  • Military Intelligence Essay
    Essential Civil War Curriculum | William B. Feis, Military Intelligence| March 2020 Military Intelligence By William B. Feis, Buena Vista University efore publishing his groundbreaking monograph, The Secret War for the Union, Edwin C. Fishel bemoaned the lack of scholarly interest in Civil War military intelligence operations. “Intelligence historians don’t give damn about the Civil B 1 War,” he complained, “and Civil War historians don’t give a damn about intelligence.” Nevertheless, he also knew scholars had good reason not to take it seriously. Until his book appeared in 1996, the “true” history of Civil War military intelligence was mostly a collection of uncorroborated cloak and dagger tall tales featuring daring spies and dangerous missions packaged in flowery Victorian prose. In these spy thrillers, however, the truth rarely survived first contact with the enemy. As a result, the dubious nature of what passed for intelligence history seemed unworthy of serious consideration by both intelligence and Civil War historians. Fishel’s work, however, showed that giving a damn could reap significant rewards.2 To understand the true nature of Civil War military intelligence requires an examination of its most challenging characteristics, keeping in mind nineteenth-century military theorist Antoine-Henri Jomini’s warning that though “it is unquestionably of the highest importance to gain this information,” actually getting it was “a thing of the utmost difficulty, not to say impossibility.”3 First, military intelligence operations (called

    SONS OF UNION VETERANS OF THE CIVIL WAR Lt. Commander Edward Lea U.S.N. – Camp Number 2 Harriet Lane ************************************************************************************* Winter 2006 Volume 13 Number 4 ************************************************************************************* From the Commander’s Tent Here it is, another December. It seems like every year passes more swiftly than the previous year. The past year was certainly a full one. Camp members participated in a variety of activities including: • The dedication of the historical marker at the grave of Lt. Cdr. Edward Lea. • Reenactments at Crockett and Liendo Plantation. • Awarding of Letters of Achievement to the son of Brother John Schneider at his Court of Honor upon his elevation to Eagle Scout. • Several brothers marched with the 13th U.S. Infantry in the Veteran’s Day parade. • Brother Chap Traylor participated in a Civil War living history program for the 8th Grade class in Mason, Texas. One activity unfortunately did not occur this year. Due to heavy rains and flooding around the National Cemetery, the Memorial Day observance was cancelled for the first time since the mid 1960’s. Next year promises to be another busy year. On January 20th the camp will host the Department of Texas 2007 encampment. It will be held in Galveston in conjunction with our annual ceremony at the grave of Lt. Cdr. Edward Lea. The National Chaplain will be in attendance. I hope everyone will make a special effort to attend. I close with the wish that this Holiday Season and the coming year will be the best yet for us all. Yours in F. C. & L.

  • From the Brigade Commander: Ed Root We Ended Our 39Th Campaign Year on a High Note with Good Friend Eric Campbell
    July 2017 – Summer Campaign 40: Next Meeting on September 05, 2017 From the Brigade Commander: Ed Root We ended our 39th Campaign year on a high note with good friend Eric Campbell. It’s always a special evening when one of our many National Park Service friends pays us a visit. The campaigns in the Shenandoah Valley continue to fascinate all Civil War “life time learners.” Thanks to Eric our knowledge and understanding of Jubal Early’s October 19, 1864 assault at Cedar Creek was greatly increased. Thanks to Round Table members who volunteered on both June 17 & 18 at the Lehigh Valley Civil War Days in Whitehall. Barry Arnold, Kay Bagenstose, Jim Duffy, Bill Frankenfield, Tony Major, Ed Oechsle and Roger Tice all gave up all or parts of their weekend to help spread the word about the CWRT of Eastern Pa, Inc. and our activities. Neil and Kathy Coddington and all the folks at the Friends of Camp Geiger work hard every year to bring this event to the Lehigh Valley. Our organization’s 40th year is upon us! Bob McHugh has a wonderful lineup of speakers set for the 2017-18 year. You will not want to miss any of these programs! We start off the year at the Holiday Inn on September 5th when Bruce Venter will present Kill Jeff Davis; The Kilpatrick-Dahlgren Raid on Richmond, 1864. I’ve heard this program and it is excellent! Bruce’s book is top notch scholarship as is his presentation. Have you checked our website recently? If not, you are missing out on much.

  • Pauline Cushman: Spy of the Cumberland'
    H-CivWar Larson on Christen, 'Pauline Cushman: Spy of the Cumberland' Review published on Wednesday, August 1, 2007 William J. Christen. Pauline Cushman: Spy of the Cumberland. Roseville: Edinburgh University Press, 2006. v + 436 pp. $39.95 (cloth), ISBN 978-1-889020-11-2. Reviewed by C. Kay Larson (Independent Scholar) Published on H-CivWar (August, 2007) Lifting the Veil of a Legend During the Civil War, "Miss Major" Pauline Cushman, née Harriet Wood, became a national heroine as a Union spy and scout. Cushman entered the U. S. secret service following a fairly successful Midwestern acting career and the death of her husband, Charles C. Dickinson, a member of the 41st Ohio Volunteer Infantry Regiment. Christen, an independent scholar of nineteenth-century culture, spent thirteen years researching: where Cushman came from, what the true facts of her Union service were, and what happened to her after the Civil War. In the first chapters, Christen uncovers Cushman's real name; place of birth; who her parents were; her marriage to Dickinson, a musician; histories of the theater companies that employed the couple; the Dickinsons' stage history; etc. Christen analyzes the sometimes conflicting information gleaned from family tradition, playbills and performance reviews, Midwestern newspaper notices, and more. Following Dickinson's death from lingering effects of dysentery, Pauline left her two children with her in-laws to go on the Louisville stage. In April 1863, Cushman was recruited as an army detective by Col. Orlando H. Moore, the provost marshal there. Cushman had reported two Confederate parolees who tried to entice her into making pro-Confederate declarations on stage.

  • VOL. XLIII, NO. 2 Michigan Regimental Round Table Newsletter—Page 1 February 2003
    VOL. XLIII, NO. 2 Michigan Regimental Round Table Newsletter—Page 1 February 2003 Elizabeth Van Lew did not have the sinister appearance of a spy. She was a tiny, angular, birdlike creature with a sharp, peckish nose, bright blue eyes of “unearthly brilliance,” and hair done in ringlets. Born in New York and educated in Philadelphia, she lived in Richmond, Virginia most of her life. While in Philadelphia, Elizabeth became an ardent abolitionist. “Slave power,” she wrote in her diary, “is arrogant, is jealous and intrusive, is cruel, is despotic.” When war came in 1861, she began carrying on a charade of a simple Good Samaritan by toting baskets of food, medicine, and books to the Federal prisoners inside Libby Prison. She was sometimes seen walking the streets of Richmond mumbling to herself, often assuming a vacant expression, while wearing the shabbiest of clothing. Her erratic behavior soon earned Elizabeth the nickname “Crazy Bet.” Behind that bizarre façade, however, Elizabeth was a shrewd and cunning woman. While inside the prison, “Crazy Bet” gleaned tidbits of information from the prisoners which she secretly passed on to the Federal authorities. Eventually her operation became more sophisticated with secret ciphers, a courier system, and classified details from Confederate officers. Of the city’s provost marshal, John Henry Winder, she wrote, “I can flatter almost anything out of old Winder, his personal vanity is so great.” Federal officers soon came to realize “Crazy Bet’s” value. While at Fort Monroe, General Ben Butler referred to her as “my correspondent in Richmond.” Colonel George H.
