Over the last several months, I've had a great time speaking at various groups including the Pender CWRT in Rocky Mount, the Outer Banks CWRT, the Petersburg CWRT, and the New Bern Historical Society. I also want to thank Gerry Prokopowicz for having me on Civil War Talk Radio. I'm grateful for the recognition The Fight For the Old North State has received, including Best Book of the Year from Civil War Books and Authors. Thanks so much to everyone who has bought the book!

Thanks to the New Bern Historical Society

Many thanks to the New Bern Historical Society for a great program yesterday. It was an honor to deliver the Annual Ed Bearss Civil War Lecture at the N.C. History Center at Tryon Palace. There was a great, capacity crowd (about 200) at a fantastic venue.

Most of all, I enjoyed talking with so many knowledgeable people before and after the talk signing including Mickey Miller (the Society's Executive Director), Jim Hodges (the Society's Curator), Jim Reifinger, Steve Shaffer, David Skaggs, John Klecker, Jon Miller (New Bern Battlefield Park), Lindy Cummings (Tryon Palace), Alan Hawkins, Skip Riddle (Kinston CWRT), Steve Dembickie, and many others. I also want to give a special shoutout to my cousin, Asher Brinson, who attended as well.
