An opportunity for clarity… the difficulties in telling the story of Southern Unionism
As a follow-up to this morning’s post, I thought I’d bring to light some quotes that speak to the contrary. While Strother, after talking with a few folks from the Jefferson and Berkeley militia units, noted what he found to be an opinion circulating within that group (and one that he found to his liking), […]
What’s this?! More “Realist Southrons?!”
April 9, 2011 by Robert Moore
I got a ping today, and, naturally, before I pressed the “approve” button, I had to check out the blog that pinged me. The ping was to a post about Levi Miller. I know, I know… “Great googly moogly, not more talk about ‘black Confederates’!” But, then, reading what they had to say, if I’m […]

His grandfather didn’t want to fight in WW2, but he was drafted, served, and came home. […]
