Two Months in the Confederate States (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by Louisiana State University Press, Baton Rouge, 1998
ISBN 10: 0807123358 ISBN 13: 9780807123355
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In the fall of 1862 W. C. Corsan, an English steel merchant and manufacturer from Sheffield, visited the Confederacy to judge the impact of the American Civil War, especially the blockade, on his business prospects. Upon his return to Britain, Corsan penned his observations about the South and its Cause, and his memoir was published in London the following year. With the author identified in the book only as an ""English Merchant,"" Corsan remained obscure for more than 125 years.In this new edition, Benjamin H. Trask's marvelous research identifies Corsan as the heretofore anonymous merchant and tracks his course from New York to New Orleans and across the Deep South. Trask's introduction gives the first published information about Corsan's life and firm, and also ably places the merchant's visit in the context of England's possible intervention on the side of the Confederacy.In a clear, lively, and at times humorous style, Corsan details his experiences, which include nearly being drafted into the Rebel army. He also records southerners' attitudes toward the war and, as was natural given his background and mission, economic and financial matters. Trask's footnotes provide welcome commentary on the text. A rosy view of the Confederacy emerges from Corsan's narrative. Everywhere he went, the Englishman found southern morale very high. As he traveled, he analyzed the relative strengths of the opposing sides and concluded that the South would easily win the war. Although Corsan was opposed to slavery, he adamantly believed blacks incapable of rising in rebellion against their masters or of engaging in combat against southern troops.Corsan's accurate descriptions of his surroundings reveal much about the Confederacy; his inaccuracies disclose much about himself and the British merchant class. With Trask's notes illuminating the distinction, Two Months in the Confederate States is an invaluable resource for students of both the Civil War and the Victorian era. W.C. Corsan provides a first-hand account of the Confederacy at the moment when it still believed that triumph was inevitable, yet when the ingredients of defeat were self-evident.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. For nearly two centuries, the beacons of light stations guided vessels through the deceptively hazardous waters in and around Hampton Roads.Eleven light stations have dotted the southeastern coast of Virginia since the days of the early republic. Starting with Alexander Hamilton's establishment of the federal lighthouse service, their story meanders through the American Civil War, Reconstruction, the Second World War and beyond, tracing the development of maritime commerce in the region. The keepers themselves were mostly white men from Virginia or North Carolina, however, caretakers also included immigrants, women, and formerly enslaved men. For almost two hundred years, these stalwarts maintained the beacons that guided vessels through these waters.They also rescued those in peril. Far from being isolated, their collective lives were intertwined with the events and innovations that shaped the nation. Local historian Benjamin Trask tells their stories. years, these stalwarts maintained the beacons that guided vessels through these waters. They also rescued those in peril.

Through his copious, informative notes, Trask adds a great deal to this vivid account. Perhaps because he was a stranger, however sympathetic to the southern cause, this memoir gives a fresh perspective of the South at war, whereas local diarists took much of the ordinary for granted. Benjamin H. Trask is librarian for the Mariner's Museum in Newport Virginia. * This is a NEAR FINE copy of the 1st./1st. FNL with minimal cover fade reducing it to VG++. 1998-01-01. n.
