"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

Excellent joining of only one word with imagery! Well done, Kevin.
Here in the great state of Texas, Martin Luther King, Jr. Day is also Texas Confederate Heroes Day.
Mercifully no one seems to celebrate the day that way, at least publicly.
For that matter, the general public doesn’t seem to know it is.
What a beautiful post! Citizens indeed.
