Living Historians Provide a Wealth of Information
A majority of the Historic Fort Wayne Coalition membership is made up of folks who portray military and civilian figures of various time periods for leisure and hobby. As re-enactors, or "living historians," their interpretations of daily life during years past provide a living history lesson to interested students and groups. The educational wealth provided by re-enactors has not only proved beneficial for schools and historical parks such as Fort Wayne, but also contributes to the realism presented in historical motion picture documentaries and dramas such as Glory, The Last of the Mohicans, Gettysburg, and Gods and Generals. Re-enactors are proud of their educational value to the community, and are not reserved about presenting to any party interested in learning about history!
