Today, Og's suggesting that you enjoy a lecture from Roots Television's New and Featured channel, titled In the Presence of Mine Enemies: War in the Heart of America, 1859 - 1863, from the UVA NewsMakers, that takes a new look at the reasons behind the Civil War. History Professor and Dean of the College and Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, Edward L. Ayers, Ph.D., decided to re-examine the real reasons behind the Civil War after determining that commonly held beliefs regarding the conflict between the northern industrial society and southern agrarian society just weren’t as valid as originally thought. So whether you’re a history buff, a war buff, or are just interested in looking at this war in a different light, you’re sure to enjoy this new programming.
