Marking
the 150th anniversary of the US Civil War battle Peachtree Creek, the
Ew Publishing summer series War Cry Heal Union (WCHU) honors several soldiers
unknown; specifically, the essay notes the meeting between New Yorker Dennis
Buckley and Mississippian Van de Graaff.
Hosted on the Bryan William Brickner Blog, the fifth
installment of the WCHU series, Civil War: Battle Flags, Medals of Honor and Soldiers Unknown, looks at the deadly confrontation in the defense of Atlanta, 20
July 1864, Peachtree Creek.
“Today’s essay,” opened Bryan W. Brickner, “is
about the moment two citizen-soldiers, one Federal and one Confederate, meet
for the first (and last) time.”
“It was
hand-to-hand combat,” continued Brickner, “and not a civil handshake.”
“Representing our citizens in a
new constitutional House,” Brickner said in closing, “is something We the
People can look forward to; while doing so, let’s look back as well (in order
to heal) and think again of the Unrepresented citizen-soldiers who fought that
war … for all of us.”
Brickner has a 1997 political
science doctorate from Purdue University and is the author of several political
theory books, to include The Promise Keepers: Politics and Promises (1999),
Article the first of the Bill of Rights (2006), and The Book of the Is: A book
on bridges (2013). The Bryan William Brickner Blog is an ongoing
resource for the political science of constitutions and the biological science
of receptors.
Next: July 27th is the sixth essay in the War Cry
Heal Union series ~ Henry Lee III, father of Robert E. Lee, defends the First
