SUMMARY:Civil War Media Club: The Mexican-American War Experiences of Twelve Civil War Generals
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, December 9  |  6:30pm – 8pm  |  Instructor: Doug Dammann  |  $8 ($10 for non-members)  |  Register Here \nLong overshadowed by the American Civil War\, the Mexican-American War (1846–1848) has received significantly less attention from historians\, partly because of its questionable origin and controversial outcome. The contributors to this volume\, however\, argue that the Mexican-American War was a formative experience for the more than three hundred future Civil War generals who served in it as lower-grade officers. The Mexican War was the first combat experience for many of them\, a laboratory that equipped a generation of young officers with practical lessons in strategy\, tactics\, logistics\, and interpersonal relationships that they would use later to command forces during the Civil War. \nMedia Club attendees are encouraged to read the book before meeting and come prepared to share their views and opinions on it in an open forum.

SUMMARY:Second Friday Lecture: Civil War Railroads and Their Tactics
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, December 12  |  12pm – 1pm  |  Presented by: Charlie Banks \nOne of the aspects that makes the American Civil War one of the first modern wars was the use of railroads. Railroads were vital lifelines for armies because they were the fastest and most efficient way to transport soldiers and supplies. Because of this\, major campaigns such as Chattanooga\, Atlanta\, Richmond\, Petersburg\, and Corinth were fought within 20 miles of a rail line or major rail hub. Mr. Banks’ presentation will show how railroads brought about changes to military logistics and tactics that carried on to the major conflicts that followed the Civil War. \nCharles (Charlie) Banks is a member of the  Northern Illinois Civil War Round Table and a founding member of the McHenry County Civil War Round Table. He has a deep interest in the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad and its subsidiaries. Besides his interests in the Civil War\, he also enjoys antiquing with his wife\, Mary\, and building his model railroad.
