Funny - I'm a lawyer too. I practiced for 12 years, now working for a judge. I wrote my thesis on military history, specifically the War of Northern Aggression (I had some original family documents unpublished at that time.)
You can keep the math. One of the reasons I selected my college was that there was no math requirement for graduation! I married a graduate of the Georgia Institute of Technology, and HE handles anything requiring large numbers. And a good thing too . . .
One of those monologues every educated person should know...
And you wrote on the Late Unpleasantness? (or The War as my 1871 Tennessee-born grandmother used to say). Very good. One of my greatgrandfathers died in the War, but the other was a minister who, though staying South, freed his slaves before the War. My only personal connection beyond that is through membership in a select Corps that, in an earlier incarnation, turned the tide at New Market in 1864 and provided a home for Professor Jackson in the 1850s.
