Not bad! Just some additional trivia you might find interesting. A roan horse is one that usually has an intermingling of silvery white hairs among a predominantly darker color. So, I'm now assuming that the "dark horse" mentioned in chapter 1 might be a dark blue roan (rather than a basic black one). As for the Mason-Dixon Line? That was originally the boundary line between Maryland and Pennsylvania, as established by two surveyors of those names back in the mid-1700's (when the first 13 States were still British colonies). But, of course, by the 1860's, it had acquired its presently much broader meaning. Which is, basically, every state between--and southward of--the Mississippi, Ohio, and Potomac Rivers.

Author's Response: Thanks for the awesome trivia.
