I must say, I love Ugly Betty. Likewise, I think that Civil War camps are just as interesting as the battlefields. I can't believe I didn't know that Stafford had such a historical gem tucked away. Camp Humprey is made all the more impressive by the fact that its remains are still visible today. I also couldn't believe that Stafford's "scab" left by the war was still being healed in the 1960's. As important as it is to preserve the battlefields, it's also worth-while to remember how people lived during the Civil War time period. After all, AP tests are growing increasingly focused on cultural changes throughout American History.

I agree about the AP exams thing. I'm sure it will offer more than just the basic black and white answers that we read, and will need us to analyze things to some extent and to see the cultural (alongside the political) side of things.
