Myles Keogh Blog
I just found a great blog dedicated to the life and career of Myles Keogh by a follower of this blog. It's really fabulous, and my friend Brian Pohanka would be very proud. I added the link to it to my blogroll, and I commend it to you.
J.D., Many thanks for the compliment - it's a work in progress. I'm the co-creator of the Myles Keogh site and was looking to contact you. Can you leave your e-mail address at myleskeogh.org@gmail.com?
I have recently been devouring books on LBH and was wondering if you have a favorite. Who better to ask than a cavalry historian. Thanks for the tip on the Keogh website, this will fit into my current reading.
Many of my LBG books I've gotten from Upton and Sons. Hard to pick a favorite - actually, Keogh is my favorite personality to study. I have two biographical volumes on him, both of which are pretty hard to find.
My interest in Myles began because of his service on Buford's staff - and he was, of course, a favorite personality of Pohanka's. J.D.
Thanks Doyle1876 and JD for the info on the books. I've actually read the Stewart book (favorite so far) as well as the Utley and Gray books. I have used the Graham book also for reference. I have bookmarked your site as I have interest in Keogh as well. Thanks again
Hi J.D.. Thanks for posting this site. Keogh is a close second favorite personality to study. I am looking forward to following this site, and learning more of Miles Keogh. Rae-Ann McDonald
