George Washington: In High Spirits
George Washington: In High Spirits
250 years ago in June 1775 George Washington was appointed Commander-in-Chief of the Continental Army. Gen. Washington’s first stop following his appointment was the tavern, setting to work organizing the new army’s affairs. Join George Washington in the historic Dutch barn of Flounder Brewing Co. for a discussion of the spirits of his age. Topics will include Gen. Washington’s foray into the commercial distilling of whiskey and corn liquor and experiments with viniculture and home brewing. Hear about Gen. Washington’s favorite wines, champagnes, and other beverages and enjoy anecdotes about some of his favorite watering holes in New Jersey and Philadelphia, New York, Virginia and other points in between. David Emerson of History on the Hoof portrays George Washington in this living history program. Children and adults are invited to color or write cards of appreciation to veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces for delivery to New Jersey Veterans Memorial Homes in honor of the 250th Birthday of the U.S. Army & Armed Forces. The Wallace House and Old Dutch Parsonage Association, Proud Partner of Revolution NJ, sponsor this program with funding from the Somerset County Cultural & Heritage Commission as part of the Somerset County Docent Training Program.

Wreck of the Broker
Wreck of the Broker
On the drizzly evening of February 6, 1951, the Pennsylvania Railroad commuter train known as “The Broker” derailed in Woodbridge, New Jersey, killing 85 and injuring hundreds in what remains the deadliest railroad accident in the state’s history and among the top five in the United States. What happened is reasonably well-understood. The Broker hit a temporary track around a New Jersey Turnpike construction site going between 50- and 65-miles-per-hour, though the speed limit was set at 25. Why it happened, however, is an area of controversy that few (if any) histories have fully explored. While the role of speed is generally accepted, why the otherwise experienced and skilled engineer failed to properly observe the speed restriction drew attention at the time to systemic issues within the Pennsylvania Railroad itself and seemed to reflect what many had come to believe about the industry as a whole. Author Gordon Bond will be presenting his research on this tragic and relatively recent piece of history. He is an independent historian, author, and lecturer. His website, www.GardenStateLegacy.com, offers free resources for the New Jersey history community, including a speaker’s bureau and online museum. Mr. Bond has written an in-depth book titled “MAN FAILURE:
