Welcome to Historical Frictions, a historical fiction podcast.
This is a fortnightly podcast where we delve into the nitty-gritty of history, fiction, and everything in between, hosted by Hilary and Tess.
This episode features special guest Lachlan McCarron, a postgraduate student at the University of Adelaide. After Lachlan recommended this book to Tess we thought we'd invite him on for a chat.
For the book recommendations from Lachlan:
Drew Gilpin Faust, This Republic of Suffering: Death and the American Civil War (2008)
Mark S. Schantz, Awaiting the Heavenly Country: The Civil War and America's Culture of Death (2008)
View the VR by The New York Times here.
Thank you, Lachlan for joining us.
We will be back in your ears in September (hear the brief discussion of our short hiatus at the end of this episode).
If you have any feedback, email us at historicalfrictionpod@gmail.com
And as always, find us by searching on all the socials.
Tess and Hilary [and Lachlan] would like to acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land they live and work: Kaurna Country (Adelaide Plains) and the Gadigal of the Eora Nation (Sydney), and pay our respects to the Elders both past and present.
