The Civil War

A Poem By

The Missouri Compromise was in 1820
Harriet Tubman ran away in 1849
Then came the 1850 Compromise

“Uncle Tom’s Cabin” published in 1852
I think this was a busy time, don’t you?

Kansas Nebraska Act -1854
Now here is all about the Civil War

Battle of Bull Run – 1861
Every man armed with a gun

Battle of Petersburg – 1864
Lee surrenders – April 5, 1865
Oh, what a war, what a war.
