They’re being added in tonite…

We got pulled back in again!

(Our apologies to Ted Savas 🙂 )

I love your passion for this project. It will keep you fresh, young and turning out books that will be read 100 years from now. Congratulations. my friend! Now, you and J. D. go find some more items.

Best wishes always,
Lanny

Now you go and disappoint me again. Didn’t I even write a dust-jacket endorsement for it so many long years ago? Will it be out by next spring?

Glad to see you went with Savas–the finished product will be top-notch.

Mark

Gerard Patterson had a thoughtful essay in *Civil War News* a year or so ago called “The Historian’s Lament” that described just this sort of thing. I think it’s a universal challenge for writers who rely on original, unpublished, and archival material, as you do.

Keep up the great work,

Jim

The goal will be to have this third volume out in late 2008. If any of Eric’s readers have amusing, poignant, or emotionally stirring stories they want to share, they can contact me through my blog.

There were six good items that I just finished adding in to the manuscript. They really added a lot to the story and I’m really glad that I was able to do so.

I look forward to volume 3.

Eric

Indeed. It never seems to end. 🙂

Glad to know that my little book was of value to you! While written with the tourist in mind, the Human Interest Stories series were drawn from a lot of obscure sources that I have uncovered over the years.

My best wishes for success with the retreat book!!

As I’ve joked before, the most sure-fire way to uncover previously unknown sources is to publicly declare your manuscript finished and submit it to the publisher! It’s gotta be a karma or the-stars-are-in-alignment thing…
