Dear Bernard

I saw this book comparing the Battle of Five Forks and comparing it to Waterloo, calling it the Confederacy’s. I wondered if you agreed with that statement ?

Also in your Starbuck books , the possibility of Sharpe’s Grandson making an appearence was raised. I was curious what was his Name ?

Birge Western Sharpshooters under Grant and Sherman would’ve been the perfect unit for Sharpes Grandson to join and there Combat record was incredible And all though I guess it won’t happen now but did you ever plan to have Starbuck fight the Iron Brigade ? It was a shame you missed out on him fighting those Black Hat fellas in Battleflag at Brawners Farm . I always wondered if you were gonna have him go up against them at Gettysburg  ?

Regards
