Thankfully, the weather was agreeable with our presentation, and I had a great time taking on the character of Dak Ralston, descendent of Italian Immigrants in New Jersey, seeker of riches in St. Louis, and soldier in the U.S. Army. | The history teacher in Joplin recently asked if I would present in a Civil War living history day for students at North and South Middle Schools. My task was to present the soldiers' camp life through storytelling. Other sections of the area included the home life during the era, including a weaver, some typical games, a blacksmith, and a sheep pen. at our end of the farm was my tent site, a surgeon's tent, and a drilling/marching area. |
