Thank you to Gordon Berg & @CivilWarMonitor for this amazing review of COMBEE!
"Everyone reading this extraordinary book with be richer for the effort," writes Gordon Berg of Edda L. Fields-Black's "Combee: Harriet Tubman, the Combahee River Raid, and Black Freedom during the Civil War." Read more about it here: bit.ly/3TRcKeA #CivilWar #BookReview
"Everyone reading this extraordinary book with be richer for the effort—and a better person for having spent time with Harriet Tubman and the people who ran to freedom in that long ago dawn." @CivilWarMonitor civilwarmonitor.com/fields-black-c…
Thank you, Joe Beilein, for sharing this story with the Kentucky Civil War Round Table! Come again!
In "A Man by Any Other Name: William Clarke Quantrill and the Search for American Manhood," Joseph Beilein Jr. is among recent authors seeking to understand CW guerrillas "in the context of their own society and time," writes Cecily Zander. Read more here: bit.ly/4aDYEDv
Their reasoning, with hindsight was a tad optimistic
@CivilWarMonitor A cheese box floating on a shingle 😂
@CivilWarMonitor The Mariner’s Museum in Newport News has a great exhibition about it and pieces of the Monitor. Well worth a visit!
A colleague of mine is one of the editorial advisors to @CivilWarMonitor. I confess to a little bit of envy as I flip through. Must be nice to have a beautiful, widely-read (I assume?) magazine entirely dedicated to the broad dissemination of the scholarship in your field
Seeing as @eddafieldsblack’s long-awaited “Combee” has dropped, here’s a few rangers and talented historians gathered on the shore of the Combahee River on the 160th anniversary of the Combahee River Raid.
Now that @monitorkitty received this, I can share it. For the last 7 days, I worked on this project (my fingies are desensitized). My beloved friend & I had a good cry. 😭 It is not hyperbole when I say she was instrumental in helping me get my current job. I love you, Anna. 🫂
Wow, qué bonita portada 😍.

I loved this book! @HaroldHolzer knows Lincoln in ways many historians cannot access. Lincoln, even with his penchant for off color jokes, exhibited through actions his love of immigrants and their contributions to the American experiment. @DuttonBooks publishersweekly.com/9780451489012
