Mr. Cornwell, just a short note to thank you for the many hours of enjoyment I’ve gotten from your books. As a civil war reenactor the Starbuck series was a special treat. I would like to extend an invitation to you, if you ever attend a reenactment in southern New England please look me up. I’m sure we could find some scraps of uniform and a musket. It might just give you the chance to hear the rebel yell, of course there’s always the odd cup of something floating around. Best regards, 1st Sgt. Tom Kneeland, 4th Alabama/15th Mass.
