Happy holidays!

As 2025 concludes, I highlight our great spring 2026 season. (See the covers below.) My colleagues at @uscpress.bsky.social have done fantastic work these past 12 months, & each impressive cover is just an anticipation of the quality inside each book (print and digital). Happy (Reading) Holidays!

A timely reminder (see below). 'Tis the season! #amreading #booksale #ReadUP

Ed Hagerty's definitive biography of Richard Anderson just hit the warehouse and can be purchased from @uscpress.bsky.social Anderson's war spanned firing on Ft. Sumter to the surrender at Appomattox--the whole career of Confederate cause can be assessed through his life. #CivilWarHistory #AmHist

Over here at @uscpress.bsky.social I am listening to Walter Edgar and Alfred Turner talking about 25 years of Walter Edgar's Journal on SC Public Radio! Necessary listening for all South Carolinians and those passionate about American history. www.southcarolinapublicradio.org/podcast/walt...
