  • An Investigation Into British Neutrality During the American Civil War 1861-65
    AN INVESTIGATION INTO BRITISH NEUTRALITY DURING THE AMERICAN CIVIL WAR 1861-65 BY REBECCA CHRISTINE ROBERTS-GAWEN A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of MA by Research Department of History University of Birmingham November 2015 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract This thesis sought to investigate why the British retained their policy of neutrality throughout the American Civil War, 1861-65, and whether the lack of intervention suggested British apathy towards the conflict. It discovered that British intervention was possible in a number of instances, such as the Trent Affair of 1861, but deliberately obstructed Federal diplomacy, such as the Emancipation Proclamation of 1863. This thesis suggests that the British public lacked substantial and sustained support for intervention. Some studies have suggested that the Union Blockade of Southern ports may have tempted British intervention. This thesis demonstrates how the British sought and implemented replacement cotton to support the British textile industry. This study also demonstrates that, by the outbreak of the Civil War, British society lacked substantial support for foreign abolitionists’’ campaigns, thus making American slavery a poorly supported reason for intervention.

The son of a mining engineer, Ericsson showed an early interest in mechanics. By the age of ten, he had designed and constructed a miniature sawmill and by 13, he was a cadet in the Swedish navy. By the age of 17, he entered the Swedish army, joining as an ensign in the 23rd. Corps, a specialized engineering unit for the army. While serving in the army, Ericsson became interested in steam engines and developed the theory for his caloric engine, which operated on the principle that air heated to very high temperature could be used to drive engines. In 1826 Ericsson published a paper on his work to develop a caloric engine. That year he demonstrated his invention to the British Society of Civil Engineers. Although the engine failed in the demonstration, Ericsson impressed the English engineer John Braithwaite. Braithwaite was impressed with the young Swede's determination and offered him a position as a partner in his firm.

Social Hour at 6:30 p.m., meeting at 7:30. We invite and welcome all people with an interest in Civil War history to attend a meeting of the Cape Fear Civil War Round Table. The speakers for our programs are diverse in their views, interpretations, and presentations. ***** October Program ***** Fort Fisher 1865: The Photographs of T.H. O’Sullivan Timothy O’Sullivan 1840 – 1882 Dr. Chris Fonvielle CFCWRT member, Dr. Chris Fonvielle, will present a program based upon his recently published book about the photographic history of Fort Fisher made by T.H. O’Sullivan during February 1865. As reported in the New York Herald on February 8, 1865, Messrs. Gardner & Company, as requested by Lt. Gen. Grant, dispatched an experienced Civil War photographer to make a series of views of Fort Fisher for Grant’s report on the Wilmington expedition. The thirty-nine photographs taken by O’Sullivan have provided a detailed record of the fortifications that protected the many blockade runners that made entrance into New Inlet during 1861 – 1865. It has been said that a picture is worth a thousand words. Chris has used O’Sullivan’s photographs to paint a picture of the fort that had become known as the Gibraltar of the South. Please join us on October 13th for a program that will add to our knowledge of the local history of the Cape Fear region during the Civil War.

  • HISTORICAL FICTION: Jackson MS Library the Era of the War Between the States May 2013
    HISTORICAL FICTION: Jackson MS Library The Era of the War Between the States May 2013 Check the online catalogs at your school and public libraries to find these titles. Armstrong, Jennifer The Dreams of Mairhe Mehan In a rich tapestry of dreams, legend, and the pivotal events of the American Civil War, this haunting novel portrays a family of Irish immigrants fighting to find its identity in the New World while a nation struggles to be born anew out of the carnage of war. Avi Iron Thunder: The Battle Between the Monitor & the Merrimac Tom's job as an assistant to Captain John Ericsson, the inventor of the Monitor, makes him a target of Confederate spies. Bartoletti, Susan Campbell No Man’s Land: a Young Soldier’s Story Because he had been unable to fight off the gator that injured his father, 14-year-old Thrasher joins the Confederate Army hoping to prove his manhood. Beatty, Patricia Charley Skedaddle During the Civil War, a twelve-year-old Bowery Boy from New York City joins the Union Army as a drummer, deserts during a battle in Virginia, and encounters a hostile old mountain woman. Beatty, Patricia Jayhawker Elija ``Lije'' Tulley eagerly joins the band of men recruited by abolitionist John Brown to be Jayhawkers, Kansans who cross into neighboring Missouri to steal away slaves and help them to freedom. The historical figures who populate the story are well portrayed as flesh-and-blood characters, not just names out of a history book. There is one glaring error in the text; Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation of 1863 did not free all slaves in the United States, as the story says, but only those in states in rebellion against the Union.

Surdam: The Confederate Naval Buildup THE CONFEDERATE NAVAL BUILDUP Could More Have Been Accomplished? David G. Surdam he Union navy’s control of the American waters was a decisive element in Tthe outcome of the Civil War. The Federal government’s naval superiority allowed it to project power along thousands of miles of coastline and rivers, sub- sist large armies in Virginia, and slowly strangle the southern economy by sty- mieing imports of European and northern manufactures and foodstuffs, as well as of exports of southern staples, primarily raw cotton. The infant Confederate government quickly established a naval organization. Jefferson Davis chose Stephen Mallory as Secretary of the Navy. Mr. Mallory confronted an unenviable task. The seceding states possessed no vessels capable of fighting against the best frigates in the Federal navy, nor did those states possess most of the necessary raw materials and industries needed to build modern warships.
