Comments on: The Ugly Truth About North & South https://civilwarcavalry.com/?p=1523 Bringing obscurity into focus Thu, 11 Apr 2019 15:39:26 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.0.22 By: Arthur B. Fox https://civilwarcavalry.com/?p=1523&cpage=1#comment-36426 Wed, 13 May 2009 16:35:26 +0000 http://civilwarcavalry.com/?p=1523#comment-36426 Well – I had nothing invested in North and South, and always liked the magazine up to a year or so ago. I have written the only books ever published documenting Pittsburgh During the American Civil War (2002,2004,2009) and Our Honored Dead – Allegheny County, Pennsylvania During the War (2008, 2009), and had mailed a manuscript To N & S about the Fort Pitt Foundry here in Pittsburgh. The Foundry produced 60% of the heavy guns used by the Union. No magazine has ever published an article on the foundry, so thought it might be of interest to readers outside of our SW PA area, since most of the 2,000 plus guns went to other parts of the country.
However, the article came back rejected with the note – that the editors did not feel it would be of interest to the readers – WHAT – NOT OF INTEREST??

I don’t mind. I have $5000 in cash invested. The rest is either stock in payment for articles or for legal work done.

So, my cash loss is much less. However, had I known, I would not have invested the cash, I would have insisted on being paid for the articles, and I would not have done the legal work at all.

I hope you don’t mind me asking, but why did you invest in this venture to begin with? That’s quite a lot of money.

Or will some of them continue to get played, as in the past?

I have no idea.

That’s all well and good, but what Poulter’s letter doesn’t say is how he has used the company as his personal piggy bank over the years, so I don’t feel terribly sorry for him.

The ship can never be righted with him at the helm. And that’s the bottom line.

I’m sure that he, more than anyone else, given what he has at stake, would like to see the ship righted.

That letter only reaffirms what was in the Editorial section of the latest issue. Not a pretty sight for what was once the best Civil War magazine going.

Hopefully “You Stink” will help you make back some lost $. BTW: Roger Clemens broke my heart today. That should put a smile on your face 🙂

It took me all of about 15 minutes to get everything I wanted from it. Most of our regular customers who bought it there that I know have said enough is enough and are now buying Civil War Times (as am I). It’s really sad, but not surprising, and maybe that it’s not surprising is the saddest part of all.
