The book is a home and I'm at my office at the moment, so I can't look at it to see what info on ol' Rufus' command might be in there. But I suspect you'll find some useful stuff.<br /><br />J.D.J David Petruzzihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14212575393266360359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7827905110534990587.post-23652075040416576982009-09-23T21:37:28.619-04:002009-09-23T21:37:28.619-04:00I would love to hear more about the new book on &q...I would love to hear more about the new book on "Chew's Artillery Battery", as Chew was very effective in supporting Barringer's Cavalry Brigade.<br /><br />Bobby Edwards<br />Moderator of the 3rd North Carolina Cavalry<br />NC Regimental Heritage Project<br /><br />http://www.myfamily.com/group/nc3rdcavalryBobby Edwardshttp://www.myfamily.com/group/nc3rdcavalrynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7827905110534990587.post-13462861718323614352009-09-23T20:23:17.897-04:002009-09-23T20:23:17.897-04:00Mike,
It's "Chew's Battery of Stuart...Mike,<br /><br />It's "Chew's Battery of Stuart's Horse Artillery" by Edward K. Cassedy. It actually came out in 2006, but I had missed it. Published by Jefferson County Museum, Charles Town WV. 160 pp. Tons of primary accounts in the form of letter quotations mainly. I don't think it was a very large print run (it's one of those soft-cover 8.5x11 type books) and I snagged the only copy that was in the Harpers Ferry bookstore. I'd just never run across it before, never had heard of it, and I think I was lucky to find it. There is some really fabulous stuff on the Gettysburg Campaign as well as the entire war.<br /><br />Contact the JCM at 304-725-8628 about available copies - they might be able to send you one.<br /><br />J.D.J David Petruzzihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14212575393266360359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7827905110534990587.post-80917102288894336842009-09-23T15:41:01.591-04:002009-09-23T15:41:01.591-04:00"as well as a new book on Chew's artiller..."as well as a new book on Chew's artillery battery"<br /><br />JD,<br /><br />Can you tell me more about this title?
