  • “Sharpshooters Made a Grand Record This Day” Combat on the Skirmish Line at Gettysburg on July 3
    “Sharpshooters Made a Grand Record This Day” Combat on the Skirmish Line at Gettysburg on July 3 Timothy J. Orr On the morning of July 3, 1863, Corporal Eugene B. Kelleran, a soldier in Company I, 20th Maine Infantry, descended the slopes of Big Round Top, a rocky eminence where his regiment had spent the previous evening. Near dark on July 2, the fatigued Maine regiment scaled the wooded heights, drove off an enemy brigade, and took possession of the summit. As per standard procedure, the 20th Maine’s commander, Colonel Joshua Chamberlain, deployed skirmishers to determine the layout of the Confederate line and to make certain that his regiment truly held the hill. Midway down the southwestern slope, Kelleran and his comrades collided with skirmishers from Colonel James Sheffield’s Alabama brigade. A short fight ensued, lasting only a few minutes. The Maine regiment lost Lieutenant Arad Linscott, who had seized an abandoned musket so he could get a shot at the gray-coats himself. A ball struck Linscott in the thigh, and he died several hours later at the Jacob Weikert farm.1 During this engagement, a Confederate skirmisher kneeling behind a rock took aim at Corporal Kelleran, who also lowered his own rifle and fired. Kelleran got off his shot, which passed through the Alabamian’s mouth and came out the back of his head. When the shooting subsided, Kelleran went to the blood-spattered boulder and noticed that the man’s hat had been left untouched by both the bullet and the resulting gore. Kelleran had long wanted a new hat, so he took this one from his fallen adversary.

  • Earl J. Hess, the Rifle Musket in Civil War Combat: Reality and Myth (Lawrence: University of Kansas Press, 2008)
    Earl J. Hess, The Rifle Musket in Civil War Combat: Reality and Myth (Lawrence: University of Kansas Press, 2008). 288 pages + bibliography and index. ISBN# 0700616071. Hardcover $29.95. Carl C. Creason, Murray State University According to historian Earl J. Hess, the Stewart W. McClelland | 120 Chair in History at Lincoln Memorial University and author of numerous scholarly works, the American Civil War “was the first major war in which both sides were fully armed with rifle muskets” (p. 35).1 For Civil War military historians, Hess’s claim necessitates an accurate understanding of the rifle musket’s role in Civil War combat. As a result, The Rifle Musket in Civil War Combat: Reality and Myth, Hess’s third publication by the University of Kansas Press, probes the effectiveness of the rifle musket on the Civil War battlefield. Hess’s thesis, however, challenges the standard interpretation of the Civil War rifle musket. According to Hess, historians assume that the use of the rifle musket largely contributed to the enormity of casualties during the war, limited the offensive utility of artillery and cavalry operations, resulted in the increased construction of field fortifications, and prolonged the conflict itself. For example, renowned Civil War historian James McPherson stated in Battle Cry of Freedom that: The transition from smoothbore to rifle had two main effects: it multiplied casualties; and it strengthened the tactical defensive…Time and again generals on both sides ordered close-order assaults in the traditional formation. With an effective range of three or four hundred yards, defenders firing rifles decimated these attacks.

  • In the Shadow of the Moon 2007 PG 109 Minutes David Sington And
    In the Shadow of the Moon 2007 PG 109 minutes David Sington and Christopher Riley's acclaimed documentary reveals the history of the Apollo space program through interviews with the brave astronauts who lived through a paradigm-shifting chapter in world history. Devoted to President John F. Kennedy's goal of sending a man to the moon, the NASA project pushed the envelope of what was humanly possible. But the program also experienced several failures, one of which resulted in tragedy. Man on Wire 2008 PG-13 94 minutes Philippe Petit captured the world's attention in 1974 when he successfully walked across a high wire between New York's Twin Towers. This Oscar winner for Best Documentary explores the preparations that went into the stunt as well as the event and its aftermath. Obsessed with the towers even before they were fully constructed, Petit sneaked into the buildings several times to determine the equipment he needed to accomplish his daring feat. American Experience: Jonestown: The Life and Death of Peoples Temple 2006 NR 86 minutes How could one man -- Peoples Temple leader Jim Jones -- persuade 900 people to commit mass suicide by drinking cyanide-laced Kool-Aid in the jungles of Guyana? This penetrating portrait of the demented preacher attempts to answer that question. Using never- before-seen footage and audio accounts of two Jonestown survivors, documentarian Stanley Nelson paints a chilling picture of a social experiment gone horribly awry. When the Levees Broke: A Requiem in Four Acts 2006 TV-MA 3 discs Spike Lee commemorates the people of New Orleans with a four-hour epic documentary that not only recounts the events of late August 2005 but asks why they unfolded the way they did in the first place.

  • Confederates in the Attic
    1 CONFEDERATES IN THE ATTIC There never will be anything more interesting in America than that Civil War never. -GERTRUDE STEIN n 1965, a century after Appomattox, the Civil War began for me at a musty apartment in New Haven, Connecticut. My great- I grandfather held a magnifying glass to his spectacles and stud- ied an enormous book spread open on the rug. Peering over his shoulder, I saw pen-and-ink soldiers hurtling up at me with bayonets. I was six, Poppa Isaac 101. Egg-bald, barely five feet tall, Poppa Isaac lived so frugally that he sliced cigarettes in half before smok- ing them. An elderly relative later told me that Poppa Isaac bought the book of Civil War sketches soon after emigrating to America in 1882. He often shared it with his children and grandchildren before I came along. Years later, I realized what was odd about this one vivid memory of my great-grandfather. Isaac Moses Perski fled Czarist Russia as a teenaged draft dodger-in Yiddish, a arrived at Ellis Island without money or English or family. He worked at a Lower East Side sweatshop and lived literally on peanuts, which were cheap, filling and nutritious. Why, I wondered, had this thrifty refugee chosen as one 4 CONFEDERATES IN THE ATTIC CONFEDERATES IN THE ATTIC 5 of his first purchases in America a book written in a language he could woke to a comforting sound: my father bounding up the attic steps, barely understand, about a war in a land he barely knew, a book that he blowing a mock bugle call through his fingers and shouting, "Gen­ kept poring over until his death at I02? eral, the troops await your command!" By the time Poppa Isaac died, my father had begun reading aloud to me each night from a ten-volume collection called The Photo­ graphic History of the CivillVar.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles What They Fight For: The Men and Women of Civil War Reenactment A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in History by Christopher George Bates 2016 What They Fight For: The Men and Women of Civil War Reenactment by Christopher George Bates Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Los Angeles, 2016 Professor Joan Waugh, Chair Abstract This study examines the three generations of Civil War reenactors: the veterans, the centennial reenactors, and the modern community. It argues that they are an excellent case study for examining the evolving memory of the Civil War, particularly when considered in the context of five interpretative traditions: the “Lost Cause,” the “Union Cause,” the “Reconciliationist Cause,” the “Emancipationist Cause,” and the “White Supremacist Cause.” At the same time, a careful analysis of the modern community illustrates the myriad ways in which contemporary individuals interact with and utilize the past. - ii - The dissertation of Christopher George Bates is approved.
