After the war, Calhoun had a varied career. He worked as a literary and drama critic for the Philadelphia Press, did survey work out West for the Union Pacific Railroad, and worked as a special artist for Harper s Weekly. He later worked as a journalist for several New York newspapers; collaborated on the play, The Color Guard: A Military Drama in Five Acts; and wrote several books, including Kohala of Hawaii: A Story of the Sandwich Islands Revolution, Maud Morton: A Novel, and How to Get on in the World; or, A Ladder to Practical Success.
