The Bidwell House Museum is excited to present the first of three talks in our 4th annual Zoom lecture series. For the first talk, we will be joined by Simon Middleton who will present From Bubbles to Revolutions: changing conceptions of money in England, France, and America, 1690-1781. This first lecture will be followed by two more in April about the art of first person historical interpretation and the factors in 1775 that led to the American war for Independence. In this lecture, Middleton considers changing attitudes towards money; along with the social and political consequences of those attitudes after the South Sea and Mississippi Bubbles up through the American Revolution.
