Just received back my proof of the first 100 pages of "Eureka Gras" The photos look good and the copy needs little editing.  Already getting interest in the book -- looking for someone to do the Foreword.

Katrina Book in the burner

Well, after almost six years, finally, I am in a mood to do the Book that I have regarded as "not in my lifetime"
So far, I have about 150 pages to the good
Anyone out there care to do the review?

Bay St Louis Book Review

I wish to thank Charles Templeton for his review on one of my books.

The esoteric histories being researched and printed are not only interesting but entertaining and Dan Ellis has become a master of this genre. I thoroughly enjoyed my read and plan to to read all of Dan's books about this area and about Eureka Springs, AR. Dan has certainly done his research on a micro level, using interviews with locals, court documents, and the earliest records he could obtain. Dan engages the reader with his history and provides maps, drawings and pictures to make you feel a part of a unique historical environment. Those who love early architecture as a geographical indicator of cultural relevance will be enthralled by his discussion of the earliest churches in the area. Whether you are from the area, plan on visiting the area, or just plain love history, then this book is a must read.
