Louisville in the Civil War
My Fellow Readers:
I am really excited about my newest book: A Historic Tour of Louisville During the Civil War. The book will be published by History Press. The book will briefly discuss Louisville During the Civil War and will have a guided tour of the sites that you can visit in Louisville that still exist from the Civil War. The publication hopefully will be by June of this year.
My Dear Fellow Readers:
You can now purchase Louisville During the Civil War: A History and Guide through TheHistoryPress.net. Also watch my site for future booksignings on the book for this fall.
1First of all, let me say that this is a FANTASTIC web site and I am extremely impressed with you books about the Civil War in Kentucky. I am anxious to read them all!
My comment regards your article describing the murder of Bull Nelson by Jefferson Davis at the Galt House. I don’t believe Bull brought things on himself because of his arrogant manner; he was unarmed and shot in cold blood by a man who hated him and very well may have been part of a conspiracy to get rid of him. That General Davis was never tried for his murder and was even returned to active duty is beyond me! The story of Bull Nelson is one every Louisvillian should read about in their history book! Our opinions may differ in what actually took place, but I thank you for telling it!
Thanks to you and others who research our past, the history of our city will remain alive! Thanks again!
