Apr 2014

Started a reread of James H. Street's By Valor and Arms. This novel is takes place during the navel battles on the Mississippi and if memory serves me right the battle of Vicksburg. I just realized that the title is the motto of the state of Mississippi, Virtute et armis.

Concurrently I am reading Brother Petroc's Return by S.M.C.. A novel novel with an early renaissance monk emerging from suspended animation to life in the 20th century.
