Some of my favorite commentary from Foote was when he was talking about the men both North and South who fought in that war. It was as if he personally knew them.

You and me both. I bought his books for my ex and when we divorced, he took them! Funny, he never fought for custody of our son. I'm not sure if that says more about my ex or about Mr. Foote's books!
He was a true Southern gentleman and there are not that many of those left...suave demeanor, draw-you-in-accent, dashing manner, quaint and respectful. Class all the way!
