‘Stonewall in the Valley’ examines Jackson’s Shenandoah campaign

Dr. Thomas D. Veve, a professor of history at Dalton State College, will examine one of the best-known figures of the Civil War in a program at 6 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 1. The campaign conducted by Confederate Maj. Gen. Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia in the spring of 1862 is considered one of the most brilliant in U.S. military history. Vastly outnumbered, and at times facing three Union armies, Jackson managed to march his Army of the Valley hundreds of miles and fight a series of engagements in a masterpiece of military skill that created a grand diversion, preventing thousands of Union troops from threatening Richmond. Presented by the Bandy Heritage Center for Northwest Georgia, "Stonewall in the Valley" will run from 6 to 7:30 p.m. in Room 105 of the James E. Brown Center on the Dalton, Ga., campus, 650 College Drive. Admission is free. Call 706-272-4452 for more information.
