DESCRIPTION:Rudely Stamp’d Historical Impressions presents “Now We Stand by Each Other Always” November 14th at the American Civil War Museum at Appomattox Court House. \n\n\n\nThis three-act play features a series of conversations between Genls. Grant and Sherman over the course of the Civil War.  These conversations take place at key moments in the war and demonstrate the evolving friendship between the men – Vicksburg\, MS in 1863\, Cincinnati\, OH in 1864 and City Point\, VA in 1865. \n\n\n\nHeroes of the Union war effort\, Grant and Sherman were unlikely friends with dramatically different personalities.  Grant\, ever stoic\, was quiet\, reticent and almost shy.  Sherman\, on the other hand\, was manic\, nervous\, fidgety and intense.  Despite these differences\, the men forged a friendship in the fire of war and led the Union’s armies to ultimate victory.

Lee and John Pope as they converge on ground bloodied just thirteen months earlier. Since then\, the armies had grown in size and efficiency\, and combat between them would dwarf that first battle.

Join us as historians Dan Welch and Kevin Pawlak explore the Battle of Second Manassas.  URL:https://acwm.org/event/virtual-book-talk-never-such-a-campaign/ CATEGORIES:Appomattox Events,Book Talk,For Educators,For Students,Lectures,Members & Donors Only,Panels + Q&As,Richmond Events,Virtual Programs ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://acwm.org/wp-content/uploads/Welch-Pawlak_ACWM-header_1920x180.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20240818T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20240818T170000 DTSTAMP:20260623T120326 CREATED:20240714T222950Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240818T010909Z UID:10000965-1723975200-1724000400@acwm.org SUMMARY:Greenback America Exhibit is Open daily at ACWM-Appomattox DESCRIPTION:Visitors will explore how Americans assigned cultural meaning to money\, and how doing so helped them interpret politics\, patriotism\, and race.
