Kennesaw: One Last Mountain

FIRST SUNDAY LECTURE

"Kennesaw: One Last Mountain"
Sunday, July 13, 2014
3:00-4:00 p.m.
Smyrna Public Library, Meeting Room

On Sunday, July 13 at 3 pm at the Smyrna Public Library, in place of our usual First Sunday Lecture, the Friends of the Smyrna Library will present the film, "Kennesaw: One Last Mountain: the Battle of Kennesaw Mountain and the Atlanta Campaign," the official film of the Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park. This beautifully crafted film, narrated by Emmy Award winning actor Peter Coyote, uses authentic battle recreations and compelling accounts of soldiers, civilians, and freed slaves to bring to life one of the most dramatic episodes of the Civil War, an event that immediately preceded our own July 4 battles of Smyrna Camp Ground and Ruff's Mill (which the city will be commemorating during the first week in July). A representative of the Kennesaw Battlefield Park will be on hand to introduce the film and to answer your questions.

The "First Sunday" lecture series is held in the Smyrna Public Library Meeting Room and is sponsored by the Friends of Smyrna Library.
