Killer Angels.

I just finished listening to a book about the battle of Gettysburg, Killer Angels by Michael Shaara. I thoroughly enjoyed it because it was historically accurate and written from the standpoint of the Generals on both sides of the battle. It reminded me of the movie Gettysburg. So I went on line to see what others thought of this book and - DUH !– It won a Pulitzer, was written in 1974 and was considered by one critic as one of the worlds great books.
But don’t take my word for it : http://www.brothersjudd.com/index.cfm/fuseaction/reviews.detail/book_id/705

Today, July 2nd, is also the birthday of my sister Patty. Having just had the memorial service for her and putting her ashes in the ground I thought it was worth mentioning. Now she and my Mother, who cried so many times wondering "Where my baby is" are together again .
