A CIVIL WAR WEEKEND WITH CLINT JOHNSON!

CALLING ALL CIVIL WAR BUFFS!

Exclusive Dates are November 20-22, 2009
at Buffalo Tavern Bed and Breakfast
in West Jefferson, Ashe County, North Carolina

Doc, the Innkeeper at Buffalo Tavern Bed and Breakfast, is pleased to announce a weekend with Civil War writer and expert Clint Johnson! On Friday night, Saturday morning and evening, and Sunday morning, Clint (a member of the 26th NC Regiment) will be sharing Civil War stories from his book, Civil War Blunders, one of 13 booked he has authored. He will be spending the weekend at Buffalo Tavern in close conversations, one-on-one, with other Civil War buffs, a very select group of folks who love the Civil War and its stories. He'll be telling true stories about battles fought in the nude, near-sighted generals riding into the wrong lines, generals dueling with each other instead of fighting the enemy, and other true stories of Civil War blunders and those who made the blunders! He will give instructions on how to safely fire a Civil War musket - and then let you do it (without the ball, of course).

The weekend includes a two-night stay, breakfast on Saturday and Sunday, a reception and meet and greet with Clint on Friday evening (conversation begins!), a copy of Clint’s book, Civil War Blunders (signed, of course), and hours of great conversations and demonstrations of Civil War stories and memorabilia. And you never know if he will be a Confederate or a Federal soldier. Or both. Clint wants your stories too! Plus, of course, you can expect the warm hospitality of Buffalo Tavern and Doc, the Innkeeper.

The weekend promises to be very special and is limited to 4 couples. Rates for the weekend are $319 (Governor’s room), $339 (Flapper’s or Madam’s rooms) or $399 (The President’s Suite). The rate is complete for two, plus tax, with check-in beginning at 4 p.m. The Civil War Weekend begins at 8 p.m. on Friday night and ends at 1130 a.m. on Sunday morning with Clint’s book signing. Reservations can only be made by calling Doc at 1-877-615-9678. The weekend is not open for regular online reservations.

Check out Clint’s web site, www.clintjohnsonbooks.com and join us on November 20, 2009 for a great two-night Civil War Weekend at Buffalo Tavern! Call Doc today at 1-877-615-9678 to reserve your room. Great stories of the Civil War await your arrival!
