Today is the official publication day for the paperback edition of Searching for Black Confederates<\/em> from the University of North Carolina Press<\/a>. The decision to wait over two years to issue a paperback edition reflects, in part, the strong sales of the hardback edition. I have all of you to thank for that.<\/p>\n Thanks to each and every one of you who has purchased and read the book. I also very much appreciate the many positive messages I have received as well as the many invitations to speak about the book.<\/p>\n UNC Press has been a pleasure to work with from the beginning. It\u2019s been a true honor to have a book published in their Civil War America series and I look forward to working with their team to bring my current project about Robert Gould Shaw to completion.<\/p>\n I am still accepting invitations to speak in person and over zoom about Searching for Black Confederates. <\/em>Contact me for more information<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Civil War Memory<\/strong><\/em> has moved to Substack<\/strong>!

<\/a>For those of you who haven\u2019t yet purchased the book you can order it direct from the publisher<\/a> at a 40% with the code: 01HOLIDAY. Of course, you can also order it from Amazon<\/a> or through your local independent bookstore<\/a>, which I strongly encourage.<\/p>\n
