Civil War: Songs of the North collects 15 Union-centric instrumental ballads like  Weeping Sad and Lonely/When This Cruel War Is Over, When Johnny Comes Marching Home, and The Battle Cry of Freedom, all of which are impeccably performed by Nashville-based multi-instrumentalist Craig Duncan and a small army of talented session musicians.
The desire to memorialize the Civil War continues to the present day, with a statue of Confederate General Joseph E. Johnston dedicated on private land near the Bentonville, N.C. Battlefield on March 20, 2010. There are also monuments to North Carolinians who fought for the Union and to soldiers from other states.
