I began reading your books in the Starbuck series.As a reinactor and a member of the Sons of Confederate Veterans, I found your approuch refreshing and somewhat suprizing in this day and time. In our PC society it has become hard to find a writer that has the knowledge and courage to write about the war as it happened. Most individuals simple go the new course, not telling the truth. The kind of materials that you place in your book holds my attention and makes me realize the hardships my ancestors had to endure. I read the article about the Starbuck Series. I can understand your take on this, but there is another thought in this matter. You have many a Southerner waiting to read the next in your series.If you have traveled much in our region you would have learned first hand that we are still a people unto ourselves. While I understand that you as an artist go the direction that burns the fire at the time, I implore you to please write in our direction. As of this moment I have read all of the books on this site except the two new ones listed here. These two books are the next on my list and will be in my library as they are listed.
