Shelby Foote

If you ever watched the CIVIL WAR series that made Ken Burns famous, you will remember Shelby Foote. He was the Southern gentleman that spoke so frequently through the series. He brought a warm and gentle touch to the series. I bought the 3 volume set of books he wrote on the Civil War. It's a must if you are interested in such reading. He'll be missed. His volumes on the Civil War were rated the #15th best nonfiction work in the USA.
