Sunday January 28 - “If I ever get back to you I will live a different life;” The life and letters of the Iron Brigade’s John Pardington and his wife Sara
Dr. Peter Carmichael, Civil War Institute Gettysburg College

Join Dr. Peter Carmichael, the Fluhrer Professor of History and the Director of the Civil War Institute at Gettysburg College, for this fascinating examination of the correspondence between John Pardington, an enlisted man in the 24th Michigan Volunteer Infantry, and his wife. In this revealing correspondence, the experience of the common soldier on the front lines comes to life and reveals the important connections between the battlefield and the home front.

Catch our interview, on Patreon, with Zachery Fry, about his book, “A Republic in the Ranks”, which Dr. Carmichael recommends in the lecture. We made it available to you for free and we hope against hope that you will join us as a member of our Officers’ Club, so that you may further your Gettysburg education with the hundreds of episodes available to you there.
