South Conway resident William Marvel is a historian who's written several books on the Civil War. His latest,? Lee?s Last Retreat," is a new look at how the war ended. He says a lot of myths have grown up around the Civil War. He tries to find the truth by going back to original material written at the time.

Also, conversation with Sotheby's about the pre-Civil war soldier paraphernalia from New Hampshire that's up for auction this weekend. http://www.sothebys.com
