Ed Bearss-- Part 4: An Experience


Beginning in 1951, he began leading Civil War tours for the prestigious Chicago Civil War Round Table.  Today, even well into his nineties, he is on the road as many as 200 days a year speaking or giving tours.

He lives in Arlington County, Virginia.

The Northern Illinois Civil War Round Table getting him to speak was quite a feat.  I thank them for giving me another chance to see  him.

I saw him in Smithville, North Carolina, where he was keynote speaker of a Battle of Bentonville/Carolina Campaign symposium.

This Was Quite An Experience for Me.  --Old Secesh
