The following are several books that I'd suggest if you want to know more about the American Civil War and the very unique city of Washington. D.C. Here are a few - and I mean "few" because the American Civil War is the subject of an enormous number of books across every literary genre. I think these selections will be of particular interest to readers of Stand The Storm.

• Hidden In Plain View, A Secret Story of Quilts and the Underground Railroad by Jacqueline L. Tobin and Raymond G. Dobard, Ph.D., 1999, Anchor Books
• Black, Copper & Bright: The District of Columbia's Black Civil War Regiment by C.R. Gibbs, 2002, Three Dimensional Publishing
• Wild Rose: Rose O'Neale Greenhow, Civil War Spy, A True Story by Ann Blackman, 2005, Random House
