Tim Snyder's Book Available Up and Down the C&O Canal  

Tim Snyder's book, Trembling in the Balance: The Chesapeake and Ohio Canal During the Civil War, published by Blue Mustang in July, aside from being available in the five National Park Service C&O Canal bookstores served by Eastern National at Georgetown, Great Falls, Williamsport, Hancock, and Cumberland , is also available at the  bookstore in in the park at Harpers Ferry, West Virginia. All of these stores are within easy walking distance of the venerable canal and the settings of all these bookstores brings Snyder's words to life.

To really bring his words to life, Tim has been doing readings and talks at many of the Park Service events held during the 150th anniversary of the American Civil War at these locations that marked a 184.5 mile long border between North and South. Check each park's websites if you're in the area and you may be able to hear one of Tim's talks as well. Then take a stroll along the canal and poke around the locks, lockhouses, and other reminders of the canal's past glory.
