A Civil War Veteran
The last remaining Civil War veteran passed away in 1956. This story shows a group of "bootblacks," or shoe polishers, congregating around this veteran and listening to his stories. Imagine the thing he must have seen.
21-Year-Old Winston Churchill
Here Winston Churchill is pictured as a Cornet in the 4th Queen's Hussar's Calvary in 1895. His whole life was greatly dedicated to the British army and he served during the Victorian era. He shipped off to India with his regiment before inevitably pursuing a successful career in politics.
