Patrick Griffith-LITTLE BIGHORN APPENDICES

[patrick422]

I publish public domain books and i was going to do LBH book, i had know idea of the conspiracies that surrounded this battle until i looked in to it and found the (Littlebighorn.info) site, and others, i should have known because of the lack of survivors.
I named the book LITTLE BIGHORN APPENDICES because it starts with the appendix of Indian fights and fighters - Brady, Cyrus Townsend, 1861-1920, Mr Townsend did a lot of research and writing of letters to the survivors of the battle, and wrote letters to GENERAL NELSON A.MILES to get evidence about the affidavit (Mary Adams affidavit).
I based the book of the appendix, getting all the books and articles i could find and including them in the book, i am not making a lot of money on this book because it is such a big file, i could have raised the price of the the book so that i could make money but i would rather have the info out there so others can get hooked LBH like i did.

Judas. I truly hope this a joke. Really.

"...i am not making a lot of money on this book because it is such a big file...." Patrick, you're not making ANY money on this book for many, many reasons, of which my current favs are because there may be a Just God in heaven, and because you're surely ill read and near illiterate....

"I publish public domain books and i was going to do LBH book, i had know idea of the conspiracies that surrounded this battle until i looked in to it and found the (Littlebighorn.info) site, and others, i should have known because of the lack of survivors. "

Patrick, look, you can't write, you're unfamiliar with the battle and ......gha.....djosoy......manamanamana..............

Okay, look.

What in the world would this book offer that isn't found for free on the WEB? Aside from the addition of your functional illiteracy, I mean. You don't know the difference between "know" and "no", I take it, but you're a publisher? Publisher of a book about a battle you've recently discovered and immediately get wrong because you apparently met idiot conspiracy nuts first?

"The Little Bighorn disaster will remain always in the minds of the American people as one of the greatest horrors of the last century."

If only. The last century was the 20th. The battle took place in the 19th, 1876 to be exact. Currently, we're in the 21st century. Got it? In neither previous century was it the greatest anything beyond the worst avoidable disaster to befall cavalry in the American West.

You should correspond with herosrest, strange, and Wiggs (you may be one of them) and publish that. Comedy gold.

Unless the book comes free with 5 gallons of gas or with condoms at Vespers at the churches of too hip clerics, your best bet is distribution limited to prison libraries and low end hospitals for the elderly, providing hours of uproarious fun for both people who never finished fifth grade and those ancients blind and feeble to mark up with red pencil and feel young again.

Do the names Graham and/or Dustin ring a bell? No?

No.

Anyway, the internet has it all.

[walsh]

You ripped him a new one.

[patrick422]

the stuff that is out there free is all jumbled up, and the books i put in the kindle book are not published on the kindle and articles were hard to find and convert, not everybody wants to read pdf files, thanks for making a new member feel good, you are a hurtful person, iam a member of this forum and plan on staying around.

[quincannon]

God forgive me but I am in complete (well almost) agreement with Richard MacLeod here. This book will not appear on my Christmas list.

If you wish to know why, pick up a copy of Hansen's "Alamo Reader", and see just how these things are done. If you want to bring a valuable addition to the compendium of knowledge on the Little Big Horn, attempting to follow Hansen's example is the place to start, and not with Cyrus Townsend Brady.

On the other hand if you just wish to see your name in print, and make a couple of bucks from the rubes, you have accomplished what you set out to do.

And may I add my welcome to the big leagues. And yes DC is a hurtful person. He has the tact of a rattlesnake, the diplomacy of a wildcat in heat, but he is frightfully honest, and you would do well to listen to him on this subject matter.

I downloaded the free sample from amazon. Looks like a good deal to me for 2.99. I'm buying. Not sure I'm much of a kindle reader but I have the Kindle app on my phone and computer. Just as long as I don't walk into the fountain at the mall while reading it.

Amazon has Fred's ebook listed at 39.99.

Britt: It is not price but rather content. Yes it may be a convience to get this book and put it on the shelf or whatever, next to others that contain some of the same information, for instance Brady or Cozzens. What would be better I believe is a format like Hansen, where he collected over a great many years everything contemporary to the times on the Alamo battle, and went on to collect every bit of testimony, newspaper articles, interviews and the like, so finding contemporary information about the subject matter is as easy as looking something up in the Yellow Pages. For instance the Zuber retelling of the alleged escape from the Alamo by Louis Rose is given in full, for the scholar to examine, not just some broad brush treatment.

Now if someone could collect all of Reno's or Benteen's letters, all of the surviving letters of other participants, a collection of papers, articles, interviews and the like, under one cover, that would be something of great value. I feel another collection of Forsyth, Miles, Brady, Carter to be less so. Cozzens already did it. Why is there further need?

[Dark Cloud]

Good for you, bc. Keep us informed if you no anyting gnu after reeding it. Rest assured that if editing is needed, his vast understanding of the issues involving the battle will aid his rhetorical charms and simply ensorcel the public into Custerland.

Being off by a century, I know, it's just petty.

This is a xampal of reason Custerland is Area 51 for historians no wat?

Actually, who gives a crap [WOW! That's not the word I wrote! Try this one... s**t.] I, personally, love him to death. There is more uproarious laughter in that post than I have read in years. DC put more feeling and more live dialogue in a dozen or so sentences than I have been able to put in 500 pages.

Plus, it's good to see him calling on God... there's hope yet. It has to be the Roman in me.

DC... you and I are gonna have that JW Black yet!

Best wishes,
Fred.

[quincannon]

Fred: Some of my best friends have the tact of a rattlesnake and the diplomacy of a wildcat in heat and I like them. As a matter of fact I have the tact of a rattlesnake and the diplomacy of a wildcat in heat and you have not offered me any of that J W Black which of course I would refuse and opt instead for Bushmills Single Malt Irish. See I told you. Yes, and when DC gets religion I will be buying the J W Black for both of you, and Benedict will conclude that the second coming is near at hand, the bells will toll in Saint Peters, and lasting peace will break out in the Middle East. But one does hope.

[fred]

Funny you should say that... I just bought a bottle of Black Bush last night.

Best wishes,
Fred.

[quincannon]

I will be over about 1900 your time. Please set out the crystal. Cut glass is unworthy of Black Bush.

[jag]

Well, I liked it that DC admitted, committed, submitted, included Area 51 in his dialogue. Ahem... someone out there is having some kind of influence upon him. I like the idea that he thinks the aliens have a better chance of landing upon the earth than any god of doing the same. Then again who knows maybe their tech will we be so advanced, we'll be forced to bow down to them. Good show DC. ;D

[bc]

Well, dc isn't quite ready for a prime time tour with Steven Wright but he did dumb this one down enough for this commoner to get some laughs. His dry wit really shows and is replete in his radio commentary but you have to be on the same dry intellectual wavelength to appreciate it. Listen for the ironies.

Meanwhile over in Area 51, this stock forum, I frequent since I started trading stock options, has a wacko trying to hawk his get rich quick options program who openly admits to being kidnapped and levitated out his bedroom window by not just regular ol aliens, but grey aliens. So beware of the grey ones.

New Knew Gnus from the ebook. In 1877 Col. Sturgis took the 7th on forced marches of 50 to 60 miles a day for 3 or 4 days during their pursuit of Chief Joseph and the Nez Perce. French, Moylan, and Godfrey, among others were WIA in 1877 actions.

Downside of Kindle is that there is no pagination since you can change print size. Therefore you never know where you are in a chapter or book. There is no easy way to skip ahead or back a number of pages at a time as you have to go page by page.
