Books: August 2009 Archives

Author Janet L. Bucklew will be speaking about her new book on Dr. Henry Janes at the York Emporium at 7:00 PM on Friday, September 4.

For the September "First Friday" celebration in downtown York, the York Emporium is hosting a talk/book signing by Janet L. Bucklew, historian and former seasonal ranger at the battlefield in Gettysburg. She has just completed research into primary sources and published a new work on Dr. Henry Janes, a surgeon/volunteer who was at the battle. Her talk is scheduled to take place on Friday, September 4 at 7:00 PM. It is free and open to the public, and light refreshments will be served.

Details and a little more info can be found on the York Emporium's webpage for the event.

The York Emporium is one of the finest used book stores in the region, and is located at 343 W. Market Street (the old Lincoln Highway) in York, Pennsylvania.

I have signed a contract with Ten Roads Publishing to reprint Gettysburg Glimpses: True Stories for the Battlefield and make it more widely available than the previous self-published edition through Xlibris, which will be out-of-print and unavailable shortly. Ten Roads, a new company based in Gettysburg, will handle the distribution and sales of the reissued book. I am quite pleased that the co-owners have seen fit to offer to republish my book, as well as the follow up Gettysburg Glimpses 2: More True Stories from the Battlefield. I look forward to working with them over the years on other projects.
