Words at War: Communication in 18th Century South Carolina.
Have you ever wondered how soldiers communicated during the Revolutionary War? Join us for our next Lunch and Learn with living historian Bill Williamson, who portrays a SC Militia soldier tasked with writing correspondence for officers and letters for fellow soldiers who could not write for themselves. Bill will walk us through the tools, the process, and the surprisingly vital role that written communication played in 18th century life.
Lunch and Learn is sponsored by the Chapman Cultural Center
Admission: $5 for non-members / Free for SCHA members.
Don’t forget to bring your lunch!
