Lee" by; Donald Waldemer Desoto Joe/The Record Man I'm R.D. Peters, host of a St. Louis radio program on WGNU (314) 454-6660, "The Writers Hour," where I interviewed Donald Waldermer, author of, "Triumph at the James: The Checkmate of General Robert E. Lee" a true story by a great historian about the last battles between Lee and Grant. Please join us for a book signing at THE BOOK HOUSE, 9719 Manchester Road, St. Louis, Mo. on July 26th, beginning at 6:00PM. R.D.

**************************** July 11th, 2002 "The Blessed Place of Freedom: Europeans in Civil War America." by; Dean B. Mahin Desoto Joe/The Record Man You may recall our correspondence a year or two ago about the Germans in America during my research for "The Blessed Place of Freedom: Europeans in Civil War America." I thought you would like to know that it will be published by Brassey's Inc. in Washington in August. The book provides a comprehensive review of the reactions and roles of Germans who were in America during the Civil War as immigrants, observers, or volunteers. Chapters on "Germans in the North" and "Germans in the South" and other thematic chapters review the reactions of the Germans to the election and reelection of Abraham Lincoln, secession, conscription, slavery, and emancipation and their service in the Union and Confederate armies. The text contains numerous quotes from reports, correspondence, and recollections by German immigrants and soldiers. The index lists 110 Germans, including 21 Germans in the biographic appendices on foreign-born senior commanders in the Union and Confederate armies. The bibliography is the most comprehensive listing to date of primary and secondary sources on Europeans in America during the CW, including 31 sources on German roles and reactions. "The Blessed Place of Freedom" will complement my earlier study of the international dimensions of the Civil War, "One War at a Time." The new book should be invaluable to any scholar interested in the reactions and roles of the Germans (or any other ethnic group) during the Civil War and of great interest to anyone descended from a German immigrant who was in America during the war.

**************************** July 30th, 2002 "Ghosts of the Civil War" by; Cheryl Harness Desoto Joe/The Record Man Yours is a splendid cyber-undertaking. I just discovered it the other day, happily. I want to bring my Civil War enterprise to your attention. "Ghosts of the Civil War" Simon & Schuster - books for young readers 2001, ISBN 0-689-83135-8 Despite its title, it's no silvery-spectre book. Rather it's an illustrated primer on the war. "Its innovative format - more picture book than literary text, yet jam-packed with facts and insights into the causes and impact of the Civil War - makes it a visually satisfying and mentally engaging product." --- Civil War Times Illustrated As an author/illustrator, I'm off to Egypt now [Ghosts of the Nile], but America's war has my deepest interest. Your marvelous page I'll visit many times and I thank you for it, Sir.

**************************** January 28th, 2003 "Civil War in Johnson County, Missouri." by; Bruce Nichols Desoto Joe/The Record Man I hope you will forgive my forwardness and gall, but I hope you will post a brief note in your wonderful MO CW Rootsweb site mentioning that Carolyn Bartels, the Civil War Book Lady at: http://members.tripod.com/cwbklady, has reprinted for sale my old 1974 Masters Thesis, "Civil War in Johnson County, Missouri." Anyone interested may order a copy from Carolyn's business in Independence or from Camp Pope Bookshop. This little book was cited in the 1995 "Price's Lieutenants" and Tucker's "Westerners in Gray." James McGhee, one of the authors of "Price's Lieutenants," and another subscriber to MO CW, encouraged me to approach Carolyn Bartels about this project. I am glad he did. I am also working on a larger project about guerrilla warfare in Civil War Missouri during 1862, but I am reluctant to give details until publication is further along. Please keep up the good work with MO CW, as I enjoy it so. I will continue to reply to queries in your forum if I know the answers. Until later, Bruce Nichols Additional information is available from the Desoto Joe's MO CW Mailing List site at: http://members.tripod.com/~DesotoJoe1/index-13.html ****************************

**************************** Motion Picture: Gods and Generals* ~ To open nation-wide February 21, '03* "Gods and Generals" by; Jeff Shaara Ok folks, Here is what I know about this new motion picture.** Gods and Generals is the prequel to The Killer Angels. I have The Killer Angels; the Ted Turner motion picture Gettysburg is based upon this book. It was written by Michael Shaara. Michael's son Jeff is the author of Gods and Generals. ( I have not read the book, but I have and enjoyed the movie Gettysburg, so I'm looking forward to seeing this ) Even if you dislike Ted Turner, ( For whatever reason ) you have to applaud his efforts to keep alive our historical interest in the Civil War. He coughed up the money to produce the movie & hired Ron Maxwell to write the screenplay & direct it. ( Ron also did Gettysburg ) Ted will be making a cameo in the movie, by the way, as Colonel Patton. Actors from the Movie Gettysburg, will be recreating their roles for this project. More on that, in a bit, but first, a little story on how this all came about. In 1964, Michael Shaara took his family on vacation, & Jeff, who was twelve at the time, asked his dad to stop off at Gettysburg, because Jeff was a huge Civil War buff. Michael had absolutely no interest in history or the war, but to please his son, took the family there. A transformation took place inside Michael that day as he took in the battlefield & monuments. He suddenly became obsessed with Gettysburg & the War & for the next seven years, he researched the material for the book he would write, The Killer Angels. Sadly, Michael would die in 1988 & never knew his book was turned into a movie. Ron Maxwell had read The Killer Angels & wanted to make it into a movie, but it would take fifteen years to finally complete this dream. During this time, he had a conversation with Jeff Shaara about continuing his father's work, perhaps other books should be written about the subject, before or after Gettysburg. Jeff decided that he should try to do this, & Gods and Generals came about. Kevin Conway, who portrayed Irishman Buster Kilrain of the twentieth Maine in Gettysburg, will be returning for Gods and Generals. Martin Sheen who portrayed Robert E. Lee in Gettysburg (And did an excellent job, I might add) is being replaced by Robert Duvall, who is related to the General on his Mother's side of the family. He looks more like Lee than Sheen did in this role, by the way. Stephen Lang will be portraying Stonewall Jackson & there is a lot of pressure on him, I would think, because Jackson is never portrayed in film. It will be interesting to see how he approaches the role. Tom Berringer, who appeared as General James Longstreet in Gettysburg, will be replaced by Bruce Boxleitner for Gods and Generals. Huge numbers of volunteer re-enactors appear in this film, in fact, the movie would not have been able to have been made without them. Kali Rocha plays Anna Jackson, Stonewall's wife & here is a bit of trivia for you. Cortlandt Creech, the Grandaughter of Stonewall Jackson, heard that this film was being made & showed up on the live location, to see for herself, just what was going on in the production. Stephen Lang was a big hit with her & felt that having her there, helped bless the project. Jim Choate will portray General Bee, who coined the "Stonewall" name & there are people who are in this movie, like Ceaser ( a reporter for USA Today ) who you will not know, but were given the opportunity to participate. Chris Conner will portray John Wilkes Booth & looks just like him, it is almost spooky. Mira Sorvino will be in this movie as Fanny Chamberlain, not a big part as I understand, but essential to the story. What I think is nice is the company tried to film in locations that were authentic or reproduced as best as possible. They basically took over the lower half of Harper's Ferry, to film some scenes. Kudos to the National Park Service for allowing this to happen. Patrick Gorman will play General John Bell Hood & Stephen Spacek will portray James Power Smith. Senator Phill Gramm will do a cameo & Jeff Daniels & C. Thomas Howell will be back from Gettysburg as the Chamberlain brothers. Mia Dillon will be in this movie as Jane Beale & Jeff Shaara will do a cameo as well. I'm sure his father would have been proud. I understand Bob Dylan wrote & performs a song in the film. It is rated PG-13 & from what I understand, the movie concentrates on General Jackson more than Lee. There are some other scenes that I know about, but I would not want to give everything away here. I truly hope this does well at the box office, but I would love to see it at the drive-in on the big screen under the stars. Desoto Joe/The Record Man PS Hagerstown, Md. -- The Civil War movie Gods and Generals won't include scenes of the Battle of Antietam, the war's bloodiest one-day clash, director Ronald Maxwell says. Those scenes, shot in 2001, were cut to bring the film's running time to three hours and 35 minutes, maxwell told an audience in Shepherdstown, W.Va., last week. Maxwell said the Antietam battle, fought near Sharpsburg, Md., in 1862, will be included in a six-hour DVD version of the film. AP ******************************
