The Virginia Center for the Civil War Studies at Virginia Tech presents the online virtual public lecture titled "The Howling Storm: Weather, Climate, and the American Civil War" online on Zoom on Wednesday, February 21, 2024.
Join us for an online talk with Kenneth W. Noe on weather and the Civil War, based on his book, "The Howling Storm: Weather, Climate, and the American Civil War".
The Civil War was fought outdoors. Although we often fail to conceive of it in an environmental context, the soldiers did just that. Unusual weather conditions shaped both military campaigns and food production on the home front, and played a significant role in the outcome.
"The Howling Storm" was a Lincoln Prize finalist in 2021 and co-winner of the 2022 Colonel Richard W. Ulbrich Memorial Book Award.
