Interpreting the Civil War at Museums and Historic Sites synopsis
Historians working in museums and historical sites that focus on the era of civil war have been explaining a controversial period of history. Many visitors have strong links to historical sites such as battlefields and artifacts, as well as strong convictions about the cause of the war and its consequences and the importance of slavery. The interpretation of civil war in museums and historical sites reviews how museums and historical sites approached these and other challenges during the civil war (2011-2015).
In doing so, this book offers museums and strategies for dating professionals to help shape conversations with local communities, develop exhibitions and train translators. With the controversy over the display of battle science and the aftermath of the fighting, there was no more appropriate moment to consider decisively how the civil war was interpreted and why many Americans still cared.
Each chapter is written by a professional historian who currently works in a museum or historical site. It covers topics such as: * Building relationships with the public * How museums interpreted war and overcome the challenges of the site, the public and funding * How National Parks Service and the Georgia Historical Society approached the celebration of important anniversary celebrations..
