CAMDEN — Emmy nominated Maine filmmaker Daniel Lambert will present his film 缅因州的葛底斯堡战役 4月27日星期六下午4点.m., for the last in the Historical Society’s Winter Speaker Series in partnership with the 卡姆登公共图书馆. The talk and 30 minute film will air in the library’s Picker Room followed by Q and A. Please note that this is a change in day and time from the library’s usual schedule.

15个缅因步兵单位, 炮兵, and cavalry – were all part of the Union army at Gettysburg. 他们的贡献是英勇的和至关重要的. What they did when they were called upon helped determine the battle and, ultimately, the Civil War. Wherever the action occurred at that sprawling battlefield, Maine men were in the thick of it. 从魔鬼的巢穴到小圆顶, 从桃园到麦田, 从史蒂文丘陵到墓地岭, 缅因人为联邦而战. Many sacrificed their lives for the idea that the 美国 of America was worth saving.

This film, produced by Lambert, examines the roles of the Maine men who helped to save the nation. The film features footage captured at the Gettysburg National Battlefield over the course of two years and offers Civil War Reenactment footage captured at events at the Norlands Living History Center in Livermore, 缅因州和葛底斯堡的丹尼尔夫人农场, 宾西法尼亚. 
 
Daniel Lambert has produced two previous films on Maine in the Civil War 葛底斯堡战役 (2012)和 希望渺茫 (2019) about the ill-fated charge of the 1st Maine Heavy Artillery Regiment at the 1864 Battle of Petersburg.

在他的演讲中加入当地的兴趣, 兰伯特邀请了大卫·苏林, a local Civil War history expert to answer questions pertaining to local Midcoast involvement in the Civil War.

“In the spirit of shared community events and educational goals for the Midcoast community, the 卡姆登-Rockport Historical Society is most appreciative of the library’s generous cooperation with our Winter Speaker Series, providing not only space but A-V technical support, staff liaison for community events and additional media advertising,CRHS说, 在新闻发布会上.
