Next Meeting: April 23, 2024
The border state of Maryland was
not the scene of large number of Civil War
battles, however, some of those battles
(like Monocracy) had a major impact on the
status of the war in general and the
ideology of the entire nation. One such
battle was
Fox’s Gap.
Join the Baltimore Civil War Roundtable
(BCWRT) on Tuesday, April 23 at 7:30 p.m. as
we feature author Curtis L. Older in a
presentation of his book,
Hood's Defeat Near Fox's Gap: Prelude to
Emancipation.
The meeting will take place at the Parkville
Senior Center, 8601 Harford Rd, Parkville,
MD 21234. (Enter parking lot from Hiss Ave.
Use rear entrance to Center.)
Curtis Older details
this action, part of the September 14, 1862
Battle of South Mountain, rebuffing a
significant amount of incorrect material
published about this battle, this new
account of the battle of South Mountain
gives the reader the opportunity to
re-examine and re-interpret the Maryland
campaign. As a prelude to the Battle of
Antietam, The United States ultimately
received Lincoln’s Emancipation
Proclamation.
One can order autographed hardbound copies
of the
Hood's Defeat Near Fox's Gap: Prelude to
Emancipation for
$20 and delivered to your home via
Curt Older, 2417 Kinmere Drive, Gastonia, NC

Remember, come join us on Tuesday, April 23
at 7:30 p.m. as we feature author

Hood's Defeat Near Fox's Gap: Prelude to
Emancipation.
