Louisville, the Ohio Valley and the Civil War

February 28, 2010 By: bryan Category: Book Sales/Availability, Book Signings, Bryan's Appearances, Louisville in the Civil War

My Dear Fellow Readers:

On March 26-27, the University of Louisville Arts and Sciences Department will hold a symposium on Louisville during the first two years of the Civil War. Many of my friends and fellow colleagues were shocked to find out that I was not asked to present a paper on Louisville During the Civil War, considering I wrote the book Louisville During the Civil War: A History and Guide, which by the way in in its second printing. Luckily I will be able to share a table with the Carnegie Center and hopefully have people join the Louisville Historical League and buy my book on Louisville During the Civil War. I will be attending the conference since I met so many of my fellow friends and colleagues at the last conference.

Peterson Ave. from 12 noon to 3 pm. There will also be a discussion panel at 12:15. So come out and have fun and meet the authors.

December 09, 2009 By: admin Category: Book Sales/Availability, Civil War Ghosts

It has been over a year since Bryan has released a book, but the time has now arrived once more.  Bryan is today announcing his new book Haunted Battlefields of the South, which was co-authored with Thomas Freese.

Here’s info about the book from Bryan’s main site:

Co-Authors Historian Bryan Bush and Storyteller Thomas Freese bring exciting and chilling tales of the ghosts of the War Between the States!

The ghosts of Civil War soldiers still inhabit the battlefields of our Southern States.  Veteran re-enactor and historian Bryan Bush traveled to battlefields and researched both tactical history and on-the-ground life of soldiers on both sides of the War.  He and co-author Thomas L. Freese interviewed re-enactors and photographed the places and people who immersed themselves in recreating the soldiers’ camp, social, travel and martial activities.

Read more on the book’s information page.  It’s also now available for sale in Bryan’s store.  Bryan’s store is the only way you can order the book and get his signature!
