SUMMARY:Second Friday Lecture: Vicksburg After the Fall
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, May 12  |  12:00pm – 1:00pm  |  Speaker: Gene Eric Salecker \nWith the capture of Vicksburg in July 1863\, the Bluff City became a Union citadel within the Confederacy\, accessible only via the Mississippi River. Turned into a major Union supply base\, Vicksburg was the main starting point for a number of Union expeditions or raids throughout the rest of the war. At the same time\, the city became a haven for thousands of liberated enslaved people. And at the very end of the war\, Vicksburg became a way station for Union ex-prisoners-of-war being sent back home from Andersonville and other Confederate prisons. On May 12\, you will hear “the rest of the story” concerning the city Abraham Lincoln famously called “the Key” to the Confederacy.

SUMMARY:Gettysburg in Color\, Volume I: Brandy Station to the Peach Orchard
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, June 2  |  12:00pm  – 1:00pm  |  Presented by: Pat and Dylan Brennan \nPatrick Brennan\, a long-time student of the Civil War\, published author\, and an editorial advisor for The Civil War Monitor magazine\, has teamed up with his technology-astute daughter Dylan Brennan to bring the largest Civil War battle to life in the remarkable 2-volume study: Gettysburg in Color. Volume 1 covers Brandy Station to the Peach Orchard\, and Volume 2 covers The Wheatfield to Falling Waters. \nRather than guess or dabble with the colors\, the Brennans used an artificial intelligence-based computerized color identifier to determine the precise color of uniforms\, flesh\, hair\, equipment\, terrain\, houses\, and much more. The result is a monumental full-color study of the important three-day battle that brings the men\, the landscape\, and the action into the 21st century.
