Saturday, March 22nd: Author Andrew Noone: Bathsheba Spooner, Revolutionary Muder Conspiracy 2 PM 37 Wheeler Rd Grafton Community Harvest Barn

Andrew Noone brings to life a murder and scandal that shook New England and reverberated for decades to come. This meticulously researched, elegantly told tale transports you back to the time of the nation’s founding, and the volatile mix of cultural, economic and political forces that clashed during that critical era. It’s a story about love and money, power and privilege, crime and eventually the ultimate punishment. Bathsheba Spooner paints a picture of what life was really like back in the eighteenth century, during the transition from colonial life to independence, by focusing on the travails of a storied family, a wealthy couple, and a group of soldiers whose lives intersected.
