Note to Sons

"Irish Brogue" and "Talking Like a Pirate" actually have very little in common, and are certainly not interchangeable. To the best of my knowledge no leprechauns in any form of literature have said "Arrrr, me mateys!"

I've seen this book mentioned a few times. AFAIK, Mom hadn't read it, her conclusions were based on genealogical research, including diaries and such. Hmm, the Missoula Public Library has this book. I may end up doing the 50-book challenge by default this year. :-p

Webb writes well. I haven't (yet) read Born Fighting, though I've read other books he's written. His first novel, Fields of Fire, is a real classic that has been on the Marine Corps professional reading list for the past 20 or so years.
