Tell Dan what you think on the CONTACT page!      

                         What should be the next project? What are your suggestions? Hopes? Fears? Demands...? 

1)* The "What If..." book Done for High School level --in process!

2) An actual true book on something: (e.g. a Civil War figure or battle).

3) Maybe a book on Genesis. Yes. Expect heresy. Stand clear and not grounded.

4) Something else?...  

    Dan’s experience gives an idea of the forces fighting for control of his head: He worked for ten seasons as a Ranger/Historian at Fredericksburg-Spotsylvania National Military Park, and for twelve years before that as a Ranger at Shenandoah National Park. He has a BA in History from W&M ('69), an MA in English ('71) and Ed.D. ('88) from U.VA. He has taught for 42 years: social studies in middle school, English and creative writing in high school, and professional education at the university level. Dan retired from the faculty of the Commonwealth Governor’s School  in 2011, but remains connected with CGS as an occasional speaker and consultant. He has delivered presentations at national conferences and has published, in addition to the books featured here, poems, articles in professional journals and Civil War blogs, and books on the teaching of English.    Dan and his wife of 52 years live on a small farm in Virginia with ten cats, three dogs, two horses, two chickens, an assortment of keyboards (not fully housebroken) and a few semiferal poems, which will consent to be fed, but NOT picked up and taken to the vet.
