The Afterlives of Dick Dowling

This exhibit focuses on the changing ways that Lieutenant Richard W. "Dick" Dowling has been remembered since the American Civil War, particularly in the city of Houston. It was written and curated by undergraduate Rice students enrolled in the Spring 2011 course on "Public History and Civil War Memory" and the Fall 2011 course "The American Civil War Era," with editorial and research assistance by Professor Caleb McDaniel.
