Fresh eyes on the subject are always welcome, I hope this book casts fresh light on the 'futile gesture' mindset where it occurred.

You are right to post this. While historians, experts and specialists want detailed information, the public needs a more 'popular' history to keep memories alive, inform the public and get new blood interested in the time period. I work in the book business (fiction) and one thing we must do on a regular basis is promote new titles and find new web sites to follow the proliferation of 'social media.' We know our fan base is aging and we would like new fans.
