I received a comment on one of my post and I was amazed to find that it was from a youngster of 12 years of age that is interested in the Civil War plus also has his own Civil War blog. Kids just are not interested in the Civil War anymore unless there parents are and they take to it like my daughter did. Well, I should say her mother but I brought her father around when he saw his first battlefield and where Lee surrendered to Grant at Appomattox Courthouse. He was just blown away and from that point on he loves to visit battlefields.
Back to kids who love the Civil War. As my daughter grew up she hardly new any other kids that new about the Civil War as much as she did/does. As a matter of fact she knows more than me but that's only because she has the time to read. You should see her library, amazing. Anyway, everyone should visit this 12 year old's blog and please leave a comment on his amazing adventure he has had and will experience in the roads ahead. Stuff About The Civil War
Hello,
ReplyDeleteI'm an 11 year old from Pennsylvania who also loves the Civil War. In fact, I have created a project that is teaching others about the Civil War. The project is called Civil War Sallie and she is traveling around visiting Civil War battlefields, museums and classrooms learning about the Civil War. She then reports back on her travels on her blog and shares photos via Flickr.

I travel around to local battlefeilds and am going to go to Gettysburg sometime next summer.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the project, hope to hear more about it.
Did you know the battle of Phillipi, WV just one hour south of me was one of the first civil war battles.
