What did you get from that piece? Anything of true value other than some interesting historical facts relating to life during post Civil War America?

Well, but that was of value, and clearly and articulately presented. And she made a clear and compelling case for how the result of the 2016 election stands out as something to not take for granted and support, given its parallel to the one 140 years ago. And my adjective describes all her pieces as well as that one. It certainly provoked my thinking about how the civil war has never entirely ended. We usually don't think of things that way, although the idea has gained traction in recent years.
