Scooped…

…so it appears, on that new book I bought about the lead-up to the war.  It seems blogger Kevin Levin has read it (or is reading it) and gives it a thumbs up!  Check out what he has to say here.

To replace that bit (and I have to, since it takes me quite awhile to read a book, and Cry Havoc! is not at the top of my list), I have tweaked the Union Order of Battle, and am working on the Confederate.  WordPress is a little maddening: I’m having real problems copying from Word to the blog.  But at the end of the day, I think I’ll be happier with the appearance than I was.

Also, I’ll explore a Bull Run/Super Bowl XLI connection, which has a lot to do with everybody’s favorite Colt.
