"Was the Civil War a Holy War?" by Civil War historian Dr. George Rable

Just a reminder about this exciting upcoming speaker (and cultural credit) at 11:00 am on Tuesday, April 12. Renown Civil War historian Dr. George Rable will be presenting "Was the Civil War a Holy War?" in the Munger Auditorium. Tuesday is actually the sesquicentennial of the beginning of the Civil War so there's no better time to go learn more about it. For the discussion, Dr. Rable will be drawing on some of the themes from his recently published book entitled God's Almost Chosen Peoples: A Religious History of the American Civil War. Rable's books have won great critical acclaim including the Lincoln Prize and the Jefferson Davis award. He is also Professor and Charles G. Summersell Chair in Southern History at the University of Alabama. For more information on this event, please contact Dr. Guy W. Hubbs at (205) 226-4752.
