New enough, long enough, well written and referenced article (AGF on offline sources) on an interesting topic. Hooks are interesting, cited, and the image is suitable, in the article, and appropriately licensed. Personally I have a clear preference for ALT0. QPQ done. Only one nitpick: could you please link "Confederate" and "American Civil War" in the hooks? The average Wikipedia visitor may not necessarily know of them. Constantine ✍ 19:09, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
