GDG- Ask Edward Ayers

[Civil War Forum]

The Civil War Forum is hosting a free, one-hour Q&A session this  
coming Saturday, October 7th, and fellow history enthusiasts from the  
GDG are cordially invited to attend.

Professor Edward L. Ayers will be the guest, beginning at 4:00 p.m.  
EST in the Forum's "Room 1." He'll be on hand to discuss his various  
Civil War-related titles, including  "What Caused the Civil War?  
Reflections on the South and Southern History," "In the Presence of  
Mine Enemies," and his innovative work with the Valley of the Shadow  
web site. Ayers is the Dean of the College and Graduate School of  
Arts and Sciences at the University of Virginia.

The Civil War Forum Conference Series is a wonderful opportunity to  
ask questions directly of today's foremost Civil War authors and  
historians in a moderated, chat room setting. First time visitors  
will be prompted to create a screen name and password, but that's it.
