DESCRIPTION:Presented by David Connon\nMost Iowans think that the state  
 was solidly pro-Union during the Civil War. After all\, some 75\,000  re
 sidents fought for the North. In reality\, many Iowa Democrats formed a 
  spectrum of dissent. The majority of Democrats opposed abolishing  slav
 ery (and yet favored the Union war effort)\; the minority sympathized  w
 ith the Confederacy. Of this group\, at least 25 Iowa residents served  
 the Confederacy. This talk will focus on five of them. Connon will  expl
 ore their motivations and describe their pre-war\, war-time\, and  post-
 war experiences. He will also explore why their stories have been  large
 ly unknown for the past 150 years.\nThis program is free and open to the
  public
