Reschedule, Salem and Marblehead on the Eve of the Revolution

Renowned museum director, tour guide, and historian Robert Booth ‘73, author of Death of an Empire: The Rise and Murderous Fall of Salem, America's Richest City; Mad for Glory: A Heart of Darkness in the War of 1812; The Women of Marblehead; and other works, will contrast the conditions and life on the ground in Salem and Marblehead in the fraught period leading up to the American Revolution—and weave in stories of some local Harvard men of the day. Come to hear this entertaining speaker (and enjoy the Hawthorne’s fabulous hors d’oeuvres and a cash bar).
