The Civil Warriors Round Table will hold its
next meeting of 2020 at 7PM on Wednesday,
February 12th, at Weilers Deli in West Hills,
CA. We will be hosting a presentation by
Michael Oddenino of the Pasadena CWRT on
“The Peninsula Campaign: Barbarians at the
Gates.”
Mr. Oddenino’s presentation will explore the
famous Peninsula Campaign of 1862 which saw
George McClellan go head-to-head with Robert E.
Lee. The massive Union effort to get troops to the
Virginia peninsula between the York and James
rivers is one of the true turning points of the Civil
War.
This will be a chance to learn about:
Abraham Lincoln’s interactions with
George McClellan.
The connection of the Emancipation
Proclamation and the Peninsula Campaign
How Robert E. Lee came to head the Army
of Northern Virginia for the Confederacy
Why McClellan failed.
Robert E. Lee’s performance.
JEB Stuart’s famous ride.
Don’t miss this opportunity to learn about a
crucial campaign and the facts behind that
campaign.
Michael L. Oddenino, a native of northern
Virginia, practices law in the Los Angeles area.
Michael is the Program Chair for the Pasadena
CWRT and a regular speaker on Civil War topics.
He has spoken several times to the Civil Warriors
on diverse topics such as the Lincoln-Douglas
debates, the Dred Scott decision, the Battle of
Ball’s Bluff and the Gettysburg Address.
As always, come join us before the program starts.
Our members start assembling around 6PM for
refreshments like the Weilers deli sandwich
dinner and for the camaraderie of their fellow
Civil Warriors. Meeting attendance is $5 which
includes soft drinks, cookies and an entry in our
book drawing. The sandwich dinner is $18 which

Weilers side dishes. If you wish to partake of the
