I read everything John Jakes wrote my senior year of high school when a blizzard shut down Massachusetts (I think a neighbor felt sorry for me running out of library books). Later, when I took the Radcliffe Publishing Course, we had to create a mock group of books to publish and reached out to Jakes' agent to have him write a saga about Charlemagne. Apparently, he thought it sounded like great fun and gave us permission to use his name.CLMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03595294217111602231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15714418.post-26319108034331466672017-06-06T10:54:50.983-06:002017-06-06T10:54:50.983-06:00This is SUCH a great list. :)This is SUCH a great list. :)*ೃ༄ Jillianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14139487177036647728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15714418.post-48989915414346922472013-04-27T22:54:14.281-06:002013-04-27T22:54:14.281-06:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.marufhosenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09759832982765986535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15714418.post-80267129433022358532012-08-23T20:49:20.720-06:002012-08-23T20:49:20.720-06:00I loved The Class of 1846.

I even got emotional when reading about Stonewall Jackson's death, and I do NOT get emotional. :-)<br /><br />-AyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15714418.post-17339271458556534362012-08-14T20:32:42.875-06:002012-08-14T20:32:42.875-06:00Great lists!

I have Shelby Foote's Civil War Series sitting on my book shelf but have not read it yet.Brian Josephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15139559400312336791noreply@blogger.com
