The evening with Ed Bearss was superb. He has the best stories both on Civil War history and his personal life.
His recounting of being wounded in battle in WWII was told like he was talking about A.S. Johnson being wounded at Shiloh. Thankfully, the outcome was different.
A highlight of the evening was having Jack Waugh do the "interview." Jack was able to keep it flowing and asked the right questions to keep up the interest of the group. Many said it was one of the best meetings we have ever had.
Ed's health is good. He lit up when I mentioned that Mike and Giro said hello!
