    National Park Service Kennesaw Mountain U.S. Department of the Interior Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park Battle of Kolb’s Farm From Harper’s Weekly Before the War: On a 600-acre rural farm plantation known as the Kolb Farm, the widow of Peter Valentine The Kolb Family Farm Kolb resided with her family in an atypical enclosed, wooden dog-trot house. On June 22, 1864, her peace was rudely disturbed by Federal and Confederate troops who met in what was a com- plete disaster for Confederate forces. The Kolb homesite, which stood (and still stands) in its current location on the south side of Powder Springs Road, bore silent witness to the ugliness. It had been a self-sufficient farm since the 1830’s...remaining that way until war came to Geor- gia. The impending fighting caused the Kolb family to flee to Madison, Georgia, ahead of the approaching Union Army. The Kolbs, like many of their neighbors, abandoned their property in their flight, only to return to destruction and desolation. Joseph E. Johnston William T.

  • Page 1 Was the Utah War a Buchanan Blunder?
    Page 1 Was the Utah War a Buchanan Blunder? May 30, 2012 Was the Utah War a Buchanan Blunder? Page 2 When James Buchanan was inaugurated as the Fifteenth President of the United States, a great party was held on March 5, 1857, the largest gala were held in Washington D.C. that had been held in years. The weather was beautiful and there was twice as many people as had attended President Pierce’s inauguration. Mr. Buchanan press secretary (his nephew) James Buchanan Henry, described the inauguration celebration as, “The Inauguration Ceremonies, the ball, and the fine reception at the White House, by the new President, were very widely attended and successful. It happened that they took place during a short era of good feeling among all shades of politics and party, but unhappily an era of peace destined to soon end in bitter discord over the Leacompton Constitution or the Kansas question, and by the more disastrous following appeal to the passions of the two great sections of the North and the South which so nearly ended the Administration in blood.”1 It was recorded that 50,000 people witnessed the inauguration ceremony and that 15,000 tickets had been sold for the Inaugural Ball. It was estimated that 150,000 people lined the street for the procession.2 The inauguration of President Buchanan was a great success. He started his Presidency on top of the world. Today President Buchanan is on almost every list of Worst Presidents ever. Most of the time he is named at the bottom or in the bottom two worst Presidents ever to have served.

  • CAMP FLOYD in RETROSPECT by Don Richard Mathis a Thesis
    CAMP FLOYD IN RETROSPECT by Don Richard Mathis A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of Utah in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Department of History University of Utah June 1959 This Thesis for the Master's Degree by Don Richard Mathis has been approved by Ch&frman, Supervisory Committee Reader, Supervisory Committee Head} Major Department Dean, Gradua/te Sc#6ol ~J~ PREFACE During the period of United States History typified by the westward movement, military posts were established along the main routes of travel for the principal purpose of providing protection to those hardy souls who looked to the setting sun for a better way of life. There was at least one exception to this practice, however, and it is the topic of this thesis. \he author has an abiding interest in military move­ ments in the West and a desire to learn more of the contribu­ tion made to America by dusty cavalrymen and footsore infantry men. This study of Camp Floyd, Utah Territory, grew out of this interest, which bordered at times on obsession. Though Camp Floyd was typical of western outposts in many respects, it was still unique in the purpose of its establishment— to quell the reported rebellion of subjects of the United States. An attempt has been made in this work to capture the excitement and romance experienced by the frontier soldiers stationed at Camp Floyd, as well as to discuss their several contributions to the development of the West. Appreciation is expressed to the many people and insti tutions who aided the author in preparing this work; to Dr.
