Program Description

Event Details

Join authors Julia and Mark Brugh as they discuss their book, The Civil War Ghosts of Sharpsburg. Also known as the Battle of Antietam, and referred to as the bloodiest battle of the Civil War, this event took place in September 1862.  So many were lost that their spirits still haunt the town.  Mark will discuss his book documenting the Ghosts as well as his process and research for this important resource.  New authors as well as history buffs will enjoy this program. Join us for discussion and tea. (Books will be available for purchase.)
