Lincoln and Davis White Houses
Subject of Lecture
Thursday, September 24, 2009, 7:30 to 9:00 p.m.
Alice Haynes Room, University of Richmond
Richmond, VA: Presidents Lincoln and Davis at Home is the topic of a
talk to be given by renowned historian and author, Dr. William Seale,
specialist in the history and restoration of American buildings. This
year's lecture is intended to commemorate the bicentennial birthdays of
Jefferson Davis (2008) and Abraham Lincoln (2009). The lecture is part
of the Museum of the Confederacy's annual Bottimore Lectures, made
possible by the Roller-Bottimore Foundation, and is co-sponsored by
the University of Richmond Department of History, Preservation Virginia,
the Historic Richmond Foundation, and the Virginia Center for
Architecture. Dr. Seale's book, The President's House, was reprinted in
2008 and will be available for sale. Richard Norton Smith, Presidential
Historian, has said of this work: "Nobody knows more about the White
House than William Seale, and no one can match his gift for making
America's House come alive through centuries."
While there is no charge for this event, reservations are required and
may be made on the museum's website: www.moc.org
