Sinopsis

This continuation of the story of Daniel Read Anthony spans no more than portions of the years1861 and 1862. In contrast to the previous volume, which speculated freely on the genesis of DR’s obnoxious personality, this volume is more constrained to ‘facts.’
As in the prior volume, doubt arises as to the justification of such a story. The argument for justification will not be exhaustive here, but it will emphasize three points:

  • DR Anthony did personally know and empathize with AbrahamLincoln, Frederick Douglass, Horace Greeley, Eli Thayer, William Seward, Walt Whitman, Jim Lane, John Brown, illiam Tecumseh Sherman, Phil Sheridan, and the retinue of his sister Susan B. Anthony.
  • DR Anthony personally participated in sdmirableevents like the the first Emigrant Aid Society migration to Kansas, the Underground Railroad, the brazen rescue of escaped slave Charley Fisher in Kansas, and the liberation of 2,000 or so slaves in Missouri.
  • Contrast is made of a savagely disagreeable man possibly mentally disordered, who violently persecuted western Missouri citizens, administered an anomalously high number of executions of friend and foe alike, and engineered a national embarrassment to the Union Army’s top brass, even to Lincoln himself.
And there you have the premise for examining DR Anthony as a ‘Bluecoat from Hell.’
