Revolutionary Stories

Wednesday, March 11, 7:00 - 8:30 PM, at the Depot

All around us, history is hidden in plain sight - not just in museum collections, but in buildings, landscapes, and letters hidden in dusty attics. Lexington History Museums recently endeavored to tell a selection of stories of the Battle of Lexington through unexpected means, resulting in our unique guidebook Revolutionary Stories: The Tales Behind What To See In Lexington! Join some of our local historian book contributors to hear some of the tales we uncovered, from musketballs pried from centuries-old battlefields, to the correspondence of the British military command, and learn more about how historians use primary sources to humanize history and combat misinformation.

Free!
