civil war casualties: 618,000 plus one

140 years after General Lee surrendered to General Grant, a Virginia man was killed when a Civil-war era cannonball he was restoring exploded.

It’s tragic that this awful war that nearly divided the United States as we know it has claimed another life.

It’s tragic that 3,264,000 men fought and 618,000 men died to unite us, yet today we remain divided.
