SUMMARY:Civil War Museum's Media Club: The Enduring Civil War by Gary W. Gallagher
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, November 8  |  6:30pm – 8:00pm |  Register Here \nWe will meet at the Civil War Museum \nIn the seventy-three succinct essays gathered in The Enduring Civil War\, celebrated historian Gary W. Gallagher highlights the complexity and richness of the war\, from its origins to its memory\, as topics for study\, contemplation\, and dispute. He places a contemporary understanding of the Civil War\, both academic and general\, in conversation with testimony from those in the Union and Confederacy who experienced and described it investigating how mid-nineteenth-century perceptions align with\, or deviate from\, current ideas regarding the origins\, conduct\, and aftermath of the war. \nAttendees are encouraged to read the book before the meeting and are invited to discuss the topics it covers with other attendees.

SUMMARY:Second Friday Lecture: Wisconsin Civil War Soldiers with Jewish Heritage
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, November 10  |  12:00pm – 1:00pm  |  Speaker: Richard Kane \nRichard Kane’s presentation will be based on original research that he has been compiling since 2014 and include the following topics. In the mid 1890’s\, Simon Wolf\, a well-known Jewish attorney and diplomat\, with access to thirteen presidents during his lifetime\, attempted to identify Jewish Civil War soldiers. This was based mostly on name profiling and word of mouth\, and\, as a result\, was quite inaccurate. Even with today’s modern research tools\, there are many challenges in identifying Jewish soldiers. The soldiers’ countries of origin and their involvement with the Turners Society show that most of them were recent immigrants to the country. Their fatalities and disabilities represent a microcosm of these conditions in the army as a whole. Also\, many of the soldiers and their family members have interesting and sometimes surprising stories to learn about.

SUMMARY:Grant at Ft. Donelson and Shiloh
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, November 18  |  1:00pm – 2:-00pm  |  Speaker: Tom Arliskas \nGrant’s rise to command in the Federal Armies was a self-taught belief that he knew how to win Battles. The life of General US Grant is the typical\, Horatio Alger story where a young man\, through self-reliance and hard work\, rises to success\, and won for Grant the admiration of a Nation. We will look at the early Grant as Brigadier General in 1861 through to Shiloh\, April of 1862. \nNew research uncovered and re-purposed will convey to the audience Grant and Sherman\, who turned out to be two of the best Generals in 1863 and 1864\, for 1861 and 1862 were almost lost to the Union Army. Grant’s rise was a hard road and not what most Historians teach. Grant the man and the soldier will be reviewed with a perspective new to many people. It will be an interesting discussion on generalship\, tenacity\, and luck – a lot of luck.
