On the left side of this blog, I have added a list of the people who I have collected quotations on, either made by them personally, or made about them by their contemporaries. As the number of quotes and people quoted increase, I will update this count on a weekly basis (give or take). Also, I will try to add a new “quote of the day” every day. Today I moved George McClellan's quote off and added one about A.P. Hill. On a less frequent basis I hope to post a quote with more detailed background and discussion every week or so. This will be a regular feature in my blog. Finally, the pictures that accompany each post are taken around Antietam National Battlefield as I am out and about on my volunteering days. Thanks to those of you already who are encouraging me and providing me with your suggestions.

Hey Jim where are the quotes?

Hi John
ReplyDeleteThe quote count is just the number of quotes that I have collected in my database. Each week, I add a few more as I transcribe them from books I am reading. I would like to link the names on my list to their set of quotes but havent found a way to do that yet. Anyone out there who has any ideas, I am all ears. See you at the park John!
