Longtime reader here. Thank you for NRO and especially for the Corner, and for being accessible to your faithful readers.
In light of James S. Robbins’ column today on the new National Medal of Honor Day (March 25), may I humbly suggest my new book Stealing the General: The Great Locomotive Chase and the First Medal of Honor. The book tells the story of the Civil War raid that led to the first awards of the MOH (which Mr. Robbins mentions in his article).
Publishers Weekly praised the book as “gripping . . . a fast-paced, extremely well-told tale,” and the Wall Street Journal called it “masterly . . . magnificent and definitive.” Stealing the General is a selection of the Book-of-the-Month Club, the History Book Club, and the Military Book Club; and Paramount Pictures recently optioned the film rights for the book. For more information, visit www.stealingthegeneral.com.
I think the NRO staff and readers would enjoy the book. Many thanks for your consideration.
