No, the photos are of his tombstone, one portrait of the whole thing and a landscape shot of the text. According to the intro, the book includes everybody in Warner’s book (Generals in Blue), as long as they were buried in the US.

I wonder if the photos are of the historical markers I had placed there back in 2004? Guess I’ll have to pick up a copy of Lest We Forget. . .

Page 473 shows two photos of the marker for Nagle in Pottsville’s Presbyterian Cemetery. You ever been there? ;-)

BTW, I’m planning to be in Sharpsburg for the Heritage Festival on the 15th. Hope to run into you at some point during the weekend.

Any mention or photograph in the book of General James Nagle and his final resting place? I know it’s a long-shot, but I thought I’d ask anyway.
BTW. . .I’ll be doing a lot of posts this week on the 48th PA at the battle of 2nd Bull Run. Not your main focus, I understand, but thought you’d be interested nonetheless. . .
