As we celebrate Independence Day in July, take a moment to reflect on a pivotal turning point in the American Revolution—the “Ten Crucial Days” of 1776-77 at 6:30 pm on Thursday, July 17th at the Lawrence Headquarters Branch of the Mercer County Library System. Drawing from his book, Winning the Ten Crucial Days, historian David Price explores this decisive winter campaign, revealing how leadership, geography, weather, artillery, and contingency converged to secure General George Washington’s victory and alter the course of the Revolutionary War. Join us for this illuminating presentation and honor the triumph that helped shape a nation.
