Hello,
The legacy of the U.S civil war is still visible with statues of Confederate generals like Lee being removed from public places and restrictions on flying the Stars and Bars. Having read and enjoyed the Starbuck novels, I understand why you wrote them from the Confederate side. It gave the series an edginess. Did you ever have any concerns when writing the first of the Starbuck novels : Rebel! that sections of the public and or media might construe your writing from the Southern viewpoint as having pro-confederate sympathies or any worries that Confederate groups would use the novels in some way to advance their viewpoints?
Regards
Adrian.
