(This message was added in version 4.2.0.) in /home/netscrib/public_html/civilwarcavalry/wp-includes/functions.php on line 4239I submitted the manuscript to LSU Press. My plan was for them to look it over while I was supplying text on the 2 missing battles.
I was quite shocked when they rejected one of Bearss’ finest pieces of writing. It was clear to me from my conversation with Rand Dotson, LSU’s new civil war editor, that he hadn’t even read most of the manuscript. The missing chapters played no role in his rejecting the manuscript.
Rob Hodge, Bearss and I still plan to supply chapters on the 2 missing battles. Once I get them I’ll try to find a publisher.
I am open to suggestions as to who might publish this fine book.

]]>Thanks for your kind words–much obliged. I will eventually do a second edition of it–I’ve submitted it to a publisher for a new edition. I hope to hear soon.
I agree that Will is the right guy. Let’s hope he gets it done soon.

]]>I also wanted compliment you on your Trevilian Station book. One of my Civil War highlights for 2005 was using it for a day-long driving tour of the summer 1864 cavalry actions. I was born and raised fifteen minutes drive from the Samaria Church battlefield, but this was an aspect of the war that I had not investigated.
Happy New Year and best of luck on your new projects.

I’ve known Brian McKnight for many years, and I read his book in manuscript a few months ago. It’s an excellent piece of scholarship, one I was happy to endorse and “blurb.” I think you’ll like it a lot.
Ken
]]>Indeed. Let’s hope so.

]]>I went back and reread our CWDG discussion on Petersburg from earlier this year, and in addition to what you said about Gordon Rhea, you also mentioned a hard drive crash for Bryce Suderow. I had forgotten about that and was disappointed (again) when I read it. Kevin Levin mentions on his blog that A. Wilson Greene is starting the “Gordon Rhea” treatment on Petersburg. That’s exciting news, to say the least. I’m encouraged by what Ken has to say on the subject as well. Maybe people are finally starting to see the light…
