[QUOTE="Bounce, post: 1205846, member: 257"] Question. Were the columns of Windsor Ionic or Doric? What struck me the first time I visited Vicksburg was the disparity in size and elaborate design between Union and Confederate memorials. They were typically constructed at different times too. The Union memorials started popping up much sooner and appeared to serve the additional purpose of reminding locals who the winner of the Civil War had been. Later, as the southern states started rebounding financially, their memorials started getting put up but for those same financial reasons, were less elaborate. [/QUOTE]
