BEV Talks: Wilmer McLean


Produced by Beverly Bridges

In this episode of BEV Talks, we examine an obscure figure of the American Civil War:  Wilmer McLean.  Back in the day (and I’m talking eighteen hundreds)  he used to tell folks that the Civil War started in his back yard and ended in his front parlor.  Fact or fiction?   Bob Bridges, Civil War lecturer and raconteur, gives us the scoop the way he’s been keeping audiences entertained and informed for decades.
