The Steven and Janice Brose Lectures in the Civil War Era
The Brose Distinguished Lecture Series was endowed by Steven ('69) and Janice Brose to encourage senior scholars to explore fresh ways of considering the Civil War era. Each Brose speaker comes to Penn State's University Park campus and delivers three lectures over the course of three days centered on a theme chosen by the speaker.
In order to share this work with the public and the greater academic community, the Richards Civil War Era Center has partnered with the University of North Carolina Press to publish expanded versions of these talks as the Steven and Janice Brose Lectures in the Civil War Era. Richards Center Director William Blair serves as editor of this innovative book series.
