Confessions of a Living Historian: A Decade of the Antics and Misadventures of a Civil War Reenactor is the story of Darin Richardson's first ten years as a Civil War reenactor in the most unlikeliest of places: Oregon, in the Pacific Northwest of the United States.

This book has it all: Escaped mental patients; The Edwin Incident; K-Mart Confederates; drunken escapades; Weasel and the Hicks, two social diseases; skinny-dipping at reenactments; the Rebel Rap; firearm blunders; interesting uses for coffee; an encounter with Bigfoot; nightmare trips to California reenactments; sexual encounters; belly dancers; a guy named Dub; hunaha, hu; being misquoted in newspapers; a trip of a lifetime to Tennessee and Georgia; The Ten Constants of Reenacting; outrageous questions asked by spectators, and views on hardcore reenactors and women who portray soldiers.
