Today at Noon: TRAITORS IN WHEELING
Well it looks as though we fell well short of our goal for the Matthew Algeo program. So we must congratulate Kansas City. Still, 79 people for a program on Grover Cleveland on a Tuesday afternoon is not all bad! Many thanks to those who attended and especially to those who donated to West Virginia Tornado Relief. -Sean
UP NEXT: On Tuesday, June 14 at noon at Lunch With Books at the Ohio County Public Library, WVU history professor Dr. Ken Fones-Wolf will present, “Traitors in Wheeling: Secessionism in an Appalachian Unionist City,” an overview of Wheeling’s prominent secessionists like William Goshorn and Daniel Steenrod, based on research Dr. Fones-Wolf presented in the Journal of Appalachian Studies in 2007. Lunch With Books programs are free and open to the public. Patrons are invited to bring a bag lunch and free beverages are provided. Please call the library at 304-232-0244 for more information.
