The History Center and The Yorktowne Hotel are partnering as hosts for this year’s Pennsylvania Historical Association Annual Conference. The conference runs Oct. 9-11, with programs at both locations. Due to the conference’s schedule those days, the History Center’s Library and Archives will be closed Friday, Oct. 10, and Saturday, Oct. 11.
Due to his love of history Michael Maloney started writing books. His latest book Rattlesnake Colonel: Thomas Cresap An American Paradox will be the focus of our Second Saturday program in May. Rattlesnake Colonel covers the contradictory and often controversial life of Thomas Cresap.
