SUMMARY:VA250 Book Series: Magic Changes and Immense Difficulties: Lafayette's Return and the Revolution in Reflection
DESCRIPTION:What did the Revolution look like in the rear-view mirror for the founding generation? And what did the future hold for the young nation? Author Ryan L. Cole joins us on October 28 from 4:30 to 5:30 PM in conversation about his book The Last Adieu\, which recounts the summer of 1824\, when the aging Marquis de Lafayette returned to America for the first time in forty years. Once a young general in the Revolution\, he now found a vastly changed nation—twenty-four states strong\, thriving yet divided\, and facing new political storms. \nExperience this moment of transition through the eyes of Lafayette–and of ordinary Americans–as they witnessed elderly founding fathers\, rising politicians\, and reformers shaping the nation’s future. \nAttendees will have the opportunity to purchase The Last Adieu and have their copy signed by the author after the program. This event is free and open to the public as part of Highland’s celebration of America’s 250th. Registration is requested at the link below: \n Register Today!\n

SUMMARY:Book Talk: Inventing the Presidency: How America Created Its Most Powerful Office
DESCRIPTION:Why did the Founders create a President instead of a king? How did their experiences under British rule shape an office unlike any executive the world had known? \nOn Wednesday\, February 24\, at 4:30 PM Highland will welcome law professor Peter C. Cohen for a Presidents Day conversation on the origins of the American presidency and how the office has evolved over time. From George Washington and James Monroe to the presidents of the 20th century to today\, Cohen explores the shaping of the presidency and the enduring tension between the need for energetic executive leadership and the dangers of concentrating too much power in one person. \nThis program is free and open to the public\, but registration is requested using the link below: \n Register Today!
