On April 12, 1861, Confederate troops fired on Fort Sumter in Charleston Harbor, igniting a Civil War that would divide the nation for four long years. Recruiting posters enticed young men to join their friends and family in the military, calling upon their sense of duty and patriotism, and promising adventure and financial gain.
In this episode, Kathleen Barker will introduce a Civil War soldier who had a secret; a secret that went all the way to their grave… until 100 years later, that is. Have listen!
