The Harrisburg Civil War Round Table will meet on Friday, Dec. 6, at the Central Penn College Conference Center, 600 Valley Road, Enola. Doors will open at 5:30 p.m., and a buffet dinner will be served at 6 p.m. Anyone wishing to attend the lecture only should arrive by 7 p.m. The lecture will also be broadcast via Zoom.

Jennifer Murray, a military historian from Oklahoma State University, will speak on the complex command relationship between Maj. Gen. George Gordon Meade and Lt. Gen. Ulysses S. Grant during the bitterly fought Overland Campaign of 1864.

Murray is currently working on a full-length biography, tentatively titled "Meade at War," that is a comprehensive treatment of Meade's life with a focus on his military career in the Army of the Potomac. She is a veteran faculty member at Gettysburg College's Civil War Institute and a speaker at Civil War symposiums and round tables across the nation.

The lecture is free, and there is a fee for the dinner, payable at the door. To make reservations for the dinner by noon on Monday, Dec. 2, contact Michael Margolius at hcwrt.membership@gmail.com or visit https://harrisburgcwrt.org.
