Join Harriet Bey Mesic, author of "Beside the Stone Wall in Fredericksburg, Virginia," for a presentation on the book and the research involved. Sunday, December 6th, 2:30-4:30.
It has been said that of all the towns impacted by the Civil War, none suffered more than Fredericksburg, Virginia and the people of very modest means who lived on the edge of town along the Sunken Road. Their bullet-riddled homes were located right on the battleground.
Utilizing history books, diaries, court records, old newspapers, and family traditions, the author has sought to make the story of Lewis Wrenn as historically accurate as possible. The story of Lewis Wrenn is also the story of all the brave people of Fredericksburg.
