  • Logan Circle Heritage Trail
    A Fitting Tribute LOGAN CIRCLE HERITAGE TRAIL Th e 170s mansions of Union Army leaders gave this neighborhood its original elegance. Later, its proximity to Howard University brought well-heeled African American families. Th ough urban ills eventually drove many residents away, those who remained were joined by newcomers in the 1970s to begin a new chapter. Walk their history as you explore Logan Circle. Welcome. General John A. Logan, rendered in bronze in Logan Circle’s center, could tell a tale or two. The elegant mansions around the park rose soon after the Civil War. Later, housing shortages and neighborhood decline turned them to rooming houses and even brothels. But today they shine again. Prosperity has also returned to 14th Street. Once notorious for its “ladies of the night,” it now bustles with theater- and restaurant-goers. Follow A Fitting Tribute: Logan Circle Heritage Trail to explore the neighborhood’s transformation.

Men and Machines: The syP chological Impact of Gunboats on the Fort Henry and Donelson Campaign Abstract During the course of the American Civil War, 1861-1865, ironclad warships developed a fearful reputation as powerful commanders of the Mississippi River. With the ability to pierce deep into the heart of the South, destroy Confederate property, and pull out with amazing speed compared to land assaults, the early Western Flotilla became the symbol of Northern industrial invincibility, boosting Northern morale and seriously damaging Southern psyches. However, an analysis of the Fort Henry/Fort Donelson Campaign of 1862 reveals a different story than the one that went into legend. Using the official records of the Union and Confederate armies and navies, this study traces the psychological impact of the Western Flotilla ironclads and their journey into legend.

  • Wartime Presidents: Lincoln, Wilson, for an Interview with Richard Striner, Part One SG: Please Comment on the Anti-War Sentiment That Each Presidentfaced
    WarTime Presidents: Lincoln, Wilson, FOR An interview with Richard Striner, Part One SG: Please comment on the anti-war sentiment that each presidentfaced. RS: In Lincoln's c.ase, the anti-war sentiment had several origins. Some of the people who were opposed to the war were the "Peace Democrats" or "Copperheads." Like most Democrats in those days (at least after the Kansas­ Nebraska schism and the departure of the Free Soil Democrats), many of them were white supremacists and supporters ofslavery, and they blamed the Republicans for fomenting an unnecessary war by pushing the slave stares into secession.
