“Hold My Horse” is a true story about Civil War General Israel Richardson, who entered service at Fort Wayne. It's a short, light-hearted recounting showing true leadership, compassion, and more than a bit of ironic humor.
Only $3 to rent or $5 to buy. Proceeds benefit Historic Fort Wayne Coalition and Save Historic Antietam Foundation (where Richardson was mortally wounded).
