“Noble Hearts: Civil War Vermont”
Sunday, November 22, 3:00 PM
Wardsboro Public Library, 170 Main Street, Wardsboro

Noble Hearts presents a vivid picture of some of the most important encounters between the Union Army’s Vermont regiments and the Confederate States of America armies through interviews, historic photos and living history events. Letters written by Vermont soldiers provide personal insights. Modern living history events portray period military life as re-enactors wear uniforms, sleep on rubber blankets and learn to use the old weapons. Excerpts from women’s diaries provide a glimpse into life at home in Vermont.

Authors Howard Coffin, Don Wickman, and other Civil War specialists contribute their perspectives on this extraordinary era of American history. Footage was recorded at actual battlefields.

Event is free and open to the public.
