1776 WAR FOR INDEPENDENCE
It is important when documenting history to understand and set the correct foundation of the story.When this is applied to American history let it be noted that the so-called Revolutionary War was as much a civil war as a war for independence, but whos independence. There were probaly as many colonist if not more who wanted to remain attached to the great British empire as there were colonist who wanted to split from Britain.And this is why it was a civil war among civilians.One historian noted that in one year along,there were over 100 battles in the state of South Carolina and not a redcoat(British soldier) in site.The freedom and independence of Africans on the continent was another issue.Read all about it and more in Volume-1 of a seven part series on American history titled,COMING CLEAN-Stories Of Americas Past,coming soon.

Michael Thurmond
Michael Thurmond
I heard the author Thurmond speak this evening on Georgia history and the Civil War .He debunked the myths of history and gave a more correct account of past events.He is a new kind of historian with a more balanced prospective of history.
I particularly enjoyed his views on beginning of Georgia as a free colony setup to rehabilitate people.He also noted the 200,000 or more African Americans who fought on the union side during the Civil War.More information can be found in my books Coming Clean-Stories of Americas Past
