African Americans in the Civil War: A Pictorial History of Courage and Pride highlights the war as never before. Large Format and lavishly illustrated with hundreds of images, including rare Civil War photographs, paintings, etchings, lithographs, and maps reproduced in full color. In its visual power and humanistic portrayal of the African American experience, the war comes alive in a newly focused perspective. While the Civil War was the bloodiest in American history, for African Americans, the war was also a quest for equality as human beings. The fight for fair treatment and an end to institutional slavery was only achieved through bloodshed on a horrific scale. The humanity and emotional drama of this conflict comes alive through first-person accounts and carefully selected illustrations. The narrative explores the pre-war rise of anti-slavery sentiment in a nation that bound human beings as slaves. The psychological and sociological battles waged by courageous abolitionists are highlighted with poignant vignettes. The words of Frederick Douglass, Sojourner Truth and many others bring to life the physical scars, the emotional struggle, and the heart-felt pain of slavery. As the heated division between North and South erupts into war, the narrative focuses on the plight of inequality, even for freedmen living in the Union. Racial bias experienced by black surgeons and other professionals highlight the dilemma the United States faced in the early 1860s. Witness the plight of contrabands and slaves who desperately sought safety by following the North Star on a seemingly endless and dangerous journey. Several biographies focus on Harriet Tubman, Anna Douglass and the relevance of the Underground Railroad. As the war escalates into mass death on a scale never witnessed in history, President Lincoln emancipates all African Americans. The reader then explores the continued racial bias as black soldiers are denied equal pay and receive limited opportunities to serve their nation. Several focused stories then highlight the experiences of U.S. Colored Troops as they finally achieve the opportunity they so desperately desire, to fight in battle, as men. Through vivid, newly released photography, gaze into the eyes of the African American men and women that served their nation. Explore the actions of African Americans who won the Medal of Honor for battlefield heroics, both soldiers and sailors. The reader is also provided with experiences of African American women who served their brothers in arms as nurses. Witness the crude tools and techniques to save lives with nineteenth century medicine. Explore the statistics regarding populations, units, diseases, and casualties with a focus on African Americans. Selected speeches by Frederick Douglass, Sojourner Truth and several others highlight, in their own words, the plight, pain, suffering, and the wrongs associated with living in a world filled with oppression. Read of their tireless, life-long efforts to serve as champions for change in an illogical world. The reader is also provided short biographies of men such as Prince Rivers, Robert Smalls, Horace King, Martin R. Delany, William H. Carney, Hiram Revels, and others. There are also stories of women such as Susan King Baker Taylor, Elizabeth Keckley, Harriet Tubman, Sojourner Truth, and Anna Douglass. Their experiences and images, bring to life an invaluable presentation of the African American experience during the Civil War. The selfless service of African Americans during the Civil War settled forever the idea that slavery was acceptable in the United States. The war also secured freedom and equality for a people who were bound to servitude and subhuman treatment. And, within a span of just ten years, African Americans moved themselves from "Uncle Tom's Cabin" to the U.S. Senate. A magnificent presentation awaits the reader through visual and textual portrayals in African Americans in the Civil War.

Teeth. It’s what’s for dinner
Size: Pack of 1, 4 Ounce, Set name: B. Probiotic - Peppermint
I use this toothpaste. It is good. I like flavor. Makes teeth clean. So far I don’t need dentures. Tube size ok with small dispensing hole makes product last. Has ingredients. Idk what some of them are but sounds good. Pre Pro idk but biotic is in there and I am programmed to think that that is good and it does seem that way I think. I also have other flavor and it is good too. Is it worth it? If it helps me to one day not eat my vapid teeth as they crumble apart in my disease ridden gums I have to probably initiate an ideation possibility that I could and may ever so slightly nudge a ginger lean to yes.

Love it BUT it MAY cause dry mouth?
Size: Pack of 1, 4 Ounce, Set name: B. Probiotic - Peppermint
I love the mild minty flavor and the fact it is probiotic. I have been using Boka flouride free Nana-Hydroxyapatite since June 2025. At that time, my front teeth had begun to appear somewhat translucent. When I asked my dentist about it I was told it was due to my age (52) and losing minerals & enamel in/on my teeth. After some research, I discovered nano-hydroxyapatite and figured, ‘why not’? My teeth have always been sensitive and my gums prone to bleeding. I have always used Sensodyne and was unsure of changing but I have found my teeth ate less sensitive now. I just had my 6 month check up & my gums hardly bled & my front teeth are far more ‘solid’ looking! The hygienist complimented me on my improvement since the last check up. All I’ve done differently is the toothpaste! I am not certain if the toothpaste is the reason (due to lack of fluoride) for my new symptom of dry mouth but I haven’t begun any new Rx’s. I am thinking it is the toothpaste because the products I found to aid with dry mouth all contain fluoride. Just a heads up.

Clean, unharmful ingredients.
Size: Pack of 1, 4 Ounce, Set name: A. Probiotic - Citrus Mint
Good stuff. I had somekind of an allergic reaction to a chemical in it, as I do most toothpaste though. Whatever it is, strips the lining of the inside of my mouth. It wasn't as bad as some of the other's that I have used though. I need to find out what it is in the toothpastes that I use that does this, so I can stay away from it. Otherwise, I liked the taste and how good it cleaned my teeth.

Fresh Taste and Super Clean Feeling
Size: Pack of 1, 4 Ounce, Set name: A. Probiotic - Citrus Mint, Size: Pack of 1, 4 Ounce, Set name: A. Probiotic - Citrus Mint
I’ve been using this toothpaste for a while now and just ordered my second tube. The citrus mint flavor is really — fresh but not overpowering. I also love that it’s safe for kids, so the whole family can use it. The fine particles leave my teeth feeling super clean and smooth, almost “squeaky clean” after brushing. It keeps my mouth feeling fresh for a long time and I’ve noticed much less plaque buildup throughout the day. Definitely one of the best fluoride-free toothpastes I’ve tried so far.
