The Civil War series (and possibly other KB works) have benefited the
Ungar family of musicians, some of whom are also Vermonters.  "Ashokan
Farewell", by Jay Ungar, was practically the theme song of the Civil War
series.  Jay Ungar himself calls it "a Scottish lament written by a Jewish
guy from the Bronx."

The only Ungar I really knew in person at all was Larry Ungar, and that
was years ago, when he and a then-housmate of mine were an item.
