David H. Jones

David H. Jones is author of a historical fiction titled Hold At All Hazards: Bigelow’s Battery At Gettysburg, July 2, 1863 to be released by Casemate Publishers in August 2021. His previous novel, Two Brothers: One North, One South told the story of the Prentiss brothers of Baltimore who chose opposite times and were mortally wounded moments and yards apart during the Breakthrough Battle at Petersburg on April 2, 1865. Years of research and discovery of two Confederate forts near Pamplin Historical Park helped create the essential authenticity of his writings. Always intrigued by history, he also spearheaded the placement of the 6th Maryland Infantry (US) monument on the Breakthrough Trail at Pamplin Historical Park and oversaw reconstruction of Prickett’s Fort (a pre-Revolutionary War refuge fort) near Fairmont, West Virginia. A graduate of Kentucky Military Institute and Babson College, a former Navy officer, entrepreneur and business executive, he currently resides in Denton County, Texas.
