The streets of Chestertown’s waterfront district were alive with colonial spirit December 8 during the Holiday House Tour. The tour benefited two local schools and included three College properties: Hynson-Ringgold House, the Custom House, and the Patrick Henry House. First Lady Elisabeth Reiss was one of the chief organizers of the event.
For the second installment of the Chestertown Book Festival, Adam Goodheart, author of 1861: The Civil War Awakening and Richard Ben Cramer, author of What It Takes: The Way to the White House, discussed their books, the writing and research process, and their views on history.
