Sesquicentennial Moments
Occasional Notes for the Virginia Commission on the
Sesquicentennial of the American Civil War

The Virginia Sesquicentennial of the American Civil War Commission has initiated a series of brief historical notes on specific events before and during the Civil War. These occasional notes, entitled Sesquicentennial Moments, will be brief, objective, and well-documented overviews of selected important topics of interest to the general reader. Sesquicentennial Moments will be released periodically, with a wide variety of topics that generally parallel what was happening at that time 150 years ago.
