Last call for Fort Plain Museum’s 2017 American Revolution Conference! The sign-up deadline has been extended to Tuesday, June 6.
It was a busy month so here is a quick recap. In May, we welcomed more than 75,000 unique readers and two new writers: Aaron J. Palmer and Kyle Dalton. Our 2017 collectible hardcover and our newest JAR book series book—Invasion of Virginia, 1781 by Michael Cecere—make great Father’s Day gifts and support JAR efforts. Our newest advertiser, author Martin R. Ganzglass, is promoting his exciting new novel, Spies and Deserters, which depicts real life experiences during the Revolutionary War. Lastly, we published many fascinating essays last month. Here’s the 10 most popular:
- The South Carolina backcountry in mid 1780 by Ian Saberton
