Have yet to see the book here either, but as one who has enjoyed reading Gary’s previous books, I will be picking up a copy. Just found out this evening that Peter Cozzens will have a book out on the Valley Camapign in 1862 this September from the UNC Press.

Hope all is well.

Regards from the Garden State, where I hope the flightless birds from Pittsburgh go down yet again on Sunday afternoon. :)

Steve

I got an e-mail from Gary confirming our suspicions re: Jackson’s prominence on the cover and in the title.

The original title was “Shenandoah Shockwaves”. I had a feeling that one wouldn’t last. The subtitle does imply the very slant that GE is trying to avoid, but I suppose from the publisher’s viewpoint you have to get those marketing keywords into the subtitle at least!

Alas, Mansfield will have to survive yet another year without me. And without my wallet.

Brett,

Gary’s books on Kernstown and Frederick Lander are really great. I’m glad to see him returning to the Valley, though he has a ne book on Lincoln and the 1860 election coming out soon.

I just received my copy. I need to get through Chadwick’s 1858 hopefully over the weekend and then I can dive right in to this one. I’m eagerly looking forward to it, especially given the more balanced viewpoint you mention above.

Gary helped me several years ago on a little project I was working on with information contained in the new book. He was very gracious and helpful. I loved his book on First Kernstown as well, and I know Drew W. does too.

I hope to find Ecelbarger’s latest at the Mansfield shindig this weekend. Will you be making an appearance?

Mike
