I just got an email from Daniel Brown (aka Brig. Gen. E. P. Alexander) with a photo of the t-shirts that they had printed up for this weekend's event using my GOE design. The CC T-Shirt Printing Co. did a wonderful job and I hope that these sell well for the group.

Just in case you forgot: The Civil War Gathering of Eagles (June 6-8) is an educational event brought to life by living historians from across the country. The Civil War personas, discuss the events of the war brought to life through their first person portrayals. Issues discussed during this two and a half day event range from the tactics used to the causes of the War and the occasional heated discussion concerning the legality of secession based on the Constitution and other sources used by our Founding Fathers to establish the "united States of America."

I will be signing discounted copies of  "The Southern Cross," "Onward Christian Soldier" and "Christian Cavalier." on Sat. and Sun. I'll also have bound copies of my Civil War coloring book for kids. My father and I are arriving early Friday morning with plans to tour and photograph the Stonewall Confederate Cemetery, Kernstown Battlefield, George Washington Office Museum, Fort Collier, (and a Sunday trip to Stonewall Museum at Hupp’s Hill). I'll be sure to post a recap w/ pics here.

If you're in the neighborhood, please stop on by.
