Description of Pictures: The Eisenhower Institute of Gettysburg College cordially invites you to an Author Series Event featuring Jean Edward Smith and his newest book: Eisenhower in War and Peace
Jean Edward Smith, deemed "today’s foremost biographer of formidable figures in American history" by journalist George Will, makes the case that, with the exception of FDR (the subject of Smith’s last best-selling biography), Dwight Eisenhower was the most successful president of the twentieth century.
The event will include a brief reception with light fare and refreshments, followed by Smith's lecture with an introduction by Susan Eisenhower, a question and answer session, and a book signing.

Description of Subject Matter: The Eisenhower Institute is a distinguished center for leadership and public policy based in Washington, D.C. and in Gettysburg, PA. Honoring the legacy of Dwight D. Eisenhower, The Eisenhower Institute prepares the successor generations to perfect the promise of the nation through engagement in distinctive programs of leadership and public policy.
A program of Gettysburg College, the Institute is a non-partisan, non-profit, presidential legacy organization that develops and sponsors civic discourse on significant issues of domestic and international public policy. Its activities include research and scholarship, education and outreach, and recognition and celebration. We strive to embody Eisenhower's model of public policy formation and leadership, and our programs encourage greater understanding of our core governmental institutions, bridging the perspectives of scholars, policy-makers, students, and citizens.
With offices in the heart of the nation's capital and in an historic home in Gettysburg once occupied by Dwight and Mamie Eisenhower, the Institute provides both top-level dialogue among policy-makers and a premier learning experience for undergraduates-by carefully blending the two.
The Institute is governed by a board of directors and has both a campus advisory council and a public advisory board. Among the programs of the EI are:
Public Policy Programs:
The Institute's public policy programs have a strong history in our nation's capital. With President Eisenhower as its model, the Institute pursues a domestic and international policy agenda driven by the rigorous pursuit of facts, respectful dialogue among stakeholders, and a focus on the future. Policy themes based on these objectives are chosen on a multi-year basis. Programming events include Washington roundtables, author events, lectures, policy discussions on Capitol Hill, and frequent outreach publications. Programs are offered on campus in Gettysburg and in Washington. Transportatio ...More...

2012 photos: Equipment this year: My mainstays were the Fuji S100fs, Nikon D7000, and the new Fuji X-S1. I also used an underwater Fuji XP50 and a Nikon D600. The first three cameras all broke this year and had to be repaired.
Trips this year:
three Civil War Trust conferences (Shepherdstown, WV, Richmond, VA, and Williamsburg, VA),
a week-long family reunion cruise of the Caribbean,
another week-long family reunion in the Wisconsin Dells (with lots of in-transit time in Ohio and Indiana), and
my 7th consecutive San Diego Comic-Con trip (including side trips to Zion, Bryce, the Grand Canyon, etc).
Ego strokes: I had a picture of Miss DC, Ashley Boalch, published in the Washington Post. I had a photograph of the George Segal San Francisco Holocaust memorial used as the cover of Quebec Francais (issue 165). Not being able to read French, I'm not entirely sure what the article is about but, hey! And I guess what could be considered to be a positive thing, my site is now established enough that spammers have noticed it and I had to block 17,000 file description postings for Viagra and whatever else..
Number of photos taken this year: just below 410,000.
