The October meeting of the Golden Triangle Civil War Roundtable will be held this Tuesday, at the Golden Triangle Planning and Development Center, 106 Miley Drive in Starkville. A social time will begin at 6 p.m., followed by the program at 6:30 p.m.

This month’s program will feature a discussion of “The Memoirs of William Tecumseh Sherman: The Complete Annotated Edition” (Harvard University Press, 2025), edited by Roundtable member and Civil War historian John Marszalek, along with editors Louie Gallo and David Nolen.

Marszalek taught American and Civil War history at Mississippi State University for nearly 30 years and has published more than 17 books, including one that inspired the 1995 Showtime movie “Assault at West Point.” In 2008, he took over publication of the Ulysses S. Grant Papers and later became director of the Ulysses S. Grant Presidential Library at MSU, a position he held until his retirement in 2022.

Gallo is the managing editor of the Ulysses S. Grant Presidential Library. In addition to co-editing Sherman’s memoirs, he co-edited “The Personal Memoirs of Ulysses S. Grant: The Complete Annotated Edition” (Harvard University Press, 2017), co-authored “Hold On With a Bulldog Grip: A Short Study of Ulysses S. Grant” (University Press of Mississippi, 2019), and contributed a chapter on Julia D. Grant in “Southern First Ladies” (2020).

Nolen, associate dean for archives and special collections at MSU Libraries, has worked at the university since 2008. Along with Marszalek and Gallo, he co-edited “The Personal Memoirs of Ulysses S. Grant” and “The Memoirs of William Tecumseh Sherman.” He also co-authored “Hold On With a Bulldog Grip.”

Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of General William Tecumseh Sherman. A raffle will be held for a copy of “The Memoirs of William Tecumseh Sherman: The Complete Annotated Edition.”
