SUMMARY:Second Saturday - June
DESCRIPTION:We are excited to welcome author and historian Dr. Emily Sneff to the History Center Museum! She will be presenting about her book “When the Declaration of Independence Was News.” Dr. Sneff is an early American historian and leading expert on the Declaration of Independence. She earned her Ph.D. in history from William & Mary. She is a consulting curator for exhibitions marking the 250th anniversary of the Declaration at the Museum of the American Revolution and Historic Trappe. \nBlurb of the Book: \nPublishing for the 250th anniversary of the United States\, When the Declaration of Independence Was News focuses on the nation’s founding document at the moment of its creation in 1776\, before anyone knew what the legacy of the Declaration would be or if the United States would win the war against Great Britain. It explores how the Declaration was communicated to people in the new nation and around the Atlantic world and reveals the stories of the many people involved in the process of declaring independence\, from printers to soldiers to diplomats to translators. \nPurchase a copy of her book here.

SUMMARY:Second Saturday - August
DESCRIPTION:We are excited to welcome authors Michael Shupp and Scott Mingus on August 8th to speak about “Fearless Sons of War” The 200th Pennsylvania Volunteers in the Civil War.\n\nAbout the Book:\nIn the summer of 1864\, President Abraham Lincoln called for 500\,000 men to join the Union Army to replenish ranks depleted by disease and combat. The 200th Pennsylvania Volunteers was among the infantry regiments raised in response to this call to arms. Serving for a term of one year\, the Keystoners received initial training at Camp Curtin in Harrisburg and then were transported to Virginia\, where they saw their initial action along the Bermuda Hundred Line. The 200th suffered its worst loss in the fighting to retake Fort Stedman during the Siege of Petersburg in March 1865\, losing more than 100 men in a 20-minute stand-up firefight with the Confederate attackers. The fifth color bearer of the day planted the flag on the rampart of Fort Stedman as the regiment helped recapture the earthworks from the Confederates. The 200th Pennsylvania assisted in the capture of Confederate Fort Mahone on April 2\, 1865\, and then helped repulse multiple counterattacks.
