@BrianRSolomon Agreed... and other than Doris (possibly), his story was the saddest of all the VEs. Maybe Hollywood didn't want THAT much of a downer in the film. I can imagine that note on the screenplay drafts "Too sad? Maybe a little less tragedy in this story?"

@HNTurtledove That makes me happy and sad. Bruce Catton's wonderful prose and David Greenspan's remarkable battle maps were such a huge part of my childhood. Many long long car rides were spent pouring over that book (and American Heritage's WW2 book).

[Sean McIver @macseann]

@HNTurtledove I still love that you used "The American Heritage Picture History of the Civil War" in such a pivotal way in this book. I wore out two copies of this book (and the WW2 one as well), and I was the only person I knew who both owned and read it. That gave me a huge grin in 92.

@HNTurtledove @mrjava instant buy! Can't wait to read it. Been a fan since that cover of a paperback with REL holding an AK-47 stopped me in my tracks 29 years ago (was it that long ago????).

@theryanbradford @TheSchmoedown Um.... different dudes.

@ssjs2009 @texaspodcast Great feedback! You are correct that there were many captives, esp. those who’d forgotten their previous lives, who were unable to re-assimilate to white society. We did discuss the tragic final years of Cynthia Ann Parker back in ep 100 on Quanah Parker (https://t.co/l11cHCnBYc)

@MartyVanBuren Perhaps I may suggest Peggy Eaton?

@Rachelskirts @schwa I would elevate this political discussion to your company's HR department.

@iandeecarroll @yachtrock @mrjava The BYR guys stated that the Eagles members have yacht songs, not the collective. QED #eaglesnotyacht
