_BiB_ Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 Brian, in his characteristic modest way suggests we would be better served by one of the resident Rangers at the battlefields for a tour, as his (minutia,my words) detail expertise is in the subject matter of the book. He did give an extremely wide smile (an "Aw Garsh" type) when I told him of your interest. He actually blushed, I think. You made a scholar, and a decorated Viet Nam war Company Commander and a good man happy. Be proud. That's usually reserved for people nothing like him. At least around here. In this day and age. I don't know that he planned on selling 10 books. It's a labor of love for the history. I was glad to pass your interest on. Brian appreciates it. And so do I.

Campy Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 Like I said BiB, just let us know title and release date. While I'm sure he'll manage to get the checks from his publisher deposited, I imagine an author knowing people appreciate his efforts is a pretty fair reward unto itself. Thanks for letting him know we're looking forward to reading his book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It takes a lot more dedication than I would have thought. A lot of work. Especially, when you are talking real history. Not like these "I had a job in the__administration, here's why I'm right and they're stupid". I'm sorry if I sound impressed, I've seen the work he's put into this. It's not ghost written after he lost his job to meet the flame of the time for money and a shot on MSNBC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverNRed Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 Like I said BiB, just let us know title and release date. 108788[/snapback] Count me in. Most of the books I read are history anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
