Noted author Paul Semendinger will discuss his latest book "West Point at Gettysburg Vol. 1 (A-G)" on Wednesday, March 11 at 7 p.m. in Room 2. This program is sponsored by The Friends of the Englewood Library. "Professors at West Point taught cadets how to be officers and lead men into combat, but could not foresee that friends and barracks mates would clash near Gettysburg in July of 1863. Dr. Semendinger's first of three volumes has compiled details on West Point graduates (A to G) in that battle, both North and South, including official reports. His research shows how well those officers had been taught to command soldiers in such a cataclysmic battle. West Point at Gettysburg should be on every Civil War shelf."-Alan D. Gaff, author of On Many a Bloody Field: Four Years in the Iron Brigade "Paul Semendinger has produced a unique volume that is a combination reference work, collective biography, and narrative of the battle of Gettysburg. In all of these capacities, it will be of great value to anyone interested in the American Civil War, especially its biggest and most famous battle."-James M. McPherson, Princeton University, author of Battle Cry of Freedom Due to limited space, you need to register for this exciting program Dr. Semendinger will have copies of the book for sale after the program.
