Corrected already. But thanks for the snark.
@exlarson Enjoyed the book, but how could Pvt. John Thompson serving at Fort Sumter be from Northern Ireland when Northern Ireland didn't exist in 1861?

Synchronicity.
TFW you finish @exlarson’s “The Demon of Unrest” on the plane ride to India and stumble across this guy’s portrait

I like that: "the moment of emptiness."
@exlarson The book deserves the accolades! I’m in the midst of reading it, fast approaching the moment of emptiness I expect to feel at the conclusion of such an engaging book.

Thanks, and happy new year!
3/3 Finally, rounding out the years book list was @jimburneka ‘s “Overcoming Tuesday”, Dennis Smith’s “Report from Engine Company 82 and finally, my hands down favorite book of the year, as was on many lists, the incomparable and always enjoyable @exlarson with “The Demon of Unrest”.
