Valley Talks – History All Around Us
January 10, 2021 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Valley Talks, a series of biweekly historical lectures by the Museum of Work & Culture, kicks-off on January 10 with History All Around Us: King Philip’s War, a talk by National Park Ranger John McNiff.
Called the deadliest war in American history, King Philip’s War was fought right here in southern New England. Roads, landmarks, and businesses all mirror names from this war. But what was really happening? Why, after 2 or 3 generations of Native People and English living side by side did this war come about?
