Bentonville, N.C. will be the next stop on the Foundation of Wayne Community College’s series of lectures on American Civil War battles.
Dean Harry, the president of the Friends of Bentonville Battlefield, will present on the March 1865 battle on Tuesday, March 17.
The Battle of Bentonville was the last full-scale action of the Civil War in which a Confederate army was able to mount a tactical offensive. It was the only substantial effort to rout Gen. William T. Sherman’s Union army as it marched through the state.
Harry, a founding member of the Bentonville organization, is also a certified Bentonville battlefield guide, a licensed battlefield guide at Gettysburg, PA, and a re-enactor with Company D of the 27th North Carolina Infantry.
The last lecture in the series will be “Sherman’s Occupation of Goldsborough, N.C.” on April 21.
All are set for 7 p.m. and will be held in Moffatt Auditorium. They are free and open to the public with no reservations or registrations required.
For more information, contact the Foundation at (919) 739-7007 or awnorthington@waynecc.edu.
