I just found out that my article, “William Mahone, the Lost Cause, and Civil War History” has been awarded the Virginia Historical Society’s 2005 William M.E. Rachal Award for best overall article in the Virginia Magazine of History and Biography (Vol. 113, No. 4). As you might imagine I am absolutely thrilled about this award, and given the quality of essays in this journal I am also pleasantly surprised.

"In this stunning and well-researched book, Kevin Levin catches the new waves of the study of memory, black soldiers, and the darker underside of the Civil War as well as anyone has... Levin is both superb scholar and public historian, showing us a piece of the real war that does now get into the books, as well as into site interpretation."
David Blight, Author of Race and Reunion
