Another book from the Texas Book Festival, and another really interesting author who I had the pleasure to hear speak there.
Unlike the Utley - Beeman or Baker books, Mr. Akers' isn't so much an authoritative history as it is a collection of stories. Many are autobiographical, some emphasize some historic events or more likely people, and all are amusing.
Among the topics: civil war re-enactments, buying historic artifacts, and then there are just plain old stories told over drinks.
