Sorry in advance for the lack of Civil War-related posts this week, but it’s been a BIG one for me in regards to the baseball-history side of my career. The posts below denote that. Don't worry, I'll be back in the trenches next week.

I did have 2 wonderfully productive meetings with the remaining two churches in my regional book and I finished another chapter as well. I have some upcoming news on my friend Mort Kunstler’s latest release here in Fredericksburg (details to come), a feature on John Adams Elder (the Confederate/Painter) in the Free Lance-Star, and some excerpts taken from several private letters sent by Sgt. Richard Rowland Kirkland. Stay tuned.

Baseball fans, you’ll want to read on…
(And Jen G., good luck. May the best team win.)
