So here's why I like it... I have over 1000 plays and theatre books at home that might have value for others ... but how to communicate what I have?

Here are titles of some books I have used to study the Gettysburg Campaign: Pickets Charge by George R. Stewart dated 1959, use of First Person reports VERY good. Gettysburg-Balttle & Battlefield by W. C Storrick, was a participant of the battle as well as one of the first 'guides' of the field, poor source, in as he relates many of the myths of the battle..; Three Months in the Southern States by Lt. Col Arthur J. L Fremantle, with the Southern side as ' the eyes and ears of Queen Victoria' wonderful perspective of the southern side; and he continued to welcome southerns in England for years to come.
