I live in southern Va., not too far from the NC line. Live on the farm on which I was raised. Hobbies include collecting C.W guns, metal detecting, fishing, hunting, Indian Artifacts, etc. I'm big on history, also.
Welcome aboard to Civil War Talk. We've saved a spot by the campfire for you and the coffee (substitute) is hot and the hardtack fresh (from the moldy box).
Hi Guys,
I am an Englishman who empathises with your losses in the civil war. We had a civil war-not a 1/100th as bloody in the 17th century. Yours is a tragedy of Greek Epic proportions. In spite of this very little taught over here. Yours is a vast and great country littered with the historic deaths of the brave.
Hope you enjoy your time here and let us hear from you.
Sincerely,
Unionblue
