It so happens that today’s sesquicentennial blog is identical to my regular “On This Day” item: For May 18, 1863.
This Sesquicentennial “On This Day” feature has turned out to be very interesting … and I’ve found quite a bit more material than I initially expected. So, in parallel with doing the blog, I am also in the process of compiling them – with some expansion – into book form. My working title is Idaho: Year One – A Chronology of Idaho’s First Year as a Territory. If all goes well, I should have the book ready for publication by the end of summer (but we’ll see).
