SUMMARY:Forging Independence: Oxford Iron Works and the American Revolution
DESCRIPTION:Join historian Keith Harvey for a special lecture on Oxford Furnace and its role in the American Revolution. \n\n\n\nOxford Furnace\, located in present-day Campbell and Appomattox counties\, was one of the largest suppliers of iron to the Continental Army during the American Revolution.
