SUMMARY:Jon Sebastian — We Are All in This War – The Northern Homefront
DESCRIPTION:EVENT DETAILS: \nJon Sebastian — We Are All in This War – The Northern Homefront\n5:30 p.m. – Registration/Social Hour\n6:30 p.m. – Dinner\n7:30 p.m. – Program\nCost: $35 by reservation\, please RSVP by 12/2\n(Note: Jackets required for the dining room) \nRSVP: \nPlease contact Paul Eilbes at 262.376.0568 or peilbes@gmail.com to RSVP by 12/2. NOTE: this meeting will take place at the Bavarian Bierhaus (700 W. Lexington Blvd\, Glendale\, WI). \nABOUT THE EVENT: \nWhile the battles were mostly fought in the South\, the people of the North were directly impacted and affected by the Civil War. Many aspects of life\, even mundane daily tasks\, were different. What were the experiences of those on the home front? How were they changed? And who were the Victorians? (Not the Steampunk variety) Where did they fit in? What about industrialization\, transportation\, and technology? And\, of course\, there were times when the Northern home front did become the battle front. Perhaps this side of the war deserves a closer look. \nABOUT THE SPEAKER: \nJonathan Sebastian earned his B.A. in history from Judson College (now University) and his M.A. in Public History from Loyola University Chicago. He has been an adjunct professor of history at Judson University teaching World History 1500 to the Present and U.S. History. More recently\, he was a social studies teacher at Woodlands Academy of the Sacred Heart. He was a tour guide at Jubilee College State Historic site outside of Peoria\, Illinois\, a projectbased researcher at the Pritzker Military Library\, and was the curator of the Fischer Farm historic site in Bensenville\, Illinois. Currently\, he is an experience facilitator at the Arlington Heights Historical Museum and the education and programs assistant at the Elmhurst History Museum. He is also the author of Bensenville in the Arcadia Press Images of America Series.

DESCRIPTION:EVENT DETAILS: \nDr. Jen Murray — The Victor of Gettysburg: General George Gordon Meade & the Civil War\n5:30 p.m. – Registration/Social Hour\n6:30 p.m. – Dinner\n7:30 p.m. – Program\nCost: $35 by reservation\, please\n(Note: Jackets required for the dining room) \nRSVP: \nPlease contact Paul Eilbes at 262.376.0568 or peilbes@gmail.com to RSVP. We hope to see you there! \nABOUT THE EVENT: \nOnce prominently defined as the “Hero of Gettysburg\,” General George G. Meade is now commonly obscured by generals deeply embedded into the Civil War narrative–Grant\, Sherman\, and Sheridan or Lee and Jackson. Indeed\, Meade commanded the Army of the Potomac\, the North’s principle instrument of war\, longer than any other commander and assumed a prominent role in the course of the Civil War. Together\, we will explore George Meade’s role and influence in the Civil War from his command of a brigade in the Pennsylvania Reserves to the commanding general of the Army of the Potomac. \nABOUT THE SPEAKER: \nDr. Jennifer M. Murray is a military historian\, with a specialization in the American Civil War\, in the Department of History at Oklahoma State University.

We hope to see you there! \nABOUT THE EVENT: \nCharles Knight’s new From Arlington to Appomattox: Robert E. Lee’s Civil War Day by Day\, 1861-1865 recreates those four years of Lee’s life – at least as much as is possible at 150+ years distance. It is often forgotten that in addition to his duties as a general\, Lee was still a husband\, father\, and friend. He lost a daughter\, sister\, two grandchildren\, daughter-in-law\, and his home during the war. \nIn this presentation Knight shares some of the results of years of research into Lee’s actions during the war years; previously unknown sources\, inconsistencies that confused Freeman and dozens of other historians over the years\, memorable anecdotes of Lee’s daily life\, and other historical “nuggets” that came to light in his research.

In February 1862\, the camp was converted to accommodate Confederate Prisoners of War. About 24\,000 Confederates were held there during the war\, of which 6\,000 died. The story is well-told. Yet lesser known is the story of the thousands of Union POWs who were held in the camp awaiting exchange. After the surrender of Harpers Ferry in September 1862 the paroled Union soldiers were interred in parole camps. More than 8\,000 of them were sent to Camp Douglas. \n  \nOur January speaker\, Rob Girardi\, will present an account of their troublesome experiences in Chicago.
