150 years ago today Jefferson davis was sworn is as President of the Confederate States of America (POTSCA) He gave his inaugural address in Montgomery, Alabama. I am much more familiar with Gettysburg Address than either Lincoln's or Davis's inaugural addresses.

LTC Stephen F., interestingly enough, Rice University is the "place to be" if you wish to get Ph.D. in Southern History (i.e. the Deep South, the Confederacy, etc.). One would think a university in the Deep South would have the honors, but Rice it is! I have a close friend whose son did exactly that!
I was born in Alabama, and have been to and through Montgomery many times. There are many nice places there, of course, but overall, Montgomery is not very appealing to me.
