185. The Year Of Jubilo, A Novel Of The Civil War By Howard Bahr
Includes several reviews of the author's book, The Year of Jubilo, and summary of the book.
http://www.cw-book-news.com/release info/00-05/jubilo.html
The Year of Jubilo
A Novel of the Civil War
by Howard Bahr
Midway through Howard Bahr's gripping, evocative second novel, Colonel Burduck sums up the Civil War with this rueful conclusion: "Too much had happened, was still happening, and enough remained for generations to wallow in bitterness, making charge and countercharge, revising and accusing and apologizing long after the smoke had drifted away on the wind, and those who had walked through the smoke were dust." The Year of Jubilo , set in Cumberland, Mississippi, in the summer of 1865, is the account of some who passed through that smoke. Time is as enveloping in The Year of Jubilo as the lingering smoke of war and the sudden downpours that drench Cumberland's burned landscape. Bahr weaves his characters in and out of one another's lives, creating an almost smothering net. Harper notes, "they were spared of death, so must once again pay the tally for living; free, so they were indentured to tomorrow." In a fascinating narrative of epic proportion and intricate detail, Bahr intertwines life, love, loyalty (or the lack thereof), freedom, slavery, and death. S. Ketchum

186. Radio Netherlands Child Soldiers Of Liberia
Provides information about the use of child soldiers in the Liberian civil war (19891997).
http://www.rnw.nl/en/liberia/index.html
by Eric Beauchemin The West African nation of Liberia is still picking up the pieces after a brutal 7 year civil war which left 150-thousand people dead and forced one in two to flee. It's estimated that 20% of the combatants in Liberia's civil war were children. They were among the most brutal fighters: many of them killed, raped, tortured and even practiced cannibalism. Since the return of peace two years ago, efforts have been made to help these children come to terms with their wartime past and to give them back their childhood. You can hear the documentary ``Faceless Warriors" here on the web at the top of this page. And further down, you can listen to an interview with the missionary Chet Lowe. CHILD SOLDIERS IN THE WORLD There are an estimated 300,000 child soldiers in some 30 countries around the world. The 1989 Convention on the Rights of the Child defines childhood as below the age of 18 years, although it currently recognises 15 as the minimum age for voluntary or compulsory recruitment. With new weapons that are lightweight and easy to fire, children are more easily armed, with less training than ever before. During the past two decades, child soldiers have played an important role in countries such as El Salvador, Nicaragua, Iran, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Sudan, Angola, Afghanistan and Cambodia.
Since 1994, a United Nations' working group has been trying to develop new international standards that would protect children from the horrors of war. It is lobbying to raise the minimum age for military recruitment to 18, but it has encountered strong opposition from the United States.

Civil War Activities
in the
Southeast Missouri Region
Prologue T he Civil War began at 4:30 a.m., on the 12th of April, 1861, when the first Confederate shell smashed into Fort Sumter. Within weeks militia were being organized in both the North and the South. The Bloody years of war that followed cost the lives of 600,000 men, two percent of the country's population. At the heart of the conflict, the issue of slavery divided states, nationalities, neighbors and even families. Missouri sat on the border between North and South. Most of Missouri's American-born settlers were from southern states and were southern in sentiment. Generally, they lived on farms, and many owned slaves. But the state also had a large foreign-born population, most of whom were strongly in favor of the Union. A convention was called to determine what course Missouri should take in the war, and the state took a position of armed neutrality. It was determined that neither North or South should invade the state and that Missouri would raise an army of its own for the purpose of protecting itself against the government of which it was a part and against its neighbor states that had seceded from the Union. The Missouri State Guards were organized. In Fact, the tide of feeling on both sides rose too high to allow the state to remain neutral. Armies, both North and South, entered its borders and thousands of its citizens enlisted, some fighting for the Union, some for the South. In no other part of Missouri was the loss of property and life more devastating than is Southeast Missouri. While only a few large-scale military operations between uniformed armies occurred, the complex mix of military units operating in the region made it a bloody battlefield for four long years. Northern sympathizers who were not in the regular Union army formed The Missouri Enrolled Militia which engaged in constant warfare with Missouri Confederate militia. Federal troops, intent on preventing a Confederate invasion from the south, moved back and forth through the region. Confederate armies, determined to gain a foothold in Missouri, marched through the Region from the South.

The Civil War Defenses of Washington, D.C.
For more information about a fort click on it.
With the outbreak of the American Civil War, Washington, DC turned into the training ground, arsenal, supply depot, and nerve center for the Union cause. Newly formed regiments encamped in every quarter, and streets reverberated under the wheels of cannons. Cattle for meat grazed on the National Mall; sacks of flour, stacked against siege, surrounded the U.S. Treasury. To protect the city and vital supply routes from enemy hands, Union armies built a ring of earthen fortifications.
Capital Without Defenses
In the spring of 1861 the city lay open to attack by states that withdrew from the Union. Virginia, just across the Potomac, seceded in April. Maryland, a slave state, had many southern sympathizers. They answered President Lincoln's call for volunteers by burning bridges and tearing tracks to prevent Union soldiers from reaching the capital. In spite of hostile acts, enough regiments arrived to seize and fortify footholds across the river in Virginia, occupying points from below Alexandria to hills above Chain Bridge, including the Arlington plantation of the Robert E. Lee family. This move placed offices of the federal government beyond the reach of Confederate cannons.

THOMAS McMANUS PLAQUE
Barry Square
657 Maple Avenue
Hartford, CT
Dimensions: Heights: Plaque, 48"; stele, 7', 6" Dedicated: September 1, 1923 Type: Bronze plaque on granite stele Sculptor: John G. Hardy Foundry: Gorham Company Historical Significance: McManus served in the Union Army, 1862-1863, as a major in the 25th Connecticut Regiment. He saw active service in Louisiana and commanded his regiment at Port Hudson. After the war he was active in veterans' organizations and reunions, being a chief organizer for the erection of the nearby GRIFFIN A. STEDMAN MONUMENT . The 25th Regiment Veterans Association was responsible for THOMAS McMANUS PLAQUE. McManus served as a judge, member of the General Assembly, and director of the Connecticut State Prison at Wethersfield. At the September 1, 1923, ceremonies the memorial was unveiled by his daughter, Ellen McManus Dooley. The Reverend John J. McCook made remarks, on the traditional subjects of liberty, law, and Union 58 years after the war was over. Artistic Significance: THOMAS McMANUS PLAQUE is significant artistically because it is in the tradition of realistic memorial sculpture. Realistic memorial sculpture, such as THE McMANUS bust, continued in favor in America through the early 20th century, when abstract non-representational art influenced much work in the wider field of sculpture. John G. Hardy, sculptor, is not listed in the standard directories. The Gorham Company of Providence, Rhode Island, cast many bronze plaques and figures for memorials in the early 20th century.

CIVIL WAR PATRIOTIC TOKENS, SUTLER TOKENS (EXONUMIA) AND STORE CARDS:
Regular issue US coinage was hoarded during the Civil War restricting merchants ability to make small change. Some merchants had tokens made to give out as change in their stores. If you ordered the least expensive tokens you would receive a combination of two existing dies, usually of a patriotic nature or similar to a US cent, these are called Civil War Patriotic Tokens Civil War Sutler Tokens were a special kind of Store Card that was issued by sutlers who supplied the Union Army. If you had more to spend you could have one or two dies custom made for you with information specific to your business (i.e. location, occupation, specialties, etc.) these are Civil War Store Cards RARITY RATINGS:
The rarity scale for Civil War tokens is listed below. Most collectors collect by town, merchant or die. Very few try to get one of each die combination and metal composition. So value is determined more by supply and demand than by individual rarity. Additionally, more than a few pieces have incorrect rarity ratings (both over and under rated) in current references due to outdated information, hoards, mistakes or typo's. R1 Very Common more than 5,000 estimated
