Reenactment @ Baldwin City, Kansas

michael — Fri, 04 Jun 2010 15:46:18 +0000

I will be appearing at the 154th Anniversary of the Battle of Black Jack in Baldwin City, Kansas for a lecture and book signing. Arguably the first skirmish of the Civil War, the Battle of Black Jack (1856), focused the lens of national anxiety in antebellum America on Kansas when John Brown’s anti-slavery forces defeated Henry Pate and his pro-slavery guerrillas.

This will be a first class event with something of interest for everyone.
