Watch Stephen Recker's C-Span 3 Lecture on Photographs of Antietam Battlefield
It was a real thrill when Nicolas Picerno hooked me up to give a lecture in his beautiful museum that was filmed for broadcast on C-Span. To hear the intro in that classic C-SPAN voice is priceless to me. It makes me feel like I've made it!
Their description: Stephen Recker is creator of the book, Rare Images of Antietam - And the Photographers Who Took Them. Mr. Recker talked about how he became interested in collecting photographs of the Antietam battlefield, and shared stories of some of the rare and previously unseen images he discovered in his research.
