    The Annals of Volume 66, Numbers 3 & 4 Iowa Summer/Fall 2007 A QUARTERLY JOURNAL OF HISTORY In This Issue J. L. ANDERSON analyzes the letters written between Civil War soldiers and their farm wives on the home front. In those letters, absent husbands provided advice, but the wives became managers and diplomats who negotiated relationships with kin and neighbors to provision and shelter their families and to preserve their farms. J. L. Anderson is assistant professor of history and assistant director of the Center for Public History at the University of West Georgia. DAVID BRODNAX SR. provides the first detailed description of the role of Iowa’s African American regiment, the 60th United States Colored Infantry, in the American Civil War and in the struggle for black suffrage after the war. David Brodnax Sr. is associate professor of history at Trinity Christian College in Palos Heights, Illinois. TIMOTHY B. SMITH describes David B. Henderson’s role in securing legislation to preserve Civil War battlefields during the golden age of battlefield preservation in the 1890s. Timothy B. Smith, a veteran of the National Park Service, now teaches at the University of Tennessee at Martin. Front Cover Milton Howard (seated, left) was born in Muscatine County in 1845, kidnapped along with his family in 1852, and sold into slavery in the South. After escaping from his Alabama master during the Civil War, he made his way north and later fought for three years in the 60th U.S. Colored Infantry.

Available at: http://ir.uiowa.edu/annals-of-iowa/vol66/iss3/3 Hosted by Iowa Research Online “Will They Fight? Ask the Enemy”: Iowa’s African American Regiment in the Civil War DAVID BRODNAX SR. SOME FIFTY YEARS AGO Dudley Cornish’s groundbreak- ing book, The Sable Arm, called attention to the extent and im- portance of the African American military presence in the Civil War.1 But with the exception of the famous 54th Massachusetts Infantry, whose service was later dramatized in the film Glory, the nation’s individual African American regiments have not, as a rule, attracted much serious historical research. Iowa’s African American regiment, the First Iowa Volunteers (African Descent), later redesignated the 60th United States Colored In- fantry, has suffered from that general neglect. The first historian to take note of the regiment was Hubert Wubben, who recorded the existence of the “First Iowa African Infantry,” as he termed it, but little more. He wrote only that it was organized in 1863 and that it “saw no combat, but per- formed guard and garrison duty in St. Louis and in other parts of the lower Mississippi Valley.” This brief summation hardly did justice to the regiment’s experience, but at least Wubben provided a reference citing official records where materials for 1.

  • THE ANNALS of IOWA 77 (Spring 2018)
    The Annals of Volume 77 Number 2 Iowa Spring 2018 A QUARTERLY JOURNAL OF HISTORY In This Issue LINDA M. CLEMMONS, professor of history at Illinois State Uni- versity, shows how Dakota prisoners of war at Camp Kearney in Davenport during the 1860s found ways to capitalize on local citizens’ fascination with the “exotic” Indian prisoners, thereby ameliorating to some extent the brutal conditions of their captivity. EMILY KATHRYN MORGAN, assistant professor of art history at Iowa State University, analyzes two collections of photographs related to labor strife in the meatpacking industry in mid–twentieth-century Iowa, one amassed by members of a meatpacking union, the other by a meatpacking company. Her analysis of these images demonstrates that both labor and management used photographs not only for passive purposes of record- keeping but also for active purposes: identification, intimidation, and retaliation. During times of conflict the camera became not simply a tool but a weapon, wielded by both sides. Front Cover Striking workers pose in front of a makeshift shelter, Cedar Rapids, 1948.
