Upcoming Baltimore County Historical Society April Event


Introduction to Baltimore County in the War of 1812

Saturday, April 30, 2011, 2:00 p.m. at North Point State Park

Two authorities on Baltimore's role during the War of 1812, author and historian Christopher George as well as independent historian Robert Reyes, will address that topic during a one hour program in preparation for Baltimore County's bicentennial celebration of that war in 2012. George, author of Terror on the Chesapeake: The War of 1812 on the Bay, and co-editor of the Journal of the War of 1812, has spoken widely regarding the topic while Reyes has researched the role of North Point and its inhabitants during the war. Together, their program will certainly prove to be a memorable kick-off to the region's kickoff for the bicentennial. Free admission to the presentation and North Point State Park for those attending.
