"Seize the Day!" is the distillation of the best available practices now deployed by the cutting-edge cadre of reenactors. They create a stream of magic "We were there" moments by creating organizations and weekend events focused on actually living the life of Civil War soldiers and civilians. The chapters draw heavily on Augustus Kautz's "Customs of Service," written during the war for exactly the same reason: To let soldiers know what was expected of them. Watson brings 38 years of experience as a journalist to bear on the topic of "operational" Civil War events. In addition to "Seize the Day!" he is the author of "history heavy" Civil War fiction, including "Brother William's War" and "Jesse Ludlam's Wars," available from Amazon. "Seize the Day" is published by Broken Lance Enterprises of Stroudsburg, Pa. For more: www.wmjwatson.com
