Education and Inspiration through the ancient art of storytelling!
Civil War Ghosts and Legends - True stories and legends woven with traditional songs and poetry from the most un-civil war. Join storyteller Brian “Fox” Ellis as he takes listeners back in time to the bloody battlefields, gruesome field hospitals and haunted graveyards of America’s deadliest war. In the persona of Mathias Stritt, a German immigrant who was one of the first to enlist in Peoria, Illinois and later marched with Sherman as he burned Atlanta and marched to the sea, Fox uses poems by Walt Whitman and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow interspersing his rich knowledge of the war with classic horror stories by Ambrose Bierce.
