More Confederate soldiers died in Chicago’s Camp Douglas than on any Civil War battlefield. Originally constructed in 1861 to train forty thousand Union soldiers from the northern third of Illinois; it was converted to a prison camp in 1862. Nearly thirty thousand Confederate prisoners were housed there until it was shut down in 1865. Today; the history of the camp ranges from unknown to deeply misunderstood. David Keller offers a modern perspective of Camp Douglas and a key piece of scholarship in reckoning with the legacy of other military prisons.

Wonderful book!By MonicaThis book gives a condensed history of the apparitions in Fatima; combined with how Fatima ties into other things going on in the world. Readers are shown how Nazi history during WWII; communism around the world; atheism; and other factors have ties to what the children were told at Fatima. And the book also includes tons of photos. Fascinating book1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. good bookBy ellen kanegood read but too much about Russia4 of 5 people found the following review helpful.
