Teacher of Civil War Generals is now available at Barnes & Noble and at Barnes & Noble online.

I am reaching out to several stores to do book signings and presentations.

The Lone Star Book Review has given Teacher of Civil War Generals its highest rating. Thanks for the “WOW!” rating. This rating is only given to a “book that far exceeds the current expectations of the reader.”

We had the pleasure of doing a book signing at the Barnes & Noble Creekwalk Village store in Plano, TX on December 5th from 2-4 p.m.  It was great meeting people and telling them about General Smith. We learned about their interests in history and shared our adventures in researching and writing this book. I hope we will have the pleasure of doing more of these events in the future.

We handed out the following list of names for the American Civil War to everyone we met.
