Marking the 200th anniversary of the Marquise de Lafayette’s visit to the Berkshires, New York Times-bestselling author Sarah Vowell joins us for a conversation. Vowell’s book, Lafayette in the Somewhat United States, explores the patriot founders’ alliance with France as personified by the teenage volunteer in George Washington’s army, the Marquis de Lafayette. This talk is co-sponsored by OLLI, the Upper Housatonic Valley National Heritage Area, and the Berkshire County Historical Society. This talk is part of the Berkshires250 and Lafayette200 programming for OLLI and Berkshire County.
