In anticipation of Matthew Edney’s lecture at 2 PM at the Museum, Polly Kienle, Public Programs Coordinator, will lead this gallery talk focused on Revolutionary War-era maps from the Museum’s collection.

While London mapmakers published views of the American colonies and towns where British soldiers and colonists fought for territory, other maps of North America reflected power struggles between European nations as well as Native American nations’ lessening influence on the continent.

The talk will be presented in the exhibition Journeys and Discoveries: The Stories Maps Tell.
