Comments on: Dahlgren Update https://civilwarcavalry.com/?p=534 Bringing obscurity into focus Thu, 11 Apr 2019 15:39:26 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.0.22 By: Regina https://civilwarcavalry.com/?p=534&cpage=1#comment-13278 Thu, 02 Aug 2007 23:20:40 +0000 http://civilwarcavalry.com/?p=534#comment-13278 Quite a coincidence just happened. First, I just happened to read your Dahlgren blog. (He is someone I hadn’t heard of before). Then I was at the library at the “books for sale” table, and a small paperback caught my eye. It’s called “A Stillness at Appomattox” by Bruce Catton and not only does it say it’s a Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, but I was just at Appomattox Court House three weeks ago so I bought the book. Then I started reading it last night, got as far as page 8 and there’s Ulric Dahlgren as a character!! The book tells the story of the last year of the war and it begins with Dahlgren’s attempt to free prisoners in Richmond. I guess I’ll read the book when you get it published. Also, I read “Plenty of Blame to Go Around” and drove almost half of the tour (Hanover, Carlisle, and Hunterstown) and I really liked the way you wrote the book !! Each section is very interesting and the drive tour is the easiest-to-follow of any driving tour I have used–seriously.

This is an excellent time to bring young Dahlgren’s life to the public eye. The incident is well known – at least among ACW buffs – but the story takes on a greater meaning whether one agrees or disagrees with what was being done. The fact is that Dahlgren believed in it and was willing to sacrifice all that he had to give.

No, I don’t think that interest will be limited simply because it is the biography of a man who died young. After all, how old was John Wilkes Booth when HE died – and the interest remains.

That would certainly be typical. 🙂

I used to work at the Naval Surface Warfare Center there and I remember there being information on Dahlgren around the base. I’m not sure if they have any formal museum, but I do believe that they have a library and visitor’s center. Perhaps someone there could direct you to that piece you are missing. Just an idea and perhaps a poor one at that, but I would be more than happy to use my contacts here to investigate the possibility. Email me and let me know.

I look forward to reading this one. You’ve talked about it quite a bit on here and you obviously put a good effort into it. And someone will send you the article after the book comes out :), so you’ll at least have the satisfaction of finally reading it. Brian
