Chris Mackowski, a familiar name to Civil War history students, was honored by the American Battlefield Trust in July for his work with history teachers. Mackowski is a professor at St Bonaventure University, the founder of Emerging Civil War, and the author of books on the Civil War. Here is info from the press arm of St. Bonaventure:
The trust recognized Mackowski with an Award for Outstanding Service at its Teacher Institute held July 21-24, 2022, in Mobile, Alabama.
“Chris has been a great partner for us for years,” said the trust’s Deputy Director of Education Kristopher D. White, a long-time collaborator with Mackowski, in presenting the award. “He goes above and beyond, and we appreciate everything he brings to the table for us — from his teacher workshops to his tours to his appearances in…our videos. If you’ve ever watched him, his passion shows through. You know he loves what he does, and we love what he does for us.”
