August 15, 2023 Evening Program
“Schurz at Gettysburg: Profile and battle account of Major General Carl Schurz” featuring LBG Ralph Siegel
Considering his career before, during and after the Civil War, there is a strong case that Carl Schurz was the most influential immigrant leader of the 19 th Century. His electioneering for Lincoln earned him a battlefield commission but did he deserve it? How did Major General Schurz do at Gettysburg and why is he so easily overlooked?
Meeting Place: The tennis courts adjacent to Mummasburg Road about two blocks northwest of the college campus. (DO NOT park on Howard Avenue. Parking is available on public streets and in the tennis court lot) The tour will consist of a moderate walk of half a mile toward Blocher Knoll and back.
Registration will be open until noon the day of the event. Please register on our website as payment cannot be taken on the field.
