Bright Starry Banner: A Novel of the Civil War. Soho Press, Inc., $27.00 ISBN 1569473552 Way out west Battle of Stone's River retold Civil War history and fiction are rarely combined with any success. Alden R. Carter, attempts to venture where few have triumphed in Bright and Starry Banner and meets the same fate as countless other authors. Set in the shadows of the Stones River Campaign, Carter takes the reader into the minds of the Union and Confederate leaders who fought for victory in the west. Carter's principle character is Lieutenant Colonel Julius Garesche, the 41 year old chief of staff of the Union Army of the Cumberland, who begins the story with reluctant hopes as he begins service on the staff of Major General William S. Rosecrans, the army's newly appointed leader. Gradually we follow Garesche as he bears witness to a seesaw battle that develops into a stalemate, and with it, the continuing struggle. The Battle of Stones River, was fought around the Widow Smith House in Murfreesboro Tennessee from December 31, 1862 to January 2, 1863.

Warrior for President October 7, 2003 by Dr
Warrior for President October 7, 2003 by Dr. G. Terry Madonna and Dr. Michael Young Retired General Wesley Clarke doesn't live in Gettysburg as former President Dwight Eisenhower once did, but neither Clarke nor his supporters is going to object strenuously if you confuse him with Eisenhower in other ways. As the only professional military officer to run for the Presidency since Ike, Clarke likes the comparisons. And well he should. Successful warrior candidates, such as Eisenhower, have a special prominence in presidential electoral politics stretching back to George Washington, Andrew Jackson, and Zachary Taylor, through a bevy of Civil War officers, including Ulysses Grant and Rutherford Hayes, to modern times. Throughout its history, America has had an affinity for its warriors, electing them to high office, sometimes regardless of their political and civilian experience or ability. Military candidates don't always win, but they win often enough that their candidacy is always significant--and always taken seriously. Their credentials in combination with their standing as non-politicians make them seem ideal candidates to many. So when Wesley Clarke announced his candidacy, he immediately became a member of the gang of ten seeking the Democratic nomination. However, much more importantly, he also became a category of one-- alone in the field as a member of the professional warrior class. And the reaction to him as a candidate is very similar to the reaction earlier warriors have generated. Much, for example, has been made about his political inexperience, his issue inconsistency, his unfamiliarity with domestic issues, and his general lack of experience outside the military.

A Union Officer's Recollections of the Negro As a Soldier
A UNION OFFICER'S RECOLLECTIONS OF THE NEGRO AS A SOLDIER BY hORACEl I INTGOAlFRY* A LTHOUG1H the Negro figured prominently in the background to the American Civil War, the federal government was re- luctant to accept him as a soldier. Not until mid-summer of 1862 was tile Lincoln administration authorized to receive colored re- cruits.' Systematic enrollment did not come until the next Year, molnths after the Emlancipation Proclamation. So strong was northern prejudice against putting the black man in a blue uni- form that IHar'er's Weekly devoted three pages of its issue of March 14, 1863, to illustrations of Negroes as soldiers, its editor frankly admitting that he hoped thereby to counteract the un- fortunate state of public feeling on the subject. On October 21. 1863, Horace Greeley's New York Tribune blistered Governor Horatio Seymour for refusing to follow the examples of Pennsyl- vania and MAlassachiusetts in recruiting Negroes for service in the Union cause. On May 22. 1863, the War Department finally ordered the establishment of the Bureau for Colored Troops. Within a month Major George L. Stearns was appointed recruiting officer for colored troops in the eastern and middle states. He promptly went to Philadelphia and there, amidst much enthusiasm, began his assignment.2 * Dr. Montgomery is Professor of History at the University of Georgia. A native Pennsylvanian and an early member of the Pennsylvania Historical Association, he has taught at California State College and the Pennsylvania State University. Author of several books, his most recent one is Howell Cobb's Confederate Career (1959).

NUCMC Catalog Record Creator: Brinton, Daniel Garrison, 1837‐1899. Title: Daniel Garrison Brinton papers. Date Created: 1863‐1899 (bulk 1863‐1864) Extent: 1 box (.5 linear ft.) Location: Chester County Historical Society, West Chester, Pa. Biographical Data: Dr. Daniel Garrison Brinton (13 May 1837‐31 July 1899) was born in Thornbury Township, Chester County, Pa., on "Homestead Farm" to Lewis and Ann (Garrison) Brinton. Brinton entered the army as a surgeon and served as Medical Director of the II Army Corps, holding the rank of Brevet Lieutenant‐Colonel. After the war, Brinton became well known for his work in ethnology, anthropology, and linguistics of North and South America. Summary: Chiefly letters from Brinton to his parents during the Civil War years of 1863 and 1864. Brinton's letters give the reader descriptions about troop movements before, during, and after the battles of Chancellorsville and Gettysburg. Although Brinton is said to have served with the troops at Chickamauga, Lookout Mountain, and Missionary Ridge, the letters in the collection stop in Sept. 1863 and begin again in Aug. 1864 when Brinton writes his family from the U.S. General Hospital in Quincy, Ill., where he was superintendent for the remainder of the war. Correspondence includes references to Lewis A. Armistead, Francis C. Barlow, O.O. Howard, Robert E. Lee, George G. Meade, Carl Schurz, Adolph von Steinwehr, Frederick William Stowe, Horatio Worrall, and to Mosby's Guerillas. He also mentions his cook, John Copeland, Sr., who was the father of John Copeland, Jr. (1834‐1859), of Harper's Ferry fame. Subjects: Armistead, Lewis A.
