You are invited to hear a special speaker this coming Sunday, Barbara Berenson, who will give a lively presentation about a subject with which many are not familiar.  As an historian, as well as a lawyer and author, Berenson will discuss her new book addressing the role of the Greater Boston abolitionists in fomenting the second revolution that changed our nation forever.

Following the talk home baked items and other refreshments will be offered. Copies of her book will also be available for sale and for signing.  Boston and the Civil War: Hub of the Second Revolution.
