Abstract
Recently a couple of my close friends and I were hanging out in downtown Gettysburg, looking for trouble, err I mean, fun.

When one of them suggested that we give the Shriver House a whirl, I admit, I was a little uneasy at first. [excerpt]

Interpreting the Civil War: Connecting the Civil War to the American Public is written by alum and adjunct professor, John Rudy. Each post is his own opinions, musings, discussions, and questions about the Civil War era, public history, historical interpretation, and the future of history. In his own words, it is "a blog talking about how we talk about a war where over 600,000 died, 4 million were freed and a nation forever changed. Meditating on interpretation, both theory and practice, at no charge to you."
