In 2008, mark served as the visiting senior lecturer of war studies at the Royal Military academy at sandhurst in the united kingdom. He is the author of eight books and he currently has two other books in the works. His presentation today is taken from his most recent work, the seventh West Virginia industry. It is coauthored. [applause] mark thank you. Before i give my presentation, i want to give you a little background about the seventh virginia infantry regiment. That is how it started out.
