SUMMARY:Friends of Princeton University Library Small Talk with Jeaninne Honstein and Steven Knowlton
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a Friends Small Talk with Jeaninne Surette Honstein 
 and Steven Knowlton who will present their adventure in discovering\, 
 transcribing\, and annotating an incredible manuscript that details the 
 thrilling and sometimes horrifying ordeals of a starving prisoner in the 
 last 13 months of the Civil War. \n\n“Thirteen Months in Dixie” is a 
 rollicking tale of adventure\, captivity\, hardship\, and heroism during 
 the last year of the Civil War in a first-hand account by Oscar Federhen. 
 Federhen wrote his recollections not long after the war\, but they were 
 hidden away for decades as a family heirloom.\n\nFederhen was a new recruit 
 to the 13th Independent Battery\, Massachusetts Light Artillery\, when he 
 shipped out to Louisiana in the spring of 1864 to participate in the Red 
 River Campaign. Not long after his arrival at the front\, a combination of 
 ill-luck and bad timing led to his capture. Federhen was marched overland 
 to Tyler\, Texas\, where he was held as a prisoner of war in Camp Ford\, 
 the largest POW camp west of the Mississippi River.\n\nWe welcome current 
 Friends of PUL members to attend in person. A reception will follow the 
 live talk. You can check your membership status by emailing 
 libraryf@princeton.edu.\n\nThe presentation will also be available by 
 Zoom.\n\nRegistration via this website is now closed. Please email 
 libraryf@princeton.edu if you would like to attend.
