In A WALK AMONG HEROES: Searching for America’s Better Angels Zelinski sheds light on how this hallowed ground and those buried there—privates beside colonels, surgeons and nurses bedside the troops they tried to save, the descendants of slaves beside Confederate soldiers, and wives, sons, and daughters beside loved ones who made the ultimate sacrifice—serves as a lens into what is good in our country. Gary B. Zelinski will share and discuss the inspiring stories behind the headstones.                                                                     ABOUT GARY B.
