanna and the Potomac at the same time?"

Stuart was ordered to Ewell. When Stuart assembled his troopers together on June 25, Ewell was in Chambersburg. Between Lee and Stuart was the Federal army, the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Bull Run Mountains. How could Stuart keep Lee informed of the movement of the Union army.

Stuart left Roberston and Jones to protect the right flank and rear of the army as it moved north. Robertson did not.

That’s absolutely why I fell in love with him. His absolute faith in God. You can’t separate that from him.

[carton253]

A heads up. My novel has been published.

[carton253]

I thought you might be interested in my new novel.

[carton253]

You spent alot of time with me answering a technical legal question. I just wanted you to know that you'll find your answer within the novel's pages.

Thanks for your help.

Very interesting. Have you considered one in which JEB Stuart isn’t off galavanting around and provides timely reports to Lee around the time of Gettysburg? That would be interesting also.

Congratulations! Hope the info keeps the horse nuts off your case.

[GRRRRR]

Yep, something along the lines of JFK does get shot, but not fatally. LHO is captured alive and gives up the Mafia/Military plotters, resulting in the end of organized crime. JFK, fully recovered, is re-elected, takes out Castro. Cuba and Puerto Rico become states. He continues his tax cuts, the economy goes wild and Viet Nam never happens as the Commies are too afraid of the USA.

Hmmmm....

[carton253]

Since I don’t consider Stuart off galavanting around, I would find that hard to write. But you could do it, and I would read it.

[carton253]

You write it, and I’ll read it.

[carton253]

I hope so too.

[carton253]

I thought you might be interested.

[carton253]

I finally finished it.

[Forward the Light Brigade]

I want to see a book on what would have happened if General Santa Anna has sent in his reserves at Buena Vista and won the Mexican American War. The southwest would still belong to Mexico.
