SUMMARY:York Civil War Roundtable
DESCRIPTION:May 20\, 2026 – Codie Eash – “The Nation Shall Live and Slavery Shall Die”: The Presidential Election of 1864 \nThis program will be in person and available on Zoom. \nIn person registration \nZoom registration \nAs Americans struggled through the Civil War’s fourth autumn\, voters cast their ballots in the presidential election of 1864. The campaign pitted incumbent Abraham Lincoln against his former general-in-chief\, George McClellan\, and its results framed the ultimate effects of the conflict itself. Soldiers and citizens determined whether the nation would quell a rebellion\, or open peace negotiations; expand the rights of freed people\, or de-emphasize personal liberties; and end slavery\, or keep the institution intact. More than any wartime event not decided on a battlefield\, the course and consequences of this election are among the most significant in U.S. history. \nCodie Eash serves as Director of Education and Interpretation at Seminary Ridge Museum and Education Center on the historic campus of the Lutheran Seminary in Gettysburg\, Pennsylvania\, where he has served several roles as a member of the staff since 2012. He earned his undergraduate degree in Communication/Journalism at Shippensburg University of Pennsylvania in 2014\, and began working on his Master’s in American History at Gettysburg College in 2024. In addition to museum tours and interpretation\, Codie lectures for American Battlefield Trust conferences\, National Park Service sites\, Civil War roundtables\, libraries\, and other community organizations. He is a founding contributor to Pennsylvania in the Civil War\, reviews books for Civil War Monitor and Emerging Civil War\, writes articles for W. Britain’s The Standard\, and serves as a member on the Gettysburg Magazine editorial board. \n

SUMMARY:Civil War Roundtable\, February
DESCRIPTION:Between Fort Sumter and Appomattox\, Confederates bought and sold thousands of men\, women\, and children through a persistence trade in enslaved people. These transactions had profound impacts on the enslaved\, their lives and families\, and the ways in which they pursued — or did not pursue — freedom during the war. Robert K. D. Colby\, assistant professor of history at the University of Mississippi\, brings these stories to light at the February Roundtable (ZOOM ONLY). The stories come from his first book\, “An Unholy Traffic: Slave Trading in the Civil War South\,” published in 2024 by Oxford University Press. \nFind Professor Colby’s book on Amazon. \nThis is an online Zoom program only. If you have any difficulty registering\, please contact Nicole Smith at nsmith@yorkhistorycenter.org.  \nGo back to the Civil War Roundtable program page.
