Working at an American Revolutionary sight I do give the British versions of
events mixed in with American point of view. Is this anti American or anti
Patriotic? I think not, it is giving a broader perspective of what ocurred
and attendance has actually increased since I statrted there, Hopefully
because of my prsentations....next one by the way is May 28th..... Salem
County Tavern Life In the 18th Century ,,,,please come I need the
money...lol
