Butch Holcombe has over thirty years experience relic hunting, and is the publisher of American Digger Magazine, a bi-monthly publication of early American artifacts. He was the author of the original Never Mace A Skunk, as well as numerous published articles. Known for his humorous style, it's been said that he is "Lewis Grizzard with a metal detector." Charles Harris has been telling stories and writing articles on Civil War relic hunting since 1971 with over 90 to his credit. Some have been serious with a very valid historical context, but some have been very humorous as exhibited in this new publication. He is the author of Civil War Relics of the Western Campaigns, 1861-1865, a standard reference work.
