have you actually read BLACKS IN BLUE AND GRAY??? (if not, how would you know what the differences are?)

"Blacks in Blue and Gray" is out of print. Can't even find a copy in the library or through inter-library loan (I'm in California, so that is not so suprising).

I can only go by what you have attributed to Blackerby, versus what I have read from Jordan.
