Ted Alexander - "As They Saw the Rebels"

Ted Alexander speaks on the topic: 

“As They Saw the Rebels: Civilian Observations of the Antietam and 

Gettysburg Campaigns.”  

In 1862 and 1863, the people of the Cumberland Valley witnessed two of the most important campaigns of the Civil War – Antietam and Gettysburg.  Their towns were occupied, stores and farms ransacked by both sides and  in many cases, the citizens were harmed or killed.  Alexander’s presentation looks at these events through civilian eyes.

 In 1973, Secretariat was the Triple Crown winner - the greatest of American racehorses. William “Bill” Nack, turf writer for Newsday newspaper from 1972 to 1975, wrote the book Secretariat: the Making of a Champion.  

Bill was our speaker in 2010
