The Civil War Trust held its 18th Annual Conference in June, this year in beautiful Chattanooga, Tennessee. More than 400 attendees spent four days touring the Chattanooga and Chickamauga battlefields, with some of the nation’s elite historians, and celebrating the Trust's 30th Anniversary. Thank you to everyone who attended!
Our next Annual Conference will be May 30–June 3, 2018, in Newport News, Virginia.
