This Day In History, Nov 23

Picture taken from Lookout Moutailn


1863 Battle of Chattanooga began (Civil War).  You could spend months going around to all the fightings sites of Chattanooga and the Dalton area that you had read about and still miss a few skirmishes.



1888 Harpo Marx [Adolph] NYC, actor/comedian (Marx brothers) was born.  I loved to watch Harpo in the Marx Brothers movies; he was a supreme mime, a musician, a jazz dancer, and an anarchist who threw pies in the faces of people of authority.  Wow!
