About this Event
The second Sunday in this speaker series features Jared Peatman and his book “A Hell of a Regiment: To Gettysburg and Beyond with the Twentieth Maine.” In this book the author “has accomplished something difficult here: an original book about one of the most famous regiments of the Union army in the American Civil War, the 20th Maine Infantry. Their fight on Little Round Top on July 2 is well known, but what Peatman does is help the reader understand what made the regiment and enabled its famous stand. And he carries their story beyond Gettysburg, through the grim years of 1864-65, and to the postwar, where the veterans tried to rebuild their lives and remember their service.” -D. Scott Hartwig.
