My Dear Fellow Readers:

For the Abraham Lincoln Bicentennial I have been asked to dress in my Union Civil War uniform at the Kentucky Book Fair on Nov. 15 at the Frankfort Convention Center. I will be there all day signing books. Please come by and say Hi. This is always a good event and I always enjoy meeting my fellow collagues.

My Dear Fellow Readers:

My first booksigning and lecture for my newest book Louisville During the Civil War: A History and Guide will be at Destinations Booksellers in New Albany, Indiana at 4 PM. I really excited about my newest book and I think you will be too.

My Dear Fellow Readers:

I have added a new book signing for October. On October 6, at the Meade County Library at 6 PM I will be giving a lecture and book signing on Union General Stephen Gano Burbridge. Guerilla warfare ravaged Meade County and General Burbridge personally became involved in the executions of suspected guerillas for the guerilla activity in Meade County. I am also having a radio interview at 11 am that same day, so stay tuned for further developments. Also, Perryville has confirmed that I will be doing a lecture on Lincoln and the Speeds and a book signing at the Perryville Battlefield on Saturday Oct. 11 at noon.

Dear Fellow Readers:

The last two months have been busy. The History Press will be publishing my newest book: Louisville During the Civil War: A History and Guide, in about three weeks. The book cover looks fantastic and has been signed off on and the text has already been approved. When the release date is finalized I shall let my readers know.

On August 22, at 5:15 Pm I will be signing my two new books on Lincoln and the Speeds and Union General Stephen Gano Burbridge. I will also be unveiling my newest DVD on the tour of the Civil War Museum in Bardstown, Kentucky. The museum is 10,000 square feet and has been ranked the 4th best Civil War museum in the United States. If you have not been I highly recommend the museum. The artifacts alone will knock your socks off. The entire cast of the Broadway Play “The Civil War” will also be at the museum to kick off their play at the Stephen Foster Amphitheater. This looks like a fun event and the museum is open to the public. Hope to see everyone there.

My Fellow Readers:

As you may have noticed I have not posted recently on the blog. I have super busy the last couple of weeks. If you have not caught my interview on NPR on State of Affairs, I recommend going to their web site and listening to the interview on my book Lincoln and the Speeds. I was also in Rowan County and did a presentation on General Burbridge. I was really welcomed by the historical society, and had a good time talking to the residents of the county. They have already invited me to come back and do another lecture. Today, I will be in Springfield, Kentucky signing books at the Thomas Lincoln and Nancy Hanks re-enactment of the their wedding at the Lincoln Homestead. I will be there at 2:30 pm, so come on out and see a historic re-enactment and enjoy the beautiful weather.  This coming weekend I will be in Chicago, Illinois and will be doing a virtual booksigning at the Abraham Lincoln Bookstore on Saturday at 12 noon. After that I have a break for the hot days of July, then I will start up again in August. Keeping looking at the web site, we should have another article soon on Guerilla Warfare in Kentucky.

On edit: Here’s a link to the article: “Guerilla Warfare in Kentucky”.

Dear Fellow Readers:

Things have really been having the last couple of weeks. I have done photography around town for the Louisville in the Civil War book and tomorrow I will be at the Bluegrass Festival of Books. I will be at the Joseph Beth Booksellers from 9 to 5. Hope to see everyone.  

My Fellow Readers.

Just a reminder that May 17 from 9 to 5 I will be at the Bluegrass Festival of Books. Hope to see my Lexington friends there.

My Dear Fellow Readers:

Just a update. Looks like my book on Louisville During the Civil War will be out for Christmas. Eariler I said it could be June, but the publishers thought that the book would be a nice gift for all you Civil War buffs out there.  You may notice that I do not have an article for this month the reason being that I have some REALLY strict deadlines to make for the Louisville book, but not to fear, come July I will continue to post articles.

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.
