Lunch & Learn: Duel at Dawn – Alexander Hamilton & Aaron Burr

Early in the morning on July 11, 1804 two men met on the dueling grounds of Weehawken, New Jersey. When the duel was over one man was dead, the other a fugitive. As school children we all learned about that fatal duel between Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr, but do we really know what went on? This lecture will go beyond the dueling grounds to the story behind the feud that led to the duel.

Speaker Hugh Boyle is the President and Executive Director of the Grand Army of the Republic Civil War Museum and Library, co-founder of the Delaware Valley Civil War Round Table, and wrote an essay for the book The Lincoln Assassination Riddle.

Join us for a continental breakfast, lecture on the duel between Hamilton & Burr, and a buffet lunch. Reservations required.
