Following some thought after some good advice from a friend (thank you, Michael), I decided to delete the last couple post here, made concerning the new book at left. Called “Jeb Stuart and the Confederate Defeat at Gettysburg,” it’s by Warren C. Robinson, an economics professor at Penn State University.
After getting a copy and reading it, as I posted previously here, I can’t recommend it for various reasons. However, as pointed out to me, this particular book can be seen as “competition” for my book on the subject, and I don’t want folks to think that my negative comments about it are simply a reflection of that. I have my specifics reasons for not recommending this book, based on its content and source material, but it’s fair to let folks decide for themselves.
If anyone would like to discuss it, I’d be happy to.
