with Natalie A. Naylor

Natalie A. Naylor, who taught Long Island and American social history for more than 30 years at Hofstra University and is a Long Island history scholar, will discuss the little-known role of Long Island women during the years of the American Revolution, shedding light on what life was like for women during the war and how they coped.
