  • Actor, Assassin, Patriot, Pawn; What You Think You Know About John Wilkes Booth”
    April 14, 2016 The Civil War: April 12, 1861 - May 9, 1865 “Actor, Assassin, Patriot, Pawn; What you think you know about John Wilkes Booth” It was sad news to hear of Don “Duffy” Forsyth’s pass- ing last month. His gentle smile has been missed the last few months. His efforts in getting the speaker for our last luncheon were important to the success of the event. I was pleased to hear from his wife, Nancy, about how much he enjoyed the time he spent with Old Baldy. We are grateful that the family listed Old Baldy as an organization to which a donation could be made to honor Don. Bob Hanrahan, Jr. told us all about the battle between the Kearsarge and the Alabama last month. This month Joanne Hulme, a Booth descendant, will inform us what we do not know about John Wilkes Booth. Next month our vice-president Bob Russo will share his research on Arlington National Cemetery. Be sure to tell others about Joanne Hulme our great programs and activities. Ticket sales for our Iwo Jima print are going well. Pick up a flyer at the meeting to display in your area. Join us at 7:15 PM on Thursday, April 14th, at Camden Planning for our October Symposium is coming along well. County College in the Connector Building, Room 101. At our meeting on the 14th, we will present opportunities This month’s topic is "Actor, Assassin, Patriot, Pawn; for some members to assist on the project.

  • History of Civil Rights in the United States: a Bibliography of Resources in the Erwin Library, Wayne Community College
    History of Civil Rights in the United States: A Bibliography of Resources in the Erwin Library, Wayne Community College The History of civil rights in the United States is not limited in any way to the struggle to first abolish slavery and then the iniquitous “Jim Crow” laws which became a second enslavement after the end of the American Civil War in 1865. Yet, since that struggle has been so tragically highlighted with such long turmoil and extremes of violence, it has become, ironically perhaps, the source of the country’s greatest triumph, as well as its greatest shame. The assassination of President Abraham Lincoln, who would have sought to guide the reunion of the warring states with a leniency and clear purpose which could possibly have prevented the bitterness that gave rise to the “Jim Crow” aberrations in the Southern communities, seems to have foreshadowed the renewed turmoil after the assassination in 1968 of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., who had labored so long to awaken the nation non‐violently, but unwaveringly, to its need to reform its laws and attitudes toward the true union of all citizens of the United States, regardless of color. In 2013 the anniversaries are being observed of two eloquent and crucial landmarks in U.S. history, one a document, the other a speech. The Emancipation Proclamation, issued by President Abraham Lincoln in 1863, re‐focusing the flagging Union’s purpose on the abolition of slavery as an outcome of the Civil War, is now one hundred and fifty years old. The “I Have a Dream” speech, delivered by Dr.

THE LAST WORD This image, a panel from a cartoon series titled “The Special Train,” was published in Harper’s Weekly on the 9th of March, 1861. It references what was known as “The Baltimore Plot,” showing Abraham Lincoln escaping from would-be assassin(s). The published image includes this caption: “He wore a Scotch plaid Cup and a very long Military Cloak, so that he was entirely unrecognizable.” To some people with Southern sympathies, the worst enemy of all was the President himself. Ever since Lincoln was elected to serve as America's 16th President, he had received letters warning him of assassination plots. The trouble started before he even took the oath of office. Harper’s Weekly (in its March 9, 1861 issue) told Americans of a plan to derail the future president’s train as it traveled to Washington for the inauguration: The Times correspondent says: On Thursday night after he had retired, Mr. Lincoln was aroused and informed that a stranger desired to see him on a matter of life or death. He declined to admit him unless he gave his name, which he at once did. Of such prestige did the name carry that while Mr.

  • Kuntzman Barnstable High School
    TAH: A More Perfect Union Book Review Lance Kuntzman Barnstable High School Over the summer, I read a highly detailed book about the four months between Abraham Lincoln’s election and his inaugural. The book, Lincoln President Elect, was a great read and tightly organized. The author proves his point-Lincoln was wasting no time in preparing for the Presidency. By reading this book, I learned a fair amount about Lincoln and learned about some primary sources I could incorporate in the class. This is a book I would recommend to any student of history. First, the thesis of the Mr. Holzer. Almost immediately, Holzer makes his purpose evident-“to paint the most accurate and detailed picture” (7) of one of the greatest crises facing the United States. His portrait is lovingly laid out in 463 pages, of which you will find a summary below. Lincoln President Elect is divided into two portions. The first- The Promise of Something Better and the second-The Momentous Issue of Civil War, chronicle the path from election night 1860 through Inauguration Day 1861. Holzer seems to focus on five tasks that faced Lincoln during those months-selecting a Cabinet, distributing patronage (and seemingly enjoying it), writing his Inaugural Address, speaking publicly to reassure the American populace and travelling to Washington DC safely. Lincoln very adeptly assembled his ‘team of rivals’. It seems everyone in the new Republican Party had someone they wanted in his Cabinet. Geography played a large role in the selection process-convention votes may have been given with the promise of a Cabinet position for someone from that state (106).

Programs cater to both adults and children and include interactive activities, film screenings, and author and guest visits. To kick off the festivities, on Sunday, February 1st, the Aberdeen Library held the first session of its month-long collaborative quilt-making project where attendees were invited to create paper quilt blocks. As more participants contribute to the community art work, the quilt blocks will be joined to form a vibrant mosaic to be displayed through the end of the month. Visitors to the Aberdeen Library also can celebrate Black History Month by viewing specially selected films, which will be shown on Sunday afternoons, February 8th, 15th and 22nd. Those interested in attending can call the branch one week before each screening to find out the title to be shown. Other branches will bring black history to life with guest visits. Each February, members of the Iota Nu chapter of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity present an assortment of books to the Library and host a speaker. This year, the group will honor author Rohulamin Quander as he shares his latest release, 50+ Omega Inspired Years: Tracing an Omega Legacy to 1931, at the Abingdon Library at 11 a.m. on Saturday, February 7th. Another distinguished writer and speaker will visit the Bel Air Library at 2 p.m.

DOI: 10.31390/cwbr.22.2.01 Available at: https://digitalcommons.lsu.edu/cwbr/vol22/iss2/1 Hargroder: Spring 2020 Editorial Andrew L. Hargroder Chief Editor Spring 2020 As the grief of spring rolls into the outrage of summer, Americans are witnessing a cataclysm over the soul of their nation. We face a multitude of crises that stem from unresolved pathologies of America’s recent and distant past. The erosion of democratic norms and institutions, systematic racism, income inequality, poverty, and more – all with us before 2020 – have been laid bare and worsened by a pandemic and by toxic leadership at the highest levels of government. Amidst these calamities, we also face a crisis of history and historical memory. At its heart, it is a struggle over America’s historical record, who has claim to it – and, by extension, to America – and what its legacies mean for the future of the United States. Historians must continue their vital mission of uncovering, interrogating, and illuminating the whole and complex truths of our nation’s past. The historian’s task, along with sharing insights with the public, is crucial to the process of establishing and maintaining a national story for a more inclusive, diverse, and democratic America. We, the Editorial Staff of the Civil War Book Review, are honored to play a small role in that process by providing reviews of some of most important Civil War and Reconstruction-era scholarship published between 2017 and early 2020.
