2nd Sunday Lecture Series: “George Washington’s Sense of Humor”
George Washington is remembered as a strong leader but is usually thought to be stoic and emotionless. He had quite a temper as well as a genuine sense of humor. Dr. Martin will discuss how Washington’s image as a “marble man” was created and came to be accepted.
This program will be presented by award-winning author and Friends of Monmouth Battlefield President, Dr. David Martin. Dr. Martin is the author of over 20 books on the Revolutionary War and Civil War, including two award-winning books on Gettysburg. He is also the author of “A Molly Pitcher Sourcebook” (2003).
