Join us at Todd’s Inheritance for our first event of 2026 with our Guest Lecturer Bob Crickenberger who will speak on his new book Point Lookout, Maryland: The Largest Civil War Prison. Bob has spent many years researching and exploring the history of Point Lookout, originally dubbed Camp Hoffman. It was a 45-acre compound on Maryland’s Chesapeake Bay. It opened just after Gettysburg and soon became the largest Prisoner-of-War camp during the nation’s greatest internal upheaval. Bob will be selling and signing his books for guests interested after the lecture.
