Coco's books flew right under my radar scope. Did not know they existed
until I saw them at the VC bookstore this past Sunday. I would imagine
there may be some overlap, yet there is probably enough "human interest"
stories out there to fill many more volumes.

Sherrie here:
Actually, a "human interest" book was one of my first hooks into Gettysburg
- a very old volume (the one I grew up with was pre-1938, as there was no
mention of the Peace Light as there is in modern versions) called _Human
Interest Stories of the Three-Days Battle at Gettysburg With Pictures_. I found it
in my grandparents' library, and by seven, I think I had it all but memorized.
Coco's books I find less interesting, frankly - I think I've read them one
and maybe a half times.

War and want to see these places. He's going to go down there and be standing
in a parking lot. I'm fighting for that kid." - Brian Pohanka, 1990
