Our Wednesday, January 15th in-person program, Ken Frey, a living historian will portray General George Pickett. We will learn of his early life and military career, the Civil War, Pickett’s Charge, and later life. Pickett’s Charge is often seen as a symbol of the Confederacy’s declining fortunes and the bravery of its soldiers, even in the face of overwhelming odds. It remains one of the most famous and tragic events of the Civil War.
This is an in-person-only event presented in the Assembly Room of the A.K. Smiley Public Library, 125 W. Vine St., Redlands, CA. The program begins at 6:30, but come early and visit with other members and guest.
