Ladies and Gentlemen,
I am looking for books as a gift for a family member, he is retired Army, currently a ATC Instructor, he is interested in the Civil War and loves military non fiction books.
Light reading is not enough to keep him interested, serious reading is a must.
Thank you in advance for any and all help you can provide.
Lynn

Detailed and riveting.
He'll thank you.
Should he be interested in the Napoleonic Wars...I have the library.
Don't ask me about my military service or heroic acts...most of it is untrue.
Pronoun: Yes, SIR !
