Posts Tagged ‘ForeWord Magazine Book of the Year Award Finalist’
While I was in England, I was delighted to find out that the two books I published in 2009 were the recipients of awards here in the States. Although good reviews and comments are always welcome and important to me, it is always gratifying to realize that others out there feel your work deserves an award.

The historical photographic chronicle, Crimean Memories: Artefacts of the Crimean War, photographed by me and written with my co-authors (Michael Vice and B.J. Small), received a 2010 Independent Publisher (IPPY) Silver Award for best reference book.

My most recent novel, The Gettysburg Conspiracy, received a 2010 Independent Publisher (IPPY) Bronze Award for best regional fiction. In addition, The Gettysburg Conspiracy was selected as a finalist in the ForeWord Magazine Book of the Year Award (BOTYA) for historical fiction.
