The one-day conference, sponsored by the Harold B. Simpson History Complex of Hill College, the Austin Civil War Roundtable, and the Waco Civil War Roundtable, will be held at Hill College on Saturday, November 18, 2000. We expect this year's event to be the largest and most successful ever. Tenn. Presentations will also be given by living historians and preservationists Steve von Roeder of the Austin Capitol Guards and Robert Lee Hodge, the main figure in Pulitzer Prize-winning author Tony Horwitz's best seller, Confederates in the Attic. Lectures will be held throughout the day. In addition, participants will have an opportunity to visit a Civil War vendor mall and stroll through a period encampment.
Participants can pay at the door.
Proceeds from both the seminar and lunch will benefit the Simpson History Complex and CWPT's battlefield preservation efforts. Seventh annual Texas Civil War Seminar. The Civil War Preservation Trust Copyright 2001 by the Civil War Preservation Trust.
