I think I can use what I have available now and check your article when Brian posts it.<BR/><BR/>Here is the Carman reference:<BR/><BR/>Carman, Ezra A. "The Maryland Campaign of September 1862: Ezra A. Carman's Definitive Study of the Union and Confederate Armies at Antietam." Joseph Pierro. Ed. London: Routledge, 2008.<BR/><BR/>The publishing of this book is long-awaited good news for students of the Battle of Antietam and Confederate General Robert E. Lee’s Maryland Campaign of September 1862. Editor Joseph Pierro has taken Ezra Ayers Carman’s manuscript found at the Library of Congress in hand-written form and made it into a necessary part of the Antietam lexicon.<BR/><BR/>Virtually everything that took place during the campaign is discussed. It should be out late in Feb.<BR/><BR/>Larry F.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8067579820246795126.post-38853147894007140832008-01-04T17:08:00.000-08:002008-01-04T17:08:00.000-08:00Larry,If you tell me the info you're referencing, ...Larry,<BR/><BR/>If you tell me the info you're referencing, I can tell you where I found it, that might be faster than waiting for the article to post if you're under deadlines.<BR/><BR/>I'm not familiar with Pierro's book. What cavalry enngagements does he refer to? Antietam's not a strong point of mine, I rely on aotw. 8^)Donhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02981364424576706674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8067579820246795126.post-54441012637622059042008-01-03T08:29:00.000-08:002008-01-03T08:29:00.000-08:00Don,Thanks for your update.

I wanted to cite info within your articles in my paper but they did not have footnotes I could "cite within a cite" so that is why I asked about your upcoming article you plan to send to Brian.<BR/><BR/>I also subscribe to B&G and look forward to that issue. Unfortunately, my paper is due before the end of April so it might not arrive in time.<BR/><BR/>I have paged through Pierro's new book editing Carman's manuscript and find much about cavalry there.<BR/><BR/>Larry F.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8067579820246795126.post-52809743708067491952008-01-03T06:58:00.000-08:002008-01-03T06:58:00.000-08:00Larry,I'm glad you enjoyed it.

I had sources, then the Tischler book led me to more sources and a few areas that I needed to check his conclusions on. All but the last couple of sources arrived by Christmas, so now it's a matter of going back through and editing. It will most definitely have footnotes/ endnotes.<BR/><BR/>I noticed in this month's Blue & Gray that the spring 2008 issue will focus on Harpers Ferry. There's likely to be some great information there, as well as much better maps than the one I've ben scribbling on and correcting for months now.Donhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02981364424576706674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8067579820246795126.post-85677212273238324412008-01-03T06:43:00.000-08:002008-01-03T06:43:00.000-08:00Don,I enjoyed your HF escape series and look forwa...Don,<BR/><BR/>I enjoyed your HF escape series and look forward to your HF escape article on AotW. Any idea when you will get it to Brian for posting? Will it have endnotes?<BR/><BR/>Larry F.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8067579820246795126.post-23098657727475106592008-01-01T19:51:00.000-08:002008-01-01T19:51:00.000-08:00Happy New Year, and best of luck with all those pr...Happy New Year, and best of luck with all those projects.
