Hi Paula, I've been looking at John M. Gould's papers lately, and he studied the 128 PA a lot. I'll be happy to share with you as I get copies of stuff. ...
Thanks Tom, that would be great! I hope to get back to my research in the summer after school ends. This has been an extremely tough year and I have done...
Have you downloaded the mrsid browser plug-in? I can't quite remember...I don't use windows anymore. At one point I used the plug in to view sid CC files I ...
I thought Dave wanted the CC series, each one full size. I had one map printed by a company in Florida and it cost $30-$35 IIRC. The park bookstore has a full...
T.R. and Larry, Yep, the first part of the answer is a usable format, and T.R. is correct, the web browser plug in does offer saving a .sid file into a .jpg or...
Larry, I looked at the map at the Park bookstore, and I wasn't all that impressed. A little hard to read and muddy. It may just print that way, but I passed...
I found my copy of the viewer that I downloaded several years ago. I couldn't find it on their website. The CC maps are great, but they are too big to be used...
T.R. and Dave, The large printed maps do seem to muddy some details and the colors aren't as good; they are just not as clear as the screen version. Apparently...
Probably most of us agree that Longstreet's famous cannon crew fired from near the Hagerstown Pike. But has it been settled that he and his staff did crew a...
Dear Larry, I skimmed through the account and will read it more closely at another time. However, if I might comment... 1. Confederate Veteran had a bad habit...
Larry, Wm. Owen's In Camp & Battle with the Washington Artillery says it happened, see the Sharpsburg chapter. Owen is usually regarded as reliable....
For what it's worth, I used Owen extensively in researching "No Greater Courage" because the historians at the F'Berg park recommended it so highly. ... From:...
And also -- Ted Alexander read my manuscript (this has been years ago) for "To Make Men Free" and made no changes to the Longstreet Battery section. ... From:...
All--thanks for the input. I wonder if the post war Lost Cause anti-Longstreet bias had something to do with the report along with the usual poor memory of the...
Found a reply in a CV 1894 magagine re Longstreet's battery: "THE CRISIS AT SHARPSBURG . A correspondent from Salisbury, N. C., gives some interesting...
Larry, Yes, I have the 1904 edition. The printed images are very clean and crisp. If all you've ever seen is the reprints of the official records atlas, the...
TR, I looked at some of your flybys and they are interesting; thanks for sharing them. I will be instructive to see what Stephen comes up with for Virtual...
Larry, I have never had access to a 1908 version to compare. My guess is that the differences between the 2 are minor. A hint of possible changes can be...
Somewhere in the papers from Carman I found a listing of the changes. Will see if I can find it for you. We have 8 x10 color negatives of the 1908 maps....
Tom, I also am interested in the changes as well as a set of the 1908 maps. The best for them would be full size on sturdy, laminated paper, obviously clearly...
OK, but it won't be anytime soon. I am rushing to finish some other stuff and go out of town for a week. Thomas G. Clemens D.A. Professor of History ...
