CIVIL WAR Memories & Memorabilia

CIVIL WAR MEMORIES & MEMORABILIA

The public is invited to an extraordinary program  presented by Massachusetts collectors Brad Peters & Jan Ross.  They will share their experiences visiting major Civil War battlefields & their extensive assemblage of Civil War artifacts. They will give a brief talk with special emphasis on the Battle of Gettysburg, providing handouts to clarify the events of this complex battle.  This will be followed by an opportunity for audience members to view & handle the artifacts.  This What's Falmouth Reading? event examines issues raised by the 2012 town wide read:  Seen the Glory: a Novel of the battle of Gettysburg, by John Hough Jr., & is made possible with support from the Friends of the Falmouth Public Library.  This program will be enjoyed by young & old from age 9 to 90!
