History 101 - Civil War Talk

September 21, 2015 @ 7:00 pm

“The Murphy Farm - Refuge from Racism” with local author Bob O’Conner. The Murphy Farm is now part of Harpers Ferry National Historical Park. The fascinating story includes Civil War history of the farm during the capture of the Union troops on the Bolivar Heights (the largest surrender in the entire war), the Civil Rights history, and the preservationists fight to save the Murphy Farm. Bob’s eleventh book, The Murphy Farm - Refuge from Racism, will be published later this year.
