BAD NEWS

In a few seconds you should have been taken to RANDOM HOUSE for the Disney's America chapter from Work in Progress as Chotank.com had done for over four years. However, on August 23, 2002, the "Lessons Learned" chapter was deleted from the RANDOM HOUSE website, and Disney Documents Plus can link no longer to it. The link remains below if you wish to check it for yourself. Please try to borrow Work in Progress from your local public or university library. Chotank.com recommends that you use OCLC, Columbus, Ohio databases to locate the book's details and libraries that have copies in their collection. If you don't have access to the OCLC databases check with your local public or university library for guidance.

Of significance to Disney's America researchers is the publication in 2003 of Shelby Foote: A Writer's Life by C. Stuart Chapman by the University Press of Mississippi. Shelby Foote became the key spokesperson for Protect Historic America. Chapman, in 2005 a Congressional press secretary in Washington, briefly addresses Foote's influence in defeating Eisner's plans, but more importantly gives the world the first biography of the historian/novelist made famous by Ken Burns' documentary on the Civil War. Chapman uses Avon Edward Foote's Chotankers as the cited reference for the Northern Virginia history of Shelby's family in the University Press of Mississippi bio book.

RANDOM HOUSE publishes the three volume series, The Civil War by Shelby Foote.
