“Brilliant, fascinating, timely . . . With compelling narratives of past eras of strife and disenchantment, Meacham offers wisdom for our own time.”—Walter Isaacson
“Meacham gives readers a long-term perspective on American history and a reason to believe the soul of America is ultimately one of kindness and caring, not rancor and paranoia.”—USA Today
This program is part of the First Principles series of collaborative programming offered in partnership with the Library, Keeler Tavern Museum and History Center, Ridgefield Historical Society, League of Women Voters of Ridgefield, and the Drum Hill Chapter of the DAR.
