CANCELLED due to COVID-19 Courthouse Speaker Series: David Snider - "Sheridan Unvarnished"
2020-10-30 19:00 - 20:00
Join us as we welcome David Snider for a presentation on General Phil Sheridan!
CANCELLED due to COVID-19
David Snider, local historian, Somerset native, trustee and past president of the Perry County Historical Society works for the Perry Soil & Water Conservation District. David was a “Civil War Centennial Baby” and cut his teeth on Catton, Sandberg and local Sheridan lore. He has been a guest lecturer and advisor for NPR, PBS and several private concerns. His Sheridan presentation is unvarnished and balanced in spite of local conceit rather than because of it.
Snider will discuss General Sheridan’s career from clerking at Finck & Dittoe’s Store to Commander of the Army, with special emphasis on the Civil War years. “Sheridan Unvarnished” provides valuable insight into the challenges of generaling in the mid nineteenth century and how Sheridan solved those problems.
Armies are very good at breaking things and Sheridan was perhaps it greatest practitioner! He was obstinate, arrogant and a swashbuckling lightning rod who cared deeply about his men and the cause.
Snider provides a balanced approach to Sheridan’s moments of triumph and his occasional brushes with disaster, some few of which remain controversial to this day.

CANCELLED due to COVID-19 Courthouse Speaker Series: Spring Wildflowers of Ohio

Under his leadership the Division acquired and dedicated 103 nature preserves and the Ohio Natural Areas program was nationally recognized as one of the outstanding state programs in the country. He also served as Deputy Director of the Ohio Department of Natural Resources. Richard currently serves on the Board of Park Commissioners for the Licking Park District.
His earlier service included appointments as the Chief Naturalist for the Columbus Metro Park District and for the ODNR Division of Parks and Recreation. He was elected to the Ohio Conservation Hall of Fame in 1993.
Moseley has authored books on Ohio’s natural history and remains active in leading wildflower and nature walks in the state.
Ohio Wildflowers: “Let them live in your eye, not die in your hand”.—Richard Moseley
