| The Theory of Evolution in Re-enactment (Skirmish Magazine, 2006) This essay was written by Philip Clark, Company Secretary to the American Civil War Society. It sums-up the insightful remarks made by re-enactor Howard Giles, when he served as the keynote speaker at the National Association of Reenactment Societies during Spring of 2006, and it concerns the rise in popularity of the "Living History Movement" beginning in the year 1967 on up to the present day. Within this time frame there have been five distinct periods of historical re-enactment which are covered at length. "Re-enacting has been in existence for 39 years in the UK and 45 years in the USA. Will we be re-enacting still in 50 years time? Can we continue to survive? Where are the re-enactors of the future? We are all getting older!"

*A Short Clip Examining the World of American Civil War Reenactors* Prelude to Jena (Skirmish Magazine, 2006)In the fall of 1806, Napoleon took to the field against the Kingdom of Prussia, a saber-rattling Queen, and a pride of generals still clinging to the former glories of Frederick the Great. In less than two weeks of campaigning the French were masters of Prussia and all of eastern Germany lay open to them. History recalls the Jena campaign as one of the most decisive of Napoleon's triumphs, yet few recall the weeks leading up to the battle and this is precisely what Andrew Bamford lays out for you so clearly in this article from "Skirmish Magazine".
