Download or read book A Zouave's Journey written by Marilène Patten Henry and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2007 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Zouave's Journey is a fascinating biography of an orphan's struggles to survive in late-nineteenth-century France. As a young man, he was drafted into the elite 3rd Zouave regiment, fought in the historic battles of 1917 and 1918, was wounded, and suffered from the effects of severe gas poisoning. In 1920, he returned to a society that soon forgot the hardships endured by his generation. The Musée Alfred Desmasures is the recipient of administrative documents pertaining to his childhood as well as his war journal, letters, and other memorabilia perpetuating the sacrifices of the men of 1914-1918. This book is based on the information provided by Achille Lecreux of the 37th African Division. A Zouave's Journey is certain to engage a broad spectrum of readers in historical, cultural, military, and social studies and is recommended for both undergraduate and graduate libraries.

This book was released on 2015-05-18 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the winter of 1861, Union armies had failed to win any significant victories over their Confederate counterparts. The Northern populace, overwhelmed by the bloodshed, questioned whether the costs of the war were too high. President Lincoln despondently wondered if he was going to lose the Union. As a result, tension was incredibly high when Union hero Ambrose Burnside embarked for coastal North Carolina. With the eyes of the nation and world on little Roanoke Island in the Outer Banks, Burnside began his amphibious assault on the beaches and earned a victory that shifted control of Southern waters. Join author and historian Michael Zatarga as he traces the story of the crucial fight on Roanoke Island.

Download or read book Zouave Theaters written by Carol E. Harrison and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2024-04-17 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this compelling new study, Carol E. Harrison and Thomas J. Brown chart the rise and fall of the Zouave uniform, the nineteenth century’s most important military fashion fad for men and women on both sides of the Atlantic. Originating in French colonial Algeria, the uniform was characterized by an open, collarless jacket, baggy trousers, and a fez. As Harrison and Brown demonstrate, the Zouaves embraced ethnic, racial, and gender crossing, liberating themselves from the strictures of bourgeois society. Some served as soldiers in Papal Rome, the United States, the British West Indies, and Brazil, while others acted in theatrical performances that combined drag and drill. Zouave Theaters analyzes the interaction of the stage and the military, and reveals that the Zouave persona influenced visual artists from painters and photographers to illustrators and filmmakers.

Download or read book The Civil War on Hatteras written by Lee Thomas Oxford and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2010-08-27 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A noted Civil War historian chronicles the fascinating role played by North Carolina’s Hatteras Island in the War Between the States. Hatteras Island was home to many Civil War firsts—among them the first Confederate capture of an armed Union vessel and the first combined amphibious assault of the Confederate army and navy. With illuminating research and vivid prose, historian Lee Oxford demonstrates why these episodes make Hatteras Island vital to the story of the Civil War. The Confederates' desire to regain control of this Outer Banks island saw the capture of the U.S. gunboat "Fanny." This in turn led to the famous Chicamacomico Affair at Live Oak encampment. The skirmish featured harrowing acts of valor by the Twentieth Indiana Regiment, as well as a path toward victory for the Confederate forces.

Download or read book The Civil War in North Carolina written by John G. Barrett and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2017-11-01 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eleven battles and seventy-three skirmishes were fought in North Carolina during the Civil War. Although the number of men involved in many of these engagements was comparatively small, the campaigns and battles themselves were crucial in the grand strategy of the conflict and involved some of the most famous generals of the war. John Barrett presents the complete story of military engagements across the state, including the classical pitched battle of Bentonville, the siege of Fort Fisher, the amphibious campaigns on the coast, and cavalry sweeps such as Stoneman's raid. From and through North Carolina, men and supplies went to Lee's army in Virginia, making the Tar Heel state critical to Lee's ability to remain in the field during the closing months of the war, when the Union had cut off the West and Gulf South. This dependence upon North Carolina led to Stoneman's cavalry raid and Sherman's march through the state in 1865, the latter of which brought the horrors of total war and eventual defeat.
