Talkin’ Sherman in Charlottesville

I had the honor of talking to the Charlottesville Civil War Round Table in Virginia recently as their first in-person guest in over three years (COVID, of course). The group meets in the splendid Rotunda Room at Westminster Canterbury of the Blue Ridge.

The one hour event was preceded by a lovely dinner, thanks to my generous hosts. The enthusiastic crowd of about fifty guests were happy to be back to meeting in person and were very kind with comments about the program. And while Sherman can attract some passionate criticism, the Virginia folks either withheld their vitriol for the red-head or did not entertain such thoughts.
