OLLI- Arkansas In The Civil War

OLLI- Arkansas In The Civil War

Plunge into the chaos of Arkansas’ Civil War experience. Dr. Georgena Duncan, retired history professor, will lead the class through the Secession, battles at Pea Ridge and Prairie Grove, and then the slow, sure Union occupation of Little Rock, Fort Smith and the Arkansas River Valley. Focus will center on how this led northern Arkansas and the River Valley to destruction by guerillas, and Confederate operations still proceeding in southern Arkansas. Participants will see what a major impact the war had on population and economic development for the state.
