This blog grew out of my "Down Da Road I Go Blog," which was originally to be about stuff I was interested in, music and what I was doing. There was so much history and Civil War entries, I spun two more off. Starting Jan. 1, 2012, I will be spinning a Naval blog off this one called "Running the Blockade."

Turning Point(s) of the Civil War for McHenry County Civil War Round Table Discussion Group This Saturday
The McHenry County Civil War Round Table (MCCWRT) Discussion Group will meet this Saturday, July 27, at Panera Bread on Crystal Lake, Illinois, at 6000 Northwest Highway (US-14) at 10 a.m.. This month's focus topic will be"The Turning Point of the Civil War."
It should be interesting to see what folks think.
Obviously that double July 1863 catastrophe at Gettysburg and Vicksburg would receive considerable emphasis.
I'd like to add Abraham Lincoln, the Emancipation Proclamation and the Union industrial might to the mix.
You don't have to be a member to attend.
Come On Down. --Old Secesh
