Salmon. Tom Churchill of the http://www.18thmass.com/blog site has already reviewed it, and I have a link to a book trailer showcasing some of the photographs within the book, http://bookmarket.ning.com/video/video/show?id=523145:Video:6499. If you’d like to post a review online as well, I’d be happy to send you a complimentary copy. The title is done in a large format, 10×10 and all images used are culled from several archives that represent rare or never before seen photos. There are the more famous ones included as well, to round out the pictorial narrative and tell the story of the Battle of Gettysburg and its aftermath, including several reunions and shots of the park and how it’s evolved over the years.

Also, if you are a fan of military history in general, it might interest you to know we have a picture book coming out about Theodore Roosevelt as well, and its book trailer is here: http://bookmarket.ning.com/video/video/show?id=523145:Video:10483.

Thanks, and I hope you don’t mind me dropping you a line to let you know about our book! Talk to you soon. My email address is rpatton@turnerpublishing.com
