Confusion

Shiloh brings to mind a very popular children's book series by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor. Shiloh is a hunting beagle mistreated by his owner and rescued by a boy named Marty.
 
Shiloh is also a Civil War battlefield from 1862 in which 24,000 were killed, wounded, or gone missing.
 
Now Shiloh is a little girl born into pseudo-humble privilege in Africa.
 
I can only hope that these sequel titles won't ring true for her: Saving Shiloh and Shiloh Season.


Sneak preview the all-new Yahoo.com. It's not radically different. Just radically better.

I actually kind of like the name. It's better than Bluebell!

Ok, why can I only think of the Neil Diamond song when I hear Shiloh? Yes, I am a complete dork. You have much better references.
