Mowday Group
continued from page 8
Four of his books, including his first, on Fort Delaware, are Civil War themed. Three relate to Gettysburg, including “Pickett’s Charge: The Untold Story.” For “Emotional Gettysburg,” artist Karl Kuerner created 20 original paintings and Mowday wrote essays to go with them. Mowday is working with Kuerner on a book to complete a trilogy on the American Revolution’s Battle of the Brandywine.
He has also penned three true crime books: “Jailing the Johnston Gang: Bringing Serial Murderers to Justice,” “Stealing Wyeth” and “Small Town Cops in the Crosshairs: The 1972 Sniper Slayings of Policemen William Davis and Richard Posey.”
Information about all of Mowday’s books and his company’s services can be found at www.mowday.com. To contact Mowday, email mowday@mowday.com.
Mowday gives frequent talks on his books, writing, publishing and history. He believes in giving back to the community and has served as president of the boards of the Chester County Historical Society, Chester County Conference and Visitors Bureau and Brandywine Battlefield Park Associates. He was also a member of the Downingtown Main Street Association and the Valley Forge Park Alliance.
