Tom,

Both Maj. Gen. Napoleon Jackson Tecumseh Dana and Brig. Gen. Ezra Ayers Carman should be happy of the correct photo! Carman I’m sure was happy not to suffer the fate of Dana at Antietam, however.

I am anxious to get your book both from Amazon and the ANB bookstore. Congratulations again and I look forward to volume 2 and your magazine article.

Tom,

Thanks for the information. I have a Civil War library of over 4100 books. In my reading I find footnotes and maps essential. Thank you for the reply. I look forward to picking up and reading these two volumes.

Andy,
Since I have not seen you on the blog site, and others may rightly wonder the same thing, here is a short answer. My version is more in-depth in terms of the amount of information provided. I have more footnotes, and they discuss much more than Pierro’s. He was identifying source, I analyze them, discuss the reliability of them and use more of the letters to the Battlefield Board to identify where Carman got his information. My version has maps, 22 of them! It also has several pictures of scenes of the campaign and 3 pictures of Carman. BTW, the other version’s picture of Carman is incorrect. Savas Beatie has done a nice job of putting it in an attractive and readable format, and cheaper too!

Tom,

I cannot wait for this work to become available. Would you please tell me how this work is different from Pierro’s work.
