SUMMARY:The Reverend and the Old North Bridge Battle
DESCRIPTION:Reenactor Henry Cooke will portray the life and preaching of a significant Concord resident\, the Rev. William Emerson\, during the weeks leading up to the battle at the Old North Bridge and his experiences on the day itself.  \nHe will interpret Rev. Emerson’s artillery sermon on Muster Day on March 17\, 1775\, which presages the outbreak of hostilities a month later\, and included this charge: “let every single step we take in this most intricate affair be upon the defensive….

SUMMARY:The Truth About Baked Beans: An Edible History of New England
DESCRIPTION:Meg Muckenhoupt will bring smiles—and a hunger for popular foods—during her discussion about the history of New England’s food\, immigration\, tourism\, and how ideas about identity have shaped our menus from 1825 to today. \nAuthor of “The Truth about Baked Beans: An Edible History of New England\,” Muckenhoupt’s book began with a simple question: When did Bostonians start putting molasses in their baked beans? That question sent her on a lengthy journey through invented histories\, selective memories\, and changing tastes from colonial New England to the present day. \nHer presentation will cap the Society’s Annual Meeting\, including elections of Directors and reports from Society officers. \nDoors open at 2 PM for a social period and refreshments\n2:15 PM – Announcements and Annual Meeting\, followed by the Guest Speaker
