Meanings: Where This Is All Headed, John M. Rudy
Interpreting the Civil War: Connecting the Civil War to the American Public
Human tragedy, human triumph and continuing struggle, each of its own epic proportions. One convoluted war holds inside the tripartate meanings of sorrow for 620,000 lost, joy for 4 million saved and the uneasiness that the struggle for freedom would still continue 150 years later. [excerpt]

Born In Slavery: One Grave In Chambersburg, John M. Rudy
Interpreting the Civil War: Connecting the Civil War to the American Public
A simple epitaph with amazing impact: "Born in Slavery, Died Feb 15 1908." Those words speak and speak loudly. Thomas Burl wanted it to be known for eternity that he was a slave. And he wanted it to be known that he wasn't when he died. That label defined his whole life. It defined who he was when he had the name "slave" forced on him when he was born. And it again defined him through its absence after 1863. [excerpt]

Fire On The Mountain: A Forest Fire Ignored?, John M. Rudy
Interpreting the Civil War: Connecting the Civil War to the American Public
There was a massive forest fire on the South Mountain at the edge of Adams County. It ripped through thousands of acres of woodland along the crest of the ridge. The undergrowth went up like a match. The spring up to this point had been unusually dry. And a fire started. [excerpt]

Rewind: Good Morning To The Night, John M. Rudy
Interpreting the Civil War: Connecting the Civil War to the American Public
Today is a special day, a momentous day. It's a day I've thought about for a long time. A day for beginnings and a day for looking back. So I'm looking back for today's blog, to one of my favorite posts. It's simple and meaningful to me. It's about a place that has changed my life so much. And today the ripples from that place are changing it again. And it's wonderful. [excerpt]

Hearing His Voice: What Does "War" Have To Say?, John M. Rudy
Interpreting the Civil War: Connecting the Civil War to the American Public
Lee is formulating his plan to move northward, to invade Federal territory once again and lean on the United States' popular will to fight. And War will see the fruits of that decision. He'll see it all. And we're still working to tell his tale, bit by bit. [excerpt]
