Discussion Series: “American Revolutions: A Continental History, 1750–1804”

  • Blue Hill Public Library 5 Parker Point Road Blue Hill, Maine, 04614 United States (map)

The Blue Hill Library will host a discussion series with local retired teacher Bill Case on the book American Revolutions: A Continental History, 1750-1804, by Alan Taylor. The discussions will take place from 1:00-2:00 p.m. over three Tuesdays, June 30, July 14, and July 21, leading to the July 25 event with author Alan Taylor. The American Revolution is often portrayed as a high-minded, orderly event whose capstone, the Constitution, provided the nation its democratic framework. Alan Taylor, a two-time Pulitzer Prize winner, gives us a different creation story in this magisterial history. Bill Case is a retired high school and college history teacher with over fifty years of experience. In his career, Bill has taught U.S. History, AP U.S. History, Holocaust Studies, Public Policy and many other courses. This program is free and open to all, but space is limited, so registration is required and can be done at www.bhpl.net. Copies of the book will be available for checkout from the library. For more information contact Kayleigh at kayleigh.thomas@bhpl.net or 374-5515.
