Stop Action: Football in Vaught-Hemingway

So watch real carefully and you’ll see the flyover, and even the Auburn band spelling out their UA logo.

This was done by Robert Jordan of Media Productions on campus. Pretty cool.

It's a topic where I've had a virtually unlimited capacity, since I was a child. I read a really fine bio about 10-15 years ago, but it was a mass market paperback, and I do not take care of those, mu ..

If you can bear any more Alexander, the Peter Green bio is delightful. ..

Yes, it' s very clear on comparing accounts of Alexander versus other accounts, making the Arrian into a "one book" by balancing between the various texts that have come down. I have two, and discover ..

As a history nerd of the First Order, I have to say that I have relished these posts. ..

Aren't those awesome? I don't have one, but next time I read any of those authors, I'm getting the Landmark. Doesn't the Arrian provide notes checking facts vs. other authors? There's not "one book" f ..

My father, a WWII veteran, played golf with a friend regularly. The friend told my dad he had seen Charles Durning on TV talking about his combat experiences in WWII. My father's friend said he served ..

The Landmark editions of books from Greek historians have wonderful maps (and wonderful illustrations generally) along with really nice commentary. I've read the Landmark Arrian (which is Arrian's bio ..

Yeah, I picked up on the B&N bargain table two West Point Military Atlases, of WW2 and the Civil War, and they are invaluable. Whereas the stupid book I was reading on the Army of the TN has NO MA ..

TBA: the only histories I've read that included "good" maps are those in the series of volumes collectively titled United States Army in World War II. Each volume contains a comprehensive appendix of ..

What Grant's memoirs chiefly need, IMHO, is a fresh set of maps. I've not seen one that doesn't reprint the originals, which are no model of clarity. ..

Yes, this has been a great series of posts, NMC. Happily enough, I came across a nice Library of America edition of the Memoirs at the flea market here in Jackson last weekend. It's a much better copy ..

Yes, enjoying them a lot. I only wish Keith was still alive to read them - you guys could have conducted quite the dialog in this space! ..

I have thoroughly enjoyed these posts. FYI, here is a link to topo maps. Zooming in on the Jackson/Vicksburg area you can view older topos, but they only go back into the 30's generally. Around Jackso ..
