I am honored to accept this distinguished award from the good people at The First Freedom. Unfortunately, if it were not for one of my readers I would not have known about this honor. Let’s see, I would like to thank my mom, dad…

"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

Congrats, Kevin!
But technically, aren’t you a carpetbagger?
Thanks Stephen. I thought about pressing this point, but than thought it would be futile to try to explain the difference to these people. Either way I am in pretty good company.
OK, I am confused. When I click on the link I get nothing about Kevin or scalawags.

James, — Click on the first link and scroll down just a bit and look on the right hand side. It should be there in bold letters.
Congratulations!
I’m jealous.
The page I get to won’t let me scroll down
Whatever it is, congrats!
OK, it is an AOHell thing. When I used Firefox via my work
lash-up, all was kosher Cool!
Kevin,
Congratulations! I bet you’re thrilled that the neo-Confederates hate you.
Keep up the good work. I hope you win many more such awards.

Nice to see you being appreciated for all your hard work. Someone once said “You can tell a man by his enemies.” Or in this case, those that just don’t like you very much.
