Civil War Bookshelf: A token plan
http://cwbn.blogspot.com/2011/02/token-plan.html
American Civil War historiography and publishing blogged daily by Dimitri Rotov. The simplest matters in Civil War history are obscured. How was McClellan commissioned? How did Lee come to command the Army of the Potomac? When was Pope relieved of the Army of Virginia? The tale of the Union’s Civil War needs an early war strategy. If there is one, it can then pass through a character-like arc: it can fail; be revived; triumph. Or it can provide literary continuity through reference to its e...George W...

Civil War Bookshelf: Music is seasonal
http://cwbn.blogspot.com/2015/04/music-is-seasonal.html
American Civil War historiography and publishing blogged daily by Dimitri Rotov. Music is seasonal. Before Easter, Parsifal. After Easter, Hindemith's When Lilacs Last in the Doorway Bloomd. As natural as the spring. Whitman's elegy to Lincoln has more music settings than Hindemith's. There is Dobrogosz's. These are better tributes than any historian could pen. Sadly, there is no good reading of the poem itself, apart from this grotesque curiosity. Avert your eyes and listen. Civil War Book News.

October | 2012 | For God And Country
https://annabishop318.wordpress.com/2012/10
For God And Country. For Cause and Comrades, For God and Country: the Civil War. There are so many amazing eyewitness stories pertaining to the Civil War. They are one of the reasons I most enjoy the Civil War. They bring our perception of a by-gone era to new life for us here in the present. They add color and depth to the black and white of text books. These are stories that should never be forgotten. I’m so thankful that someone thought to capture this on video. A B C's of the Civil War. There are so ...

Civil War Bookshelf: "Copying language from other sources"
http://cwbn.blogspot.com/2015/05/copying-language-from-other-sources.html
American Civil War historiography and publishing blogged daily by Dimitri Rotov. Copying language from other sources". A number of this blog's readers feel certain forms of plagiarism are "no big deal." The New York Times. A reader noticed this editor's note. 8221; (1988) and from Williams G. Stevenson’s “ Thirteen Months in the Rebel Army. 8221; (1862) without attribution. This is a cut and dried complaint: two sources got no attribution. Simple, right? Now, the Times.

Civil War Bookshelf: Guelzo's Lincoln and Douglas
http://cwbn.blogspot.com/2008/03/guelzo-jaffa-lincoln-cont.html
American Civil War historiography and publishing blogged daily by Dimitri Rotov. Guelzo's Lincoln and Douglas. Coming out of the 1990s, I had - as a book reviewer - a set disposition towards Lincoln books and authors. I found them vacuous and annoying. The annoyance came from a "do as I say" ethos. We were invariably told about Lincoln's great mind, his insights, his wisdom, and his general superiority over the common run of statesmen of the same era. We were.

Civil War Bookshelf: Taking our worst failings seriously
http://cwbn.blogspot.com/2015/06/taking-our-worst-failings-seriously.html
American Civil War historiography and publishing blogged daily by Dimitri Rotov. Taking our worst failings seriously. Working through the McClellan controversies and the way they are treated, it eventually occurred to me that there is a much larger Civil War history problem of which McClellanology is just a small indicator. Further, I have come to understand that this problem goes beyond Civil War history and permeates the culture. Now, here comes The Lancet. Civil War Book News. Alan Skerrett, Jr. John ...

Civil War Bookshelf: "Writing through"
http://cwbn.blogspot.com/2015/05/writing-through.html
American Civil War historiography and publishing blogged daily by Dimitri Rotov. An instructor long ago rejected a history paper of mine with the comment, "You are trying to write your way through what is an historical problem.". I was not arguing from evidence, I was stylizing and applying tricks and tropes to press a weak point. See if you think this author is doing the same.
