See also another handbill from McClellan in 1862 thanking Curtin for calling up the Pennsylvania militia.McClellan denies that he has written a pro-Curtin letter in the Philadelphia Press; further, he states that after a conversation with Judge Woodward, McClellan supports his election as governor of Pennsylvania in "the interests of the Nation." Despite McClellan\u27s endorsement, Curtin won the election and Woodward went on to serve in the House of Representatives (1867-71). McClellan began his military career as an engineer at West Point, served under General Scott in the Mexican War, taught at West Point, studied European warfare, and conducted surveying and exploration missions in the West, briefly serving as President of the Ohio and Mississippi Railroad before the Civil War. At the outbreak of war the governors of New York and Pennsylvania sought his service; en route to discuss the offer with Governor Curtin (PA), McClellan was offered a position as major-general by Governor Dennison of Ohio which he accepted in 1861. McClellan went on to become general of the Union armies, but after differences with the Washington administration, Lincoln (whose letters are represented in the collection) put McClellan in charge of the defenses of Washington; after Antietam, McClellan was removed from active command. In 1864 he ran unsuccessfully for the presidency, later becoming the Governor of New Jersey (1878-1881). He published his memoirs, _McClellan\u27s Own Story_ (1887) and was remembered as a formidable adversary by Lee (whose letters are also represented in the collection). Curtin, the subject of this handbill, served as Governor of Pennsylvania (1861-67), gaining key support for Lincoln in that state; he later served three terms in Congress (1880-1887) and was appointed minister to Russia by President Grant (whose letters are also in the collection). Biddle, to whom the letter is addressed, served in the military in the Mexican and Civil Wars and filled a vacant seat in the House of Representatives (1861-1863), serving also as chair of the Democratic State central committee in 1863, the year this letter was written

Introduction: Faking it With the Truth’ Special Edition (Biddle, J. and Tess, L., eds.) “Hyperrealism and other Indigenous forms of ‘Faking it with the Truth’”
No full text'Hyperrealism and Other Indigenous Forms of 'Faking it with the Truth'' introduces the special collection of Visual Anthropology Review (VAR) "Hyperrealism and other Indigenous forms of 'faking it with the truth'”; a collection of essays on new media art, ceremony, animation, sensory immersion and other hyperreal interventions by Aboriginal and 1st Nations artists, curators and academics. The essay introduces the contributing Indigenous and non-Indigenous authors who are working across this emergent field of cultural production. Developing key concepts in critical dialogue with Indigenous practice-based activism and history, it argues that works of the Indigenous hyperreal serve to challenge dominant frameworks of anthropology and canonical art theory. It provides historical and conceptual background for understanding the importance of these works as vital strategies of survival taking shape in neo-colonial contexts across Indigenous territories of Australia and Turtle Island today
