I bought a cannon ball (6 lber) at Gettysburg that was dug up at Manassas battlefiel. A truelly manly collectable

Stay away from these two books. Foote is alright by not great and Shaara is historical fiction. The hotel is called the Cashtown Inn and is located 7 miles west of Gettysburg. Its a cool place to get lunch or dinner
