Presentation & Book Signing: Ma, Wee Got Nuthin Here But Mud and Muskeeters
March 2 @ 11:00 am – 1:00 pm
Between June 1861 and June 1862, the lower Virginia Peninsula from Fort Monroe to Richmond changed from a quiet backwater to the focus of the Civil War. In his latest book, first-person historian Jeff Toalson uses the voices of 67 soldiers, sailors, and citizens to tell more than 400 stories taken from diaries, journals, and letters about events around Gloucester, Fort Monroe, Yorktown, Newport News, Williamsburg, and Seven Pines. Mr. Toalson reminds the reader that to understand this terrible conflict you must read the accounts of those who experienced it.
The Williamsburg Battlefield Association invites you to a presentation of Ma, Wee Got Nuthin Here But Mud and Muskeeters by author Jeff Toalson. A book signing will follow with copies available for $25. Proceeds will benefit the WBA.
