So glad to hear that you enjoyed it. This was a cursory foray into this small collection of documents. There are so many different angles that one could take. Our mutual friend Pat Young would likely love to hear more about the immigrant context to this story. Thanks again, Jim.

Kevin, this post is really good. I don't think we, as in the greater society, have an appreciation for how profound an impact the Civil War had on our country-and not just in the obvious ways but in the less obvious as you discuss here. As I have observed several times on your board I am of the opinion that we do not understand this war nearly as well as we think we do. Works like this essay help rectify that issue.

Thanks, Michael. I really appreciate the positive feedback. I am thinking about ways I can flesh out this story even more. Stay tuned.
