The Zouave craze started by Elmer Ellsworth and his gallant band of U. S. Zouaves in the summer of 1860 inspired many to hop on the ol' Zouave bandwagon.
The troop didn't leave Chicago until July, but they packed twenty one cities into their tour on the greater Northeast. I have read many reviews of the performances, and I sure wish someone--anyone!--would take on the project of recreating this spectacle!
It would make a great scene in a movie!
With all the Lincoln work being done, there is a lot to read, and I just found out that the U. S. Zouaves performed at the Republican Convention in Chicago as part of an evening's entertainment.
Yep--a reworking of a chapter is in my future!
I so want First Fallen to be good--there is no rush to publish for me. As long as I keep unearthing good information, I will include it.
How could I do less for our Colonel?
I enjoy what you guys are usually up too. This type of clever work and coverage!

Heya just came upon your website via Google after I typed in, "Blogger: First Fallen: the Life and Times of Colonel Elmer Ellsworth"
ReplyDeleteor perhaps something similar (can't quite remember exactly). Anyhow, I'm
pleased I found it simply because your subject material is exactly what I'm searching for (writing a college paper) and I hope you don't mind
if I gather some material from here and I will of course
credit you as the source. Thank you.
