Major Anderson曾是General Beauregardde的军校老师,何曾想到历史和命运的安排,
将两个多年的朋友和师生推到了敌友的位置,刀戎相见。。。
历史永远是胜者的历史,战败的南方从此被冠以“叛军”的名号。。。宋庆龄在《宋家
王朝》结尾处说道:“历史没有‘如果’。。。”大江东去,只有胜者不会被浪淘去。

Historians debating the origins of the American Civil War focus on the
reasons why seven Southern states declared their secession from the United
States (the Union), or why they joined to form the Confederate States of
America (the "Confederacy"), and why the North refused to let them go. The
primary cause of secession was slavery, especially Southern anger at the
attempts by Northern antislavery political forces to block the expansion of
slavery into the western territories. Southern politicia... 阅读全帖 |

查尔斯顿Charleston原名 Charle's Town.查理当然是英国的国王。17世纪北美12个殖
民地卡洛莱纳是其中之一。那时没有南卡北卡之分。查尔斯顿便是卡洛莱纳首府,南方
最大海港,地位和纽约不相上下。南方种植园主在此买房消费,拉动了南方经济增长。
直到1861年,也就是英法火烧圆明园的第二年,美国内战再查尔斯顿的Fort Sumter开
打了。南方节节胜利,北方被动挨打。林肯见势不妙,宣布解放黑奴。翻身黑奴把歌唱
。黑奴兄弟纷纷投奔光明。蒂格里斯堡北方大胜,南方节节败退,从佛基尼亚退到北卡
,南卡,佐治亚。一路三光政策。亚特兰大被完全烧毁,只剩下了一条地下的路。Lee
将军投降。南方总统Davis被俘虏。
从此南方一蹶不振,南方口音被人鄙视。查尔斯顿也失去了往日的繁华。从此门前冷落
车马稀。北方的博物馆很多都是免费,因为有政府的资助。查尔斯顿的博物馆就得靠卖
门票生存。
古今中外,不仅落后就要挨打,而且挨打也会落后。 |

布莱克斯堡(Blacksburg)的阿特拉斯工业园犹如一个白色庞然大物,横陈在美国东南部
