SUMMARY:The Lower Battlefield of Antietam with Bert Dunkerly
DESCRIPTION:What happened on Antietam’s forgotten battlefield? Hear historian Bert Dunkerly reveal its hidden history and preservation. \n\n\n\nWhile Antietam remains one of the most famous engagements of the Civil War\, the lower end of the battlefield has been largely overlooked\, in preservation and in scholarship.

He has authored seventeen books about the American Revolution\, the Civil War and other topics. Dunkerly has served as president of the Richmond Civil War Round Table\, taught classes at the Virginia Museum of History and Culture and Central Virginia Community College\, and writes for the Emerging Civil War and Revolutionary War blogs. He has visited more than one thousand battlefields worldwide. \n\n\n\nMembers Reception at 5 pm \n\n\n\nParking:\n\n\n\nPlease use the gated entrance on Brown’s Island Way to access the parking lot.

SUMMARY:The Man Behind the Cane with Paul Quigley
DESCRIPTION:Join Paul Quigley to discover what prompted Preston Brooks’ attack on Charles Sumner and how it deepened the nation’s division over slavery. \n\n\n\nIn 1856\, South Carolina Congressman Preston Brooks caned Massachusetts Senator Charles Sumner on the floor of the U.S. Capitol. The attack\, which left Sumner unconscious\, increased tensions across the nation and pushed the country closer to civil war. Join Paul Quigley as he explores what motivated Brooks’ actions and what it meant for an increasingly polarized nation. \n\n\n\nPaul Quigley is the James I. Robertson\, Jr. Associate Professor of Civil War History in the History Department at Virginia Tech\, where he also serves as Director of the Virginia Center for Civil War Studies and Director of the Center for Humanities.
