Description

By: Francis Key Howard (1826-1872)

Fourteen Months in American Bastiles is a powerful and eye-opening firsthand account of Francis Key Howard’s imprisonment during the American Civil War. The book offers a unique perspective on the treatment of political prisoners during this tumultuous time in American history.

Howard’s detailed descriptions of his time in various prisons, including Fort McHenry and Fort Monroe, shed light on the harsh conditions and injustices that he and fellow prisoners endured. His writing is both engaging and informative, providing readers with a deep understanding of the harsh realities faced by those who were deemed enemies of the state.

Overall, Fourteen Months in American Bastiles is a compelling read that offers valuable insights into a little-known aspect of the Civil War. Howard’s story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity, and serves as a reminder of the importance of upholding civil liberties even in times of conflict.

Book Description:
Francis Key Howard recounts in this book his life as a political prisoner of the United States. He points out that he was held captive at the same location where his grandfather was inspired to write the national anthem about the “land of the free,” which makes a very stunning contrast. The sufferings that were imposed on him by the Union forces had the effect of solidifying his determination to resist unjust governmental dictates. (Introduction by Katie Riley)
