I was born in Wisconsin but have lived in Virginia most of my adult life.
I was already a history buff when I moved into the middle of all of this history and I immersed myself in it.
I have given thousands to the Civil War Trust to preserve battlefields all over.
I am a Yankee who thinks tearing down Confederate monuments is an abomination.
This Yankee thanks you!
The Civil War is something that scared us, but something that ALSO brought the country back together again.
Thank You, Abraham Lincoln!
