Dr. Fonvielle
returned to his undergraduate alma mater at UNC-Wilmington
in 1996, where he now teaches courses on the Civil War,
Wilmington and the Lower Cape Fear, the Old South and
Antebellum America. He also teaches extended education
courses on the history of the Lower Cape Fear through
the university.
