The Bitter Farewell: The Esopus and the Revolutionary War
Advertisement
The American Revolution was a time of major upheaval for Native communities in the Hudson Valley. The destruction of war would ultimately force them out of their ancestral homelands. This presentation by ethnoecologist Justin Wexler will tell the dramatic story of the Catskill Mountains' Esopus Indian residents and their neighbors during this turbulent period by weaving together an array of archival sources and little-known oral histories.

PLEASE NOTE: The Thursday Night Speaker Series is Proudly Sponsored by the Fort Montgomery Battle Site Association. Seating is by reservation only.
REGISTRATION REQUIRED: Call (845) 446-2134 to Register. Suggested Donation: $5, FMBSA Members $3
