Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys, of course! (Long before Hugh Hefner made that magazine). Tis a small world at IUOMA, indeed!
My uncle in Chicago is William Boyd, but no relation to the Hopalong Cassidy one.

Definitely let me know about Volume II :)
Also....Does a piece need to be completed for each member doing the book? .... Thinking ahead...

At least you'd know they'd be well-armed.

I've kind of been kicking around the fact that Alexander absorbed the existing armies of the various territories as he mad his way through them. How funny would it have been if he'd managed to enlist the help of a bunch of rowdy Texans?

I wanted to post a photograph of the book as it stands - BUT I left my stick at the photography shop - I was getting a million cat photographs done. Jen/Austin , definitely do an unrestrained version and copy it or as Angie says - a combo. It will really be worth it - so far its a beaut!

I'm right there with ya, Jen. I've been going over the same conundrum all week!
