Jon Zachman gave a tour of the Greensboro Historical Museum’s exhibit “Through the Collectors' Eyes: Treasures of the Civil War.” The exhibit features more than 150 firearms that represent examples of work from every major Southern armory during the Civil War. Mr. Zachman showed some of the pieces in the collection and explained how academics from around the world continue to use the collection.

C-SPAN’s Local Content Vehicles (LCVs) made a stop in their “2015 LCV Cities Tour” in Greensboro, North Carolina, from January 19-22, to feature the history and literary life of the community. Working with the Time Warner Cable local affiliate, they visited literary and historic sites where local historians, authors, and civic leaders were interviewed. The history segments air on American History TV (AHTV) on C-SPAN3 and the literary events/non-fiction author segments air on BookTV on C-SPAN2. close
