Columbia Burning - Don1946 - 12-05-2014 04:40 PM
Some of you may be interested in a rich program of talks, tours, and other events taking place in Columbia, South Carolina surrounding the 150th anniversary of Sherman's visit to the capital of South Carolina on February 17, 1865.
The program will include several historians with recent books bearing on Sherman's March and South Carolina during the Civil War.
The website includes a wonderful archive of photographs and illustrations: http://burningofcolumbia.com/
The local chamber of commerce recently adopted as Columbia's slogan "Famously Hot!" a clever reference to its history and its weather.
Come on down.
