Civil War Soldiers With Pipes

[rhoadsie]

A good while back a bunch of Forum Members bought a book which I believe was Titiled Smoking and Tobbaco between the Blue and the Gray, nice book, 65$ but worth it.

Yep, great book.

If anyone wants the book Brad mentioned above ^^ ...... shoot me a PM and we'll discuss it. I'm willing to let mine go.

Bingo Ray!
Apologies to Checotah for misspelling his user name. It doesn't agree with spell checque.

Checotah, are you sure they're Civil War soldiers? I swear I can see more than a couple of forum members in that photo :rofl:

Seeing that first photo in colour really illustrates that it wasn't that long ago, & it probably won't be long before we all disrupt amongst ourselves again.

As clever as we are, & with all the history we know, you just know it'll happen someday. Sobering thought.

Pic of me with a Hamburg style pipe that I was smoking at a living history encampment on the Petersburg National Battlefield Park a couple years back.
