David Jones Reads From "Two Brothers: One North, One South"

Civil War buffs unite! 

Come hear David Jones, sought-after Civil War speaker, at a stirring presentation based on his book, Two Brothers: One North, One South.  David has created a keenly accurate based-on-true-life novel spanning four years of the Civil War, with Walt Whitman ministering to the Prentiss brothers, who fought on opposite sides of the war.

David will address questions that arise around the accuracy of historical fiction, such as "Can it be as accurate as non-fiction?" and "How did he resolve conflicting original sources?"  He'll be illustrating his talk with slides.
