I suspect someone else may end up having to write that book using Wallace's data.   He has several filing cabinets full of photos and data sheets on VA, (WV, KY, TN) rifles.

Well great grandma Schreckengost said.  "thems's can do, thems's can't teach" so I guess Wallace is off doing rather than writing.
