Events Program: Breeding Radicals in Vermont

Date

This event has no more occurrences

In the 21st century, Vermont has the reputation of being a pastoral paradise — a place where people come to get away from the hectic pace and tensions that appear to plague so many other parts of the country. While Vermont may appear bucolic and peaceful now, at one time it was a hotbed of dissent.

In this lecture, historian Philip Crossman will discuss the cultural, religious, political, and personal conflicts that were commonplace in Vermont’s early years, and the lasting impact of this turmoil in Vermont and elsewhere.

Program will be held at the Woodstock History Center’s John Cotton Dana Library, located at 26 Elm Street.
