This year’s annual meeting of the American Association for State and Local History is in Richmond, Virginia — within driving distance for much of the Mid-Atlantic region. But if you can’t make the trip, portions of the Sept. 14-17 conference also will be available online to individuals and groups, for less than the price of full conference registration. For information, visit http://www.aaslh.org/online2011.htm. If you are in Richmond, please join us Saturday morning for the MARCH-organized session, “The Bicentennial Impact,” where we will look to 1976 for lessons that may apply to current commemorations of the Civil War.
