150 years ago today two monuments were dedicated on the Bull Run battlefields. It seems to have been an all Yankee occasion on Virginia soil. Well, the North lost both the battles but won the war. You can view a couple images and read a bit about it from the July 1, 1865 issue of Harper’s Weekly at Son of the South.
