The latest issue of North and South has a hilarious little story about Jim Limber and the Davis family written by Chuck Lyons. Check out some of these references
“Jim was soon treated as a part of the Davis family, a precious part.”
“Joe’ s death led the Davises’ to cling strongly to little Jim.”
Wonderful stuff Chuck – whoever you are.

"In this stunning and well-researched book, Kevin Levin catches the new waves of the study of memory, black soldiers, and the darker underside of the Civil War as well as anyone has... Levin is both superb scholar and public historian, showing us a piece of the real war that does now get into the books, as well as into site interpretation."
David Blight, Author of Race and Reunion

Exactly what kind of deeply-buried psychological ego are guys like that trying to stroke by writing stuff like that? Seriously, that kind of language makes Jim Limber sound like a pet dog. Is that really necessary?
