dc.description"Over the course of the past two years, we've periodically shared these RHS-Essays: more extended reflections that write their way into the concerns and curiosities of Public History. Beyond notice of our RHS Programs and partner promotions, these articles reflect on relevant themes, distinct anniversaries, unique and sometimes surprising people and social patterns that shape Rockbridge history. In framing a diverse range of topics, they've explored the interconnections of Nature and History; examined the evolution of American icnics and Rockbridge flags; reflected on the shifting history of Memorial Days, the origins of Interntional Women's Day, as well as the wartime conclusions witnessed by Juneteenth, the World War I Armistice Centennial."en_US
