According to a few of the 75+ blogs in my blog roll at the moment, today is an important day in US History. It is not only Constitution Day, but also the 147th anniversary of the Battle of Antietam...

There was a very interesting article in the August 11th edition of the UK paper The Guardian about a US scholar who has tracked down the grave of a long-lost British merchantman who supported the South during the American Civil War...

Your chance to help save a little piece of military history. While working on a recent miniature project, I found myself searching for images of the battle flag of the 13th Regiment of South Carolina Volunteers from the American Civil War. Eventually, I found one rather grainy image, and I felt darn lucky. The truth is that many of these flags have been lost, and many more are slowly deteriorating in basements and back rooms of museums across the US.

Recently I’ve been working on a book called Vanquished: Crushing Defeats from Cannae to the 21st century, which looks at a number of battles of annihilation through history. The author, Mir Bahmanyar is particularly interested in why there are fewer battles of annihilation in the modern era. His conclusion is that there are several factors that come into play, but really it’s all down to leadership.

Last weekend I had the honor of going to the Museum Store Association trade show in Phoenix, and while my New York colleagues were stuck in a torrential downpour all week, I was off enjoying a variety of museum display items in sunny, 95-degree Arizona. I was particularly excited to meet the reps from Legacy of Valor, who have licensed loads of Osprey artwork to be printed on t-shirts, long sleeve shirts and hoodies (or jumpers, as I think you call them in the UK).

Hollywood is all about rebooting characters at the minute. Batman got a reboot. Then the reboot got a sequel which became one of the most successful films of all time. Bond has been rebooted - the humour and gadgets are gone and replaced by gritty punchy seat of your pants action. Which went on to spawn another film. Star Trek has been rebooted, even Wolverine has been rebooted in a way.
