A more realistic alternative to Confederate History Month in Virginia… or anywhere else in the South
Keying off of both Kevin Levin’s and Brooks Simpson’s posts on Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell’s proclamation (an annual proclamation from the Governor’s office for a number of years back) about Confederate History Month (this year’s is actually modified slightly from last year’s proclamation), I felt the need to toss in a few comments of my […]
A visit to the American Civil War Center
April 20, 2009 by Robert Moore
