Kevin Coolidge discusses the history of the Bucktail Regiment and the Bucktail novel series written by William P. Robertson and David Rimer in "The Battling Bucktails: Sharpshooters of the American Civil War" video.
blurb

This book is meant as a brief history and introduction to the famous Civil War sharpshooters known as the Bucktails. Their heroics, colorful leaders, weapons, and legacy are presented in an easy to read format. Photos of Bucktail reenactors and monuments help bring the story of the 42nd, 149th, 150th, and 190th Bucktail Regiments to life. Come have a cup of popskull and grab a root with these bully Bucktail boys.

blurb

GHOSTS serves as a guidebook to haunted sites in Pennsylvania and Western New York. The author visited these places himself to take photos and suck up their scary atmosphere. The tales he tells come from local folklore, friends' testimonies, and internet research. Spooky highlights include the Shadow People of the Hinsdale House, the headless ghost of Old Fort Niagara, and Luke the Spook who terrified teens in Bradford, PA. Equally scary are accounts of the North Hall ghost at Mansfield University and the phantoms that roam Goodleburg Cemetery--the thirteenth most haunted place in America. Add in the spirit children of the Halton Baby Cemetery and a specter that lurks in the Devil's Den at Gettysburg, and this book becomes truly spooktacular!

Elmira Prison Camp was every bit as bad as Andersonville.  In this case, though, the villains were Yankees.  Hellmira also housed Union draftees who were waiting to be sent to the front.  Often, these men were more dangerous than the Rebel prisoners.  Learn why in this video.
