Love his work, HJ. Some of it has a near photographic qualiy to it.

ALABAMA CORPS OF CADETS CALL TO BATTLE

You might enjoy this bit of history about the Corp of Cadets during the war. https://www.alabamapioneers.com/university-of-alabama-cadet-corps/ Here's a pic of some. All who served and didn't return received honorary degrees.

I was thinking the same thing; every little detail is so wonderfully rendered in his work.

Glad that letter answering the questions survives. Neat history from one who lived it.

The sign of true art I think.

Beautiful work. Here is Jackson's appraisal of Turner Ashby, compliments of Wikipedia:

"As a partisan officer I never knew his superior; his daring was proverbial; his powers of endurance almost incredible; his tone of character heroic, and his sagacity almost intuitive in divining the purposes and movements of the enemy."
Turner was killed near the end of battle at Good's Farm as Jackson retreated from Winchester, VA.

I got the full set of DVD's on Deadwood & watch thru them often. One thing David Munch has said in interviews is that if he had it to do over again he would have written episodes to bring back Keith Carridine as Hickok in flashback. Hickok was killed off too soon.

Thanks for the Jackson quote. I enjoyed it.

Just went online to read that. Glad to hear the original cast will be back, but we'll miss Powers Boothe!

I loved Deadwood!

Here's one that I like. A well worn working Cowboy's hat with loads of character.
