Sent to Missouri, the unit was captured at Island No. 10 in April, 1862. After being exchanged, it was assigned to Rust's, Buford's, T.M. Scott's, and Lowry's Brigade. It fought at Champion's Hill and Jackson before participating in the campaigns of the Army of Tennessee from Resaca to Bentonville. In July, 1862, the unit contained 41 officers and 546 men, reported 11 killed, 57 wounded, and 5 missing out of the 318 engaged at Peach Tree Creek, lost many during Hood's Tennessee Campaign, and surrendered with only a remnant on April 26, 1865. Its commanders were Colonel Thomas M. Scott; Lieutenant Colonels James A. Boyd, Wade H. Hough, Noel L. Nelson, and Thomas C. Standifer; and Majors John C. Knott and Henry V. McCain.

Book excerpt: The motivation for this project has developed through the process of living in a community for over fifty years, yet discovering there are art forces at work within the community that have gone unnoticed to many who live and work here. Research shows that the injection of the arts can positively impact a community. Yet, we frequently overlook the creative and cultural arts found in small, rural communities as untapped sources for development. In this study, I conducted multiple case studies of the hidden arts found within one small rural community, Claiborne Parish, Louisiana, and considered the factors that contributed to the creation of these arts and possible community connections that are made as a result of these art activities. This study utilized mini-case studies of selected artists in Claiborne Parish, done primarily through interviews and observations, and documented through blogging, a website, and a photo documentary of significant people, events, and sites discovered throughout this study. I have chronicled and shared ongoing observations in the Hidden Arts of Claiborne Parish blog, located at http://hiddenartsofclaiborneparish.blogspot.com/. Community art resources discovered have been archived and annotated within my Hidden Arts of Claiborne Parish website, located at http://hiddenartsofclaiborneparish.weebly.com/. My website also utilizes the process of photo documentary and online curating in the creation of an art gallery sharing selected works. I have also written and self-published a paper that shares my observations and findings. This paper is available both on my website and in the University of Florida repository of Art Education Capstone papers. Through this study, I attempted to discover the hidden arts found within Claiborne Parish, identify factors that contributed to these activities, and connections that resulted with the community. My research attempts to identify and describe creative forces found within the borders of this small community, and as an incentive to cultivate creative behaviors, generate communication, and inspire future creative activities in Claiborne Parish and elsewhere.

It is a sweeping guide to the publications that best illuminate the land, the people, and the multifaceted history of the Pelican State. Arranged according to discipline and time period, chapters cover such topics as the environment, the Civil War and Reconstruction, social and cultural history, the people of Louisiana, local, parish, and sectional histories, and New Orleans. It also lists major historical sites and repositories of primary materials. As the only comprehensive bibliography of the secondary sources about the state, ^ILouisiana History^R is an invaluable resource for scholars and researchers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a desperate attempt to bring the North to the bargaining table and end what was to the South a losing war, Confederate spies in Canada launch a plot to burn New York City on the day after Thanksgiving in 1864. A group of rebel officers, escapees from Union prison camps who had fled to neutral Canada for safety, reach the city by train and, in disguise, take rooms in various hotels in downtown New York. They fail but only because, unknowingly, they use a chemical mixture that requires oxygen. Smoke from the incipient fires they set is quickly discovered and the fires put out. In the dramatic search for the conspirators that follows, only one of them is caught, Robert Cobb Kennedy, a captain from Louisiana. He is tried, convicted and hanged... the last rebel executed by the North before the end of the war. The Man Who Tried to Burn New York won the Douglas Southall Freeman History Award in 1987.
