| Information on the book by William Todd, compiled by Pvt. Simpson: I paid about $50 plus shipping and handling. It�s a hard copy and they print their books on demand, so allow 4 to 8 weeks for delivery. I found it was best to email the company requesting a copy. This was the first book written about the 79th New York and for a regimental history it was an interesting read. The Seventy-Ninth Highlanders, New York Volunteers in the War of the Rebellion, by William Todd.
