The
Cleveland Civil War Roundtable is a nonprofit, all volunteer historical society and social
group founded in 1956 and dedicated to the study and discussion of the
American Civil War. Its approximately 120 members range in age from 17 to 94
and reflect every level of historical interest and expertise. The common bond
shared by its members is the belief that the Civil War is the defining event
of American history. (More on
Cleveland Civil War Roundtable history.)
The Roundtable
meets over dinner on the second Wednesday of the month from September through
May to hear talks by noted Civil War historians and authors as well as by
members. Additionally, the Roundtable organizes a field trip each summer to a
Civil War battlefield or related site. Recent destinations have included
Gettysburg, PA, Fredericksburg, VA, Franklin, TN, Vicksburg, MS and Shiloh,
TN. The club is also active in various Civil War educational and
preservationist causes and publishes a newsletter, The Charger, each month of
the nine-month Roundtable season as well as this web site.
