I recently read "Letters to Lizzie: The Story of Sixteen Men in the Civil War and the Woman Who Connected Them All" who lived in my area in southern NJ during the civil war. It is the first time I have read so many letters connecting a group of people in the war. Very interesting and at time heart wrenching. The author did do research to provide information, as much as possible, post war.

Your article really brings out the other side of the men that fought and thier families.

Thanks.

PS, I mentioned a couple of weeks ago I was taking my 2 granddaughters to Gettysburg. They absolutely enjoyed the trip. I was pleasantly suprised at how much they wanted to see and do. It had been about 25 years for me since being there and they have done a great job with the battlefield and area.
