This book, like this account in general, is pretty eclectic. It'll probably contain miscellaneous facts and chapters that don't fit in any of my other books, along with some odd chapters here and there about my life and updates on my books if chapte...
I've just uploaded the introductory parts to three new books! They are called 'The Letters of Tench Tilghman,' 'The Letters of Richard Kidder Meade,' and 'The Letters of John Laurens!'
Also, I forgot to show it here, but a few weeks ago I finished my John Laurens/Richard Kidder Meade costume (cosplay, maybe? Unsure which word exactly applies to it 😂)!! I made the coat, waistcoat, epaulet, neck stock, and cockade from scratch, and modified the breeches, shirt, garters, and hat! I've put a picture below, which was taken before I put on my neck stock and tied my hair into a wrapped queue (you can see the neck stock ties poking out from behind the hat)!
When I get the time, I'll be making a book (titled 'A Soldier's Guide to Revolutionary War Uniforms') which will talk about rank insignia, materials, historical accuracy vs farb (my hat's colour and shape is a good example of farb, to be honest 😂), and will give you a guide as to how I made mine incase anyone else is interested in making one!
Have a nice day, everyone!! :D

Oh!! I almost forgot; I have a tumblr now! It's also called secondcarddown, though my regular profile picture wasn't working, so currently it's a portrait of William North (I told one of my friend's my profile picture wasn't working and showed them the portrait in its place, and he replied with 'That's because it's William North,' which I found funnier than I should have because I had recently read a letter in which Steuben was calling North lazy 😂).
