"A Sonnet for Skedaddle" July the Fourth, the birth of freedom comes, For Jefferson and Adams, both the rent And sad beginning to results that sent The newly formed America in 1861 To civil war, a purging of the angered air, The dark horizon's potent glare At Constitution's justice marred, At what had blighted early dawn's repair Of freedom's banner; came impatience, spent In blood, this tragic and most inevitable war To end the self-inflicted wounds in hearts within the core Of what became the eagle's rock: these states were bent Toward forming more in perfect union's height: Skedaddle finds the time, records the light. What a dedication is here on the part of Skedaddle to the even report of America's most costly war, the Civil War, a war which both divided and united all, and bonded these several states in such a union as has never been witnessed in the history of mankind! If there is an interest in history and a continued interest in the insult and remedy of history, then Skedaddle's site provides a fair hearing. Which is more formidable? the task, itself or Skedaddle's labors in intellectual honesty and care in presenting what is both scholarship and an abiding sense of true concentration on what was both the wrong and the right of both sides of the earth's first experiment in the forming of a nation based on an idea! I cannot compliment this site enough. Bravo!
