SUMMARY:2nd Saturday Civil War Series: The World Will Never See the Like - The Gettysburg Reunion of 1913 with John L. Hopkins
DESCRIPTION:In Person in the Lincoln Gallery at ACFL&MH \n\n\n\nZoom: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/9370579279Meeting ID: 937 057 9279 \n\n\n\nJohn L. Hopkins will join us to talk about his book\, The World Will Never See the Like: The Gettysburg Reunion of 1913\, which The Wall Street Journal called “a compelling\, poignant and sometimes heartbreaking account of the biggest gathering of the Blue and Gray since the Civil War.” \n\n\n\nIt’s a story of 53\,000 old comrades and former foes reunited and of the tension\, even half a century later\, between competing narratives of reconciliation and remembrance. For seven days the old soldiers lived under canvas in the stifling heat in a 280-acre encampment run by the U.S. Army. They swapped stories\, debated still-simmering controversies about the battle\, and on July 3 the survivors of Pickett’s Division and the Philadelphia Brigade shook hands across the wall on Cemetery Ridge. \n\n\n\nHopkins is a retired communication and public relations professional with more than three decades of experience in higher education\, nonprofit\, and agency settings. He was born and raised in New York City\, earned a bachelor’s degree from Williams College\, and was transplanted with his family to the Midwest 30 years ago. This is his first book.
