#Americans are no slouch in this matter. #AmericanRevolution started & ended, with declaration of independence and all, before the French even got started.

The French did invent the #guillotine though. What will Americans invent?

Abigail Adams’ 1776 “remember the ladies” letter sits at a turning point in how marriage was understood, as ideas shifted from Enlightenment coverture toward companionate marriage. Historians now read the letter less as a call for suffrage and more as a plea for women’s legal protection within marriage. #History #AbigailAdams #WomensHistory #MarriageHistory #AmericanRevolution 🎧 https://www.smithsonianmag.com/podcast/series/theres-more-to-that/season-2/real-story-behind-abigail-adams-remember-ladies-letter/

I worry sometimes that young people might not be interested in history. That certainly wasn’t the case yesterday, when I talked about my book at Nipissing University in North Bay, ON.

Three organizations — Canadian International Council, Nipissing district branch; the history department at the university; and the Village at Canadore College — combined forces to organize a fun event with lots of good questions.

Special thanks to John Allison, Micheline Demers, and Nate Kozuskanich for making it happen.
