Book Signing: Ty Seidule and Doug Jones

Presented by Alabama Booksmith at Alabama Booksmith

Ty Seidule – Robert E. Lee and Me. General Seidule’s book is the definitive, plain-words truth about one of the most important subjects in our nation – told by the best crendentialed living American. This Son-of-the-South idolized Robert E. Lee throughout his youth and early military service. Today, as a retired the Brigadeer General, and former head of the History Department at West Point, his studies of the Lost Cause have given him an honest evaluation that he shares with readers. Pulitzer Prize historians Rick Atkinson, Ron Chernow, and James McPherson, as well as General David Petraeus praise this book and all agree it presents the truth and should be required reading. TY SEIDULE commanded a cavalry unit of the 82nd Airborne Division in the Gulf War, and is a presidential advisor to the World War Two Museum in New Orleans. He is one of of our most respected authors of military history.

Doug Jones – Bending Toward Justice. Senator Doug Jones’ account of the investigation, trial, and conviction of the two surviving perpetrators of the infamous bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church in 1963 is one of the most important books ever published on the subject. Jones, who as US Attorney was responsible for prosecuting the two former Klansmen, fills the retelling with compelling details from his unique perspective on the case. DOUG JONES is the former junior senator from Alabama. In 2017, he became the first Democrat to win a Senate election in Alabama since 1992. As U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Alabama from 1997 to 2001, Jones prosecuted two former Ku Klux Klan members for their roles in the racially-motivated 1963 16th Street Baptist Church Bombing that took the lives of four girls. He also secured an indictment against Centennial Olympic Park bomber Eric Rudolph.
