The Civil War Catalog

[whbonney26]

Picked up a new book at Books-A-Million the other day. Its called "The Civil War Catalog" by Antony Shaw.

Its a pretty nice hardback book with lots of nice pics of gear used in the war. If you have not got a chance to look at this book you should check it out. Its worth it in my opinion. I only paid 12.95 for mine on the sale table.

Thanks for the info whb. I'll have to check it out when I get back to B-A-M. They have a preety good selection of Civil War titles. You just have to watch out for the nay-sayer authors.
Sounds like you found a good one.

Oh yeah, Welcome to the forum...
