Apologies for light posting lately on this blog. I fear, as you can see above, I've been seduced by X (formerly Twitter), where you can find the context of this and other debates that I've been engaged in about the Civil War and other topics. (The contemporary illustration of the Combahee River raid is from Harper's Weekly.) By all means follow me there, or on Facebook where on The Civil War Era Historian's Page I was recently arguing with a guy named Lloyd Klein about who wrote Grant's Memoirs. I of course think the question answers itself, but he was more inclined to finger Mark Twain or Adam Badeau. I did take the opportunity to say that the issue is at the heart of my 2018 novel, The Last Circle of Ulysses Grant.
