Did you know that many of the men and women of the American Revolution sat for photographs in the mid-nineteenth century? This chronicles my search for those portraits.

Publication Date Revealed
Thank you to everyone who's emailed me about this book. I just heard from the publisher that the book should be in print by June of 2010! Cross your fingers.
Just out of curiosity, wonder how my ancestor, Samuel Todd (1752-1852) of Plymouth, CT, and Delaware Co., NY fits in terms of last survivors? I have a photo copy of an alleged sketch of him done by a "tramp" given a free meal though it may be his son Samuel, who was a veteran of 1812.
Any chance you can get some advance copies? Looking forward to hearing you discuss this book with our audience at the American Independence Museum's event on November 14 at 1pm. Interested parties can get details at www.independencemuseum.org. And congratulations on the due date for your latest "baby"!
Maureen Taylor is known as The Photo Detective for her work solving photo mysteries. The Wall Street Journal called her "the nation's foremost historical photo detective."

Hi Julie,
No advance copies yet...it's just entered the design phase. Can't wait to see pages.
