Teddy Bears Teach about the Civil War



New Blog Coming Soon

PAPA WAS A BOY IN GRAY
Prize-Winning Author 
Mary W. Schaller
& Robert E. Tour the Country in 2001
(Although the tour is over, the reports are timeless.)
Summer Tour: Four teddy bears (Robert E. Lee, Ulysses S. Grant, Abraham Lincoln, and Sacagawea) accompanied Mary W. Schaller on her 2001 book tour for Papa Was A Boy In Gray.  The bears (with a little help from the author) wrote reports, highlights, stories, and posed for photos of all the Summer Excitement.  Now you can read these reports in the upcoming blogs. 


Book Summary: In the closing years of the twentieth century, a small group of women gave new meaning to the words "living history."  Some were merely old; others were spectacularly ancient.  All of them shared a unique position in America's history.  These ladies were the surviving daughters of the men who fought for the Confederacy between 1861-1865.  Their fathers left their indelible imprints upon their daughters, whose living legacy now casts a beam of light upon the vastly different world when Papa Was A Boy In Gray.

Mary W. Schaller is the prize-winning author of four plays and seven historical novels set in the English Renaissance. Over a million copies of her books have appeared in print world-wide.
