SUMMARY:The Surrenders of the Confederacy
DESCRIPTION:The Confederate surrender at Appomattox featured the stacking of arms\, the surrender of colors\, and the review of troops—a noble and orderly ceremony that has captured the American imagination for 160 years. But Appomattox was only the beginning of the end. Beyond Virginia\, the Confederacy surrendered in bits and pieces\, in a series of scattered events marked by confusion\, chaos\, and controversy lacking all of Appomattox’s romance and reconciliation. The last flag down wouldn’t even come until November. Join us for a trip to places American history has forgotten: Bennett Place\, North Carolina; Citronelle\, Alabama; Galveston\, Texas; Doaksville\, Oklahoma; and more. \n\n\n\nPresented by Dr. Chris Mackowski\, co-founder of Emerging Civil War

SUMMARY:"Now We Stand By Each Other Always" - a performance in three acts.
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.
