Did you ever read his Novel about Ghetty'sburg? Dixie would love it! LOL It's an alternative history of what would have happened had Lee taken Longstreets advice on the second day of battle and used Pickets division to sweep around the Unions southern flank on little round top and cut off Meades line of supply. It's actually an entertaining read but also shows that Newt and his co-writer are not military strategist by a long shot.
