Quotation
"Jefferson Davis and other leaders of the South have made an army; they are making, it appears, a navy; and they have made what is more than either; they have made a nation"
W.E. Gladstone, Chancellor of the Exchequer, October 1862
Featured article
The London Confederates
by John D. Bennett
Called a "legend" by Amanda Foreman when she met him at her recent talk to the RT in November, it is worth a fresh look.
