Ernie Dollar Program: End of Civil War Wake County

🛡️ The End of the Civil War in Wake County: A Special Guest Presentation
How did the final days of the Civil War truly reshape our local community?
Join the Wendell Historical Society on the evening of February 19th for a deep dive into the closing chapters of the Civil War right here in Wake County. We are honored to host Ernest A. Dollar Jr., Director of Museums for the City of Raleigh and author of the acclaimed book Hearts Torn Asunder.
Ernest will guide us through the gripping, often overlooked history of the last campaign in North Carolina, exploring the psychological and social impact on the soldiers and civilians who lived through it. Bring your questions and your love for local history. We can’t wait to see you there!
