USS Monitor Legacy Program: The Master of Amphibious Operations: George Brinton McClellan
Join us at The Mariners' for our popular series, USS Monitor Legacy Program, that highlights the history and lasting impact of USS Monitor through a variety of public events in partnership with the NOAA Monitor National Marine Sanctuary. John V. Quarstein, director emeritus of the USS Monitor Center, will present the multifaceted history of USS Monitor, and the program will be in person and livestreamed from the Explorers Theater at the Museum.
Attendees are welcome to send comments or questions to John, and he will answer them following his talk. Advance registration is required whether you attend this event in person or online.
About the presentation: Major General George McClellan’s concepts of combined operations nearly enabled the United States to win the war in 1862. McClellan helped to organize Burnside’s Roanoke Island Expedition, Farragut’s Capture of New Orleans, and his own 1862 Peninsula Campaign.
