The History Forum 2012-13: "This Fiery Trial: The U.S. Civil War" has ended. Please check back this summer for info on the 2013-14 season. 

The Civil War divided the United States in half, left over 750,000 dead and released four million souls from bondage. One hundred and fifty years later, it remains the crucible in which the challenges and struggles of modern America were made.

Due to popular demand, each lecture will be offered at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.
