Since 2013 the National World War I Museum and Memorial has held a symposium in the first weekend in November. This is an excellent way to learn more about the war; I will recommend it for the speakers that they bring in.
2016 Symposium, “1916: Total War,” is on November 4-5, and we’ll make this post now because the early bird registration for it is due October 1, a chance for you to save a little money. Click here for more info.
