Two things, Val. First, I thoroughly enjoyed the Drawn and Decorated course these past 10 weeks. You were able to communicate not only valuable information, but also a sense that it was all do-able. Thank you so much.
Secondly, I’ve just begun to read ‘ This Republic of Suffering” which is a fascinating account of how the American Civil War changed the way people and the government dealt with the work of dying. The author is Drew Gilpin Faust. PBS has a 2 hour special on American Experience based on the book. It is a Ric Burns production called ” Death and the Civil War”.
What an awesome discovery !!
Awesome!

Thanks, Candice. I’ll put it on my reading list — it sounds fascinating.
