Land speculator, revolutionary, pamphleteer, politician, and empire-builder, Ira Allen was a key figure on the late eighteenth-century Green Mountain frontier.
Based on his new book Ira Allen: A Biography, J. Kevin Graffagnino's talk evaluates Allen's checkered career and makes the case for including him in our picture of Vermont's formative decades.
Sunday, January 12, at 1:00 p.m. at the Leach Public Library (130 Park Ave., Irasburg, VT 05845) This event is supported in part by Vermont Humanities.
