The Daland Memorial Library is hosting a program titled “Who Was John Stark”, by historian George Morrison. While many are familiar with the state motto “live free or die,” few might know about the man, General John Stark, who uttered these words. In this presentation, George Morrison reveals the man – a ransomed captive, Ranger officer, road-builder, lumberman, husband and father, repeatedly called-on to serve but often clashing with authority – whose phrase has become synonymous with our state.
Join us at the new library Saturday, June 20t at 11:00 am for this compelling presentation. Refreshments will be served.
