TRAVEL HISTORY: THE LINCOLN HIGHWAY NEW
Thursday, Oct. 10, 1—2 p.m.
Member John Jackson will present the story of the Lincoln Highway’s formation in 1913, taking us through the gigantic effort over the ensuing fifteen years to open a practical coast to coast motorway from New York City to San Francisco with little assistance from the federal government. It’s a route that is still drivable a hundred years later attracting motorists to experience the feel of bygone driving conditions. John Jackson is an author and transportation consultant who has held many senior positions in logistics management for private enterprises. He joined The Lincoln Highway Association in 2009 and has led efforts to better publicize the story of this crucial but little-known part of our national transportation picture.
AGATHA CHRISTIE NEW
Wednesday, Oct. 16, 1—2:15 p.m.
Member Sylvia Zimmerman will share Agatha Christie’s life and mysteries while in costume. Currently Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple charm us on Sunday evenings. Christie’s mystery, The Mousetrap, still plays in London theaters. Sylvia will share information from her autobiography including her riches, mysteries and glimpses into Victorian times and war-torn England. Her attraction even today lies within her character—quiet, unassuming, courageous, given to humor, good food and great homes; she owned eight at one time. She is a woman worth knowing beyond her writings. Sylvia captures a bit of Christie’s uniqueness as she highlights the many nooks and crannies of Agatha’s life—the pint of Devonshire cream she drank every day of her early life, her second marriage to a man some 20 years plus her junior, and more.
PRESIDENTIAL POLICIES NEW
Thursday, Oct. 17, 1—2:15 p.m.
