Caught Between Three Fires: A Book Signing

January 19, 2011

On Saturday, February 12, 2011 at 2:00 p.m., Tom Rafiner will be at the Midwest Genealogy Center to present his findings on Order #11 and the effects it had on western Missouri’s citizens. Author Tom A. Rafiner will be discussing the research and records he used in his new book, Caught Between Three Fires: Cass County, MO., Chaos, & Order No. 11, 1860–1865. It took Mr. Rafiner six years to research and write this book, which concentrates on the plight of civilians during this cruel war. This presentation is the beginning of Mid-Continent Public Library’s recognition of the Sesquicentennial of the Civil War years, 1861–1865. Look for more special presentations throughout the next four years.
