Hardee
Infantry Tactics, Volume 1,
This is not music, but it is cool and it comes in CD form. Interactive CD outlines
the complete volume one of Hardees with School of the Soldier (including the
manual of arms for the musket, as opposed to the rifle), and School of the Company.
This version is fully animated, making clear and easy to understand all of the
complex actions described by Hardee. For each lesson, you can read on screen
the complete text as Hardee wrote it, then click a button and watch the men
perform the maneouver described. There is no easier way for reenactors, historians,
and students of military tactics to learn exactly what the Civil War soldier
was trained to do on the battlefield.
Will work on either Macintosh or Windows platforms (Windows 95 and up). This
is taking Civil War drill to the next level!...................$25.00
The
Slackjaw Brothers- Almost Live,
Ray Herbeck and Tom Hoffman are a couple of traveling troubadours known as the
Slackjaw Brothers. Handy with mirth and melody, they share hardship with the
tamers of a savage continent, and lift their spirits where needed---and a glass
of spritis, whenever possible!
The original settings for their unique American music was the frontier edge
of civilization: A tent in the California goldfields; a sutlers shack near army
encampments in Texas, Mexico or the South; a saloon in the Old West; a campfire
on a cattle trail.
The Slackjaw Brothers commemorate these musical vagabonds of old with "Almost
Live" interpretations so that in your minds eye you picture them: two disheveled
guitarists playing in the corner of a dark, smoky saloon barley lit by oil lamps,
glasses tinkling, brass spittons pinging, membersof the audience occasionally
joining in with extra instruments and voices.
Songs include- The Girl I Left behind Me/ Yankee Doodle Medley, Arkansas
Traveler, Oh Susanna, La Cuchuca Waltz, Green Grows the Laurel, Wildwood Flower,
and eight more entertaining tunes.
The CD liner contains the Slackjaw Brothers colorful thoughts for each tune.
You Won't be Disappointed!...........................................................$15.95

Shiloh, The War is Civil No More. Wide Awake Productions. The American Civil
War was barely a year old. On it's horizon was a battle that would set a standard
in bloodshed for the rest of the war. The battle would come to be known as Shiloh,
a word that ironically means "place of peace"....actually a small
church in the backwoods of Tennessee. One in four who fight here will be killed
or wounded.
Over 13,000 reenactors accurately simulate the troop movements of the actual
soldiers at the memorable reenactment of Shiloh in 1997. The largest reenactment
in this area. State of the Art digital video and motion picture film capture
the gritty realism of the reenacted battles. The Battle of Shiloh was one of
the largest amphibious campaigns ever waged by an American army. Stunningly
realistic digital effects bring the federal gunboats, Tyler and Lexington back
to life and firing from the Tennessee river. Archival photos, first person accounts
and narration seam this story together. Shiloh will take you back to that fateful
Tennessee battlefield in 1862!...................................................................................Available
