No visit to our museum would be complete
without a stop in the Museum Shop. We have a wide variety of
items no matter which side your loyalties fall on. Following
are some of the unique items available in our Shop:
The Beat of the Drum
The Beat of the
Drum relates the history of the camp from its beginnings
as a bustling Civil War post from which troops, material and
supplies were dispatched to frontier bases all over the Southwest,
through decommissioning by the military in 1871. The book then
chronicles the conversion of several of the buildings to a college
campus, and the use of Junior Officers Quarters as a boarding
house through two world wars. It concludes with the saving of
that building from demolition and it's restoration to the lovely
museum it is today.

Prisoners of the Civil War, The Story
of Two Americans
This is a dual first person account, of two men in the Civil War - each from opposite sides who stayed in opposite prisons. It is the story of an Iowa farm boy who fought at Vicksburg, and the story of a Confederate Captain who was the first naval officer in the world to successfully attack and disable a ship using a submersible in a wartime act. Douglas Westfall is publisher of these two veterans' first-person historical accounts. The book contains a compilation of rare letters from Capt. William T. Glassell (Confederate States Navy) and Sgt. William H. H. Clayton (United States Army). This
book is available at the Museum, or through mail order at www.SpecialBooks.com/prisoners.htm
