General Grant enjoys a reputation as a fine horseman\, but it’s not just flesh and blood horses\, but the Iron Horse as well that Grant appreciates. In this meeting with the Lincoln’s General In Chief\, he will give some background on the development of rail roads in America during his own formative years\, and will describe how the nation and its rail roads grew up together\, in those tumultuous years of the American Civil War. Gen. Grant will relate his own experiences with trains and railroading from his youth through becoming the victor of the civil war through stories and artifacts from the period.\n\nIf you are a fan of US history\, no matter a student of the civil war\, or America’s rail roads\, or life in the 1800’s\, this encounter will engage and cross over to many areas of interest.\n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”44px” hide_on_wide=”” hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=””][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/6″ icons_position=”left”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/5″ icons_position=”left”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/5″ icons_position=”left”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/5″ icons_position=”left”][vc_btn title=”REGISTER HERE TO GET YOUR E-TICKET” style=”classic” color=”primary” size=”lg” align=”center” button_block=”true” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fforms.gle%2FxPGU4RCZfaFietDs7|title:General%20Grant%20and%20Civil%20War%20Rail%20Roads|target:_blank”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/5″ icons_position=”left”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/5″ icons_position=”left”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
