story he wrote as a memorial to his high school mathematics
teacher, "A Tribute to the Lady With The Blue Hair and the

It was falling heir to the 1862 Springfield rifle that his
great-grandfather John Wallis, a private in Company E of the
19th Iowa Volunteer Regiment, carried in the Civil War that
launched Mr. Wallis' interest into this fascinating and important
period of our nation's history. John Wallis served in the
Western campaigns of General Grant, and was later a
prisoner-of-war confined at Camp Ford in Tyler, Texas. As part
of his preparation, the author has toured the Civil War sites
where his novel leads the reader.
