I am an author. I write history and my new book is about the Irish Brigade and the Corcoran Legion in the American Civil War 1861-1865. It covers background including the Flight of the Wild Geese and then describes the battles that both units fought in the Civil War. The book should be out early next year. I am interested in obtaining copies of letters or photos about this conflict. I would also invite review and comment of the draft book when it is ready next year. If interested, please contact me by email: maeggles61@gmail.com. Thanks.

I'm interested in Michael Corcoran, who I find a fascinating, courageous, and, at times, repulsive figure.
Thanks for your comments
I'll email you when the draft of my book is done and will send it to you.
I think that you will find it to be interesting reading.
Best wishes,
Mike Eggleston
