Adults are invited to join the Library for this Munch & Learn session.
The National Road is the first narrative history of the federal project—begun decades before the nation itself was born and ranging through the 1830s—that connected the United States across the Alleghenies and into the western frontier. Starting with a young Washington’s dream of uniting the Potomac and Ohio Rivers, historian Brady J. Crytzer traces the political rivalries and engineering marvels that created an artery bringing settlers, ideas, and commerce deep into the American interior.
“America’s first great national project. . . . A fine reminder that a revolution first united our nation, but roads kept it united.”
—Kirkus Reviews
