His carefully crafted “public face” was impactful in more ways than the ordinarily shy and private family man could have ever imagined.

Few students of the Civil War realize that almost all of the South’s gunpowder was produced at a single location in Augusta, Georgia. The large and impressive facility made thousands of pounds each day. If it was captured or destroyed, the war would necessarily end within eight to ten weeks because there was no way to replace the gunpowder.

The second issue highlights two more units under whose flags the American landscape "turned red" during the fraticidal bloodbath of the "Late Unpleasantness," book reviews, and the Classic Regimental Bookshelf.
