My Talk at Beauvoir, 10-15-16

Well, my enjoyment of a flawless presentation experience appears to have been relegated to a singular event.  Unlike at the Pascagoula Public Library, the haints possessed my equipment once again for my talk at the Jefferson Davis Presidential Library located on the grounds of Beauvoir.

Does a Woman Soldier Haunt a National Cemetery?

Women soldiers went to extreme measures to blend in while in the ranks, their true identity hidden.  However, there may be one female fighter who is finally trying to make herself visible, an act she so desperately tried to avoid 150 years ago.

My Presentation at Beauvoir, 10/18/14

Saturday's presentation at Beauvoir was challenging yet enjoyable. I was scheduled to give the talk in the room downstairs but was moved to the library upstairs, which left us scrambling to find a working screen and more chairs. Thanks to the staff who helped me get everything set up. The room ended up packed and rather warm. Many thanks to those who attended and endured the conditions. I think everybody enjoyed the talk. One lady just shook her head and said, "I had no idea they did this." Two other women were moved to tears, which was a first.
