097.Chinese Soldiers Fought in U.S. Civil War

One of the most important anniversaries in American history is coming
in 2010-2015. This marks the 150th anniversary of the American Civil War (1860-1865). My friend, Jeffrey Bingham Mead, the president and founder of the History Education Council of Hawaii, an allied organization with the National Council for History Education, sent me some excellent links, through which one can access the information and research results on the Chinese soldiers who fought in the civil war. I list them for you in the following:
01. Association to Commemorate the Chinese Serving in the American Civil War
02.Chinese Soldiers Fought in U.S. Civil War
03. Chinese Soldiers Fought in U.S. Civil War
