About me:
..Welcome to the MySpace page of the General Lew Wallace Study and Museum.
The General Lew Wallace Study and Museum is a National Historic Landmark and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Its mission is to celebrate and renew belief in the power of the individual spirit to affect American history and culture.
The Museum is located on 3.5 beautiful wooded acres in Crawfordsville, Indiana, on the site where General Wallace wrote his masterwork, Ben-Hur. The General's personal Study has been lovingly preserved for over 100 years, containing original artifacts from every period of his life. His carriage house, also on the property, contains a state-of-the-art collection storage facility, an annually-changing exhibit space, rentable meeting space, a catering kitchen and a gift shop.
The General Lew Wallace Study and Museum is open 11 months a year from Wednesday to Sunday. We are located at 200 Wallace Avenue, Crawfordsville Indiana 47933. You can contact us at 765-362-5769 or online at study@ben-hur.com, or by leaving a comment or message on this site.

Our 2009 exhibit, Embattled: General Wallace's Leadership in the Civil War, will be on display in the Carriage House Interpretive Center from March 21 to December 13, 2009. Come experience the trials and triumphs of our nation's most notorious conflict through the eyes of Montgomery County's favorite son.
