This week I was contacted by our friends at the Civil War Preservation Trust in reference to a photograph that I had taken several years ago. In 2008, I won second place in the CWPT’s photography contest for their Battlefield Threat category. The CWPT is currently developing a Civil War curriculum and creating a two minute film about battlefield preservation. My image, Modern "Raid" will be included. The film, as part of their curriculum, will be available on the CWPT’s website for free download to all, but specifically K12 teachers. They are also going to sell the complete curriculum in print & CD form (28 lesson plans with associated worksheets, PowerPoints, and exams) at cost to teachers who wish to have a hard copy. I am honored to have my image used in what promises to be an extraordinary teaching aid. Who better to educate the public about the importance of battlefields than the CWPT.
AND speaking of films…we are just days away from releasing our DVD. Stay tuned!
