SUMMARY:History Revealed: Tracing Teddy Roosevelt
DESCRIPTION:Special Event \nJames Blase\, Tracing TR’s 1903 Train Trip Tour: Commemorating the 100th Anniversary of Theodore Roosevelt’s Death in 1919\nHistory Revealed Series\nJuly 14\nSunday\, 2:30-4:00 pm\nLandmark Center\n\nPresentation & Book Signing: Keep it for Your Children: Theodore Roosevelt’s 1903 Western Trip\nReservations requested – see the page here or call the office at 651-222-0701. Free and open to all. \nJoin RCHS for History Revealed\, our program series featuring presentations and tours from the best of local historians\, authors and archaeologists\, with a wide range of topics drawn from the heritage and traditions of Ramsey County. \nAs part of his “Tracing TR’s 1903 Train Trip Tour\,” author James Blase will be presenting the history of Teddy Roosevelt’s train trip throughout the country in the spring of 1903\, one that culminated in a stop at the Grand Canyon. Blase’s new book\, Keep it for Your Children: Theodore Roosevelt’s 1903 Western Trip\, creates a first-person journal of a 66-day western train trip the President made during his first term in office\, in 1903 – a year after the Landmark Center first opened its doors. The train trip included a stop in Saint Paul\, where Theodore Roosevelt arrived by train at 2:30 pm on April 4\, 1903\, and where the President spoke to a crowd estimated at approximately 50\,000 outside the Cedar Street side of the State Capitol. Late in the afternoon the President travelled to Minneapolis\, where he attended a banquet and made a speech at the Nicolette Hotel. \nJim Blase’s presentation\, complete with photos\, will cover the entire 66-day trip\, but he will be emphasizing the President’s stops in Saint Paul and Minneapolis. The presentation is being made in conjunction with a two-week Amtrak western “loop tour” train trip Jim Blase will be making\, beginning in St Louis Missouri (the “Gateway to the West”) on July 1\, and continuing through New Mexico\, the Grand Canyon\, Southern California\, Oregon\, Montana\, North Dakota and Minnesota\, culminating back in St. Louis. The tour’s route mirrors much of the President’s in 1903. \n \nSigned copies of Keep it for Your Children: Theodore Roosevelt’s 1903 Western Trip\, Blase’s 390-page book\, the title of which derives from the President’s May 6\, 1903 speech at the Grand Canyon\, will be available at a discounted price. \nReservations requested – see the page here or call the RCHS office at 651-222-0701.

SUMMARY:History Revealed: Downtown St. Paul
DESCRIPTION:Ramsey County Historical Society Presents\nHistory Revealed: A Toast to History at Waldmann Brewery & Wurstery\n\n\n\nIrik Nathanson: Downtown St. Paul\nThursday\, April 11\, 2019\n7:45 pm (note new time)\nFree and open to all. \nJoin RCHS for History Revealed\, our program series featuring presentations and tours from the best of local historians\, authors and archaeologists\, with a wide range of topics drawn from the heritage and traditions of Ramsey County. \n\nMinnesota’s capital city was given a lofty identity when young Catholic priest Lucien Gaultier built a modest log chapel in a wilderness clearing and named it for his patron saint. St. Paul’s modern downtown would later take shape at this very site. In the mid-19th century\, St. Paul’s strategic location at the head of navigation on the Mississippi River was naturally suited as a way station for goods and a hub for settlers pouring into the Upper Midwest. While St. Paul had to relinquish its ranking as Minnesota’s largest city to its twin\, Minneapolis\, the city remains at the center of state politics as Minnesota’s state capital. Following World War II\, a suburban boom weakened the business district\, and downtown St. Paul fell into decline. Over the last 40 years\, however\, St. Paul’s downtown has been reinvented as a major sports\, entertainment\, and cultural center. \nIric Nathanson tells the story of this resilient urban district\, stretching over two centuries\, using images from local archives like the Minnesota Historical Society and the Hennepin County Public Library Special Collections. Nathanson’s most recent work includes The Minneapolis Riverfront and Downtown Minneapolis\, both in the Image of America series. \n\nRegistration is needed to attend presentations. Space is limited\, first-come\, first served.\nPresentation is free.\nRegistration requested. Registration form\nOr call 651-222-0701 or email membership@rchs.com. \nIt’s RCHS Day at Waldmann Brewery & Wurstery!\nOn the second Thursday of each month\, 10% of all sales to RCHS members and their guests will be donated to the Ramsey County Historical Society! \nRCHS members and supporters are encouraged to come and enjoy a lunch/dinner/drink at Waldmann throughout the day\, or time your dinner so that you can stay for the presentation immediately after. So come on in and raise a toast to history and support RCHS! \nMention that you are a member\, supporter or friend of RCHS to your server\, and they will make sure that your tab is counted toward Waldmann’s support. \n \n2019 History Revealed Programs\nFor 2019 History Revealed programs\, see https://www.rchs.com/news/history-revealed-2019/ New programs are being added.

SUMMARY:History Revealed: Wild & Rare
DESCRIPTION:Ramsey County Historical Society Presents\nAdam Regn Arvidson\, Wild & Rare: Tracking Endangered Species in the Upper Midwest\n\nHistory Revealed Series\nJune 11\, 2019\n6:00 pm: Prairie Tour\n7:00 pm: Presentation & Book Signing\nGibbs Farm\nFree and open to all. No reservations needed. \nJoin us prior to the presentation to tour our restored native prairie! \nJoin RCHS for History Revealed\, our program series featuring presentations and tours from the best of local historians\, authors and archaeologists\, with a wide range of topics drawn from the heritage and traditions of Ramsey County. \nCompelling stories of Minnesota’s endangered species\, the landscapes that nurture them\, and the people who are discovering their secrets.What can endangered species tell us about our part of the world? What can they tell us about us? The elusive Canada lynx bears kittens in Minnesota’s northeastern woods. In the far southeastern part of the state\, the succulent Leedy’s roseroot clings to cold cliffs. On the northwestern grasslands\, the western prairie fringed orchid grows only on ancient glacial beach ridges. In the rivers of the Twin Cities metro area\, the snuffbox mussel snaps on a fish’s nose to give its larvae a temporary home. These species and fifteen others living in Minnesota are on the federal Endangered Species List. This book is an entertaining and educational journey through Minnesota’s diverse landscapes\, one wild and rare inhabitant at a time. Books will be available for purchase and signing. \nArvidson\, a talented science reporter and genial guide\, uncovers the stories of these plants and animals\, providing compelling views of the state’s northern pine forest\, deciduous forest\, and prairie landscapes. Readers learn how beach driving in Texas affects Minnesota’s northernmost bird; how ranchers feel about prairie minnows; how urban runoff affects rivers and therefore mussels; how the wolf ended up in court. Scientists\, orchid-hounds\, lawyers\, and nature lovers weigh in on the value and benefit of rare species—and their right to exist. \nAdam Regn Arvidson is a nonfiction writer and landscape architect living in Minneapolis. His work has appeared in publications ranging from Landscape Architecture Magazine to the Utne Reader to flyway: journal of writing and the environment. In 2009 he was awarded the Bradford Williams Medal for excellence in writing about landscape architecture.

SUMMARY:History Revealed: Diesel Heart
DESCRIPTION:Ramsey County Historical Society Presents\nMelvin Carter Jr.: Diesel Heart\nwith Marvin R. Anderson\n\nHistory Revealed Series\nMay 7\, 2019\nTuesday\, 7:00 pm\nEast Side Freedom Library\nFree and open to all. No reservations needed. \nJoin RCHS for History Revealed\, our program series featuring presentations and tours from the best of local historians\, authors and archaeologists\, with a wide range of topics drawn from the heritage and traditions of Ramsey County. \nFull of humor\, toughness\, hard work\, and surprising vulnerability\, this book shows the bitter weight of racism and the power of principled resistance.\n\nThe doctors gathered around\, passing the stethoscope from hand to hand\, taking turns listening to my chest. Finally\, the lead doctor said\, “Now\, that’s what I call a heartbeat!”\nI snapped\, “Whaddaya mean?”\n“It’s like hearing a diesel engine inside a Mustang body\,” he said. \nMelvin Whitfield Carter Jr.\, the father of St. Paul’s current mayor\, is a true son of Rondo\, the city’s storied African American neighborhood. He was born in a city divided along racial lines and rich in cultural misunderstanding. Growing up in the 1950s and ’60s\, he witnessed the destruction of his neighborhood by the I-94 freeway—and he found his way to fighting and trouble. \nBut Carter turned his life around. As a young man\, he enlisted in the US Navy. He used his fighting ability to survive racist treatment\, winning boxing matches and respect. And as an affirmative action hire in the St. Paul Police Department\, facing prejudice at every turn\, this hardworking\, talented\, and highly principled officer fought to protect the people of the city he calls home. \nDiesel Heart is the story of a leader who created a powerful family legacy by standing up for what is right\, even in the face of adversity. Marvin R. Anderson will be joining Melvin Carter in an informal\, engaging and enlightening conversation\, sharing Mr. Carter’s story and the history of a neighborhood and a city during a turbulent time. \nCopies of Diesel Heart will be available for purchase and signing. \nMelvin Whitfield Carter Jr. served as an officer in the St. Paul Police Department for twenty-eight years. He is the founder and executive director of Save Our Sons. \nMarvin Roger Anderson was raised in Saint Paul’s Rondo neighborhood before leaving to attend Morehouse College in Atlanta\, Georgia\, and then received his J.D. from Hastings College of Law in San Francisco. After serving int he Peace Corp\, he was an ordinance drafter for the city of Minneapolis Department of Civil Rights before earning his Master of Arts from the University of Minnesota’s School of Library Science. He was appointed State Law Librarian in 1980. Anderson’s tenure as State Law Librarian spanned 22 years and included many accomplishments including the “Everybody Wins” reading program\, which paired volunteer legal practitioners with elementary school students to encourage a life-long love of reading.

SUMMARY:History Revealed: Modern Bonds
DESCRIPTION:Ramsey County Historical Society Presents\nElizabeth Duclos-Orsello\, Modern Bonds: Redefining Community in Early 20th C Saint Paul\nTuesday\, March 12\, 2019\n7:00 pm\nEast Side Freedom Library\nIf you missed the presentation\, you can watch it at the following links:\nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/EastSideFreedomLibrary/videos/601328617047594/\nYouTube (somewhat better quality): https://youtu.be/MSZaVKkHuEw \nFree and open to all. No reservations needed. \nJoin RCHS for History Revealed\, our program series featuring presentations and tours from the best of local historians\, authors and archaeologists\, with a wide range of topics drawn from the heritage and traditions of Ramsey County. \nWhat does “community” mean and how did it come to signify everything from close friends to the entire world? Elizabeth Duclos-Orsello returns to St. Paul to talk about her new book\,  Modern Bonds: Redefining Community in Early Twentieth Century St. Paul\,  which considers how community was reconceptualized in the first decades of the twentieth century. Using St. Paul as an example\, she mines a wide range of materials to show how everyday practices and materials — fiction\, photography\, architecture\, public parks\, the winter carnivals — unite and divide citizens across lines of gender\, class\, and race\, while remaking the definition of “community.” Duclos-Orsello makes sense of the complex set of activities\, policies and practices that not only gave birth to modern America but continue to shape life today.  In this interactive lecture/discussion she will share key ideas and examples from the book with the goal of opening up conversations and motivating action in the here and now as much as offering a new synthesis of cultural\, social and intellectual history of the early 20th century. \nCopies of the book will be available for purchase and signing. \nElizabeth Ann Duclos-Orsello is professor and chair of interdisciplinary studies and coordinator of American studies at Salem State University.

SUMMARY:History Revealed: Our State Capitol
DESCRIPTION:Denis P. Gardner\, Our Minnesota State Capitol: From Groundbreaking through Restoration\n\nHistory Revealed Landmark Lunch Series\nSeptember 12\, 2018\nWednesday\, noon\nLandmark Center\nFree and open to all. \nJoin RCHS for History Revealed\, our program series featuring presentations and tours from the best of local historians\, authors and archaeologists\, with a wide range of topics drawn from the heritage and traditions of Ramsey County. \nFrom gleaming marble and vibrant art to new public spaces\, the Minnesota State Capitol’s $310 million renovation—the largest preservation effort since it opened in 1905—is complete. The Capitol now offers more public space\, and the building’s historic furniture\, artwork\, and interior decorations have been restored to their 1905 appearance. Learn about the history and rehabilitation of this iconic building from Denis P. Gardner\, Minnesota’s National Register Historian at the Minnesota State Historic Preservation Office. Gardner is the author of the recently-released book Our Minnesota State Capitol: From Groundbreaking through Restoration. \nThe Minnesota State Capitol is both an architectural masterpiece and a revered public building. This beautiful Renaissance Revival structure is the heart of the state’s civic life\, a place for celebrations\, demonstrations\, arguments\, and accomplishments. It’s where history happens. \n\n\n\n\nCompleted in 1905\, the capitol is a grand building on a grand scale\, and it reflected Minnesota’s growing cosmopolitanism. Noted architect Cass Gilbert won the design competition and then fought ferociously to see his vision built. At construction\, the capitol was a marvel of modern engineering\, with its own heating plant and the second-largest self-supported marble dome in the world. And more than a century later\, after a meticulous renovation in 2015–17\, the building glows again with its original beauty. \nThis book includes stories of the capitol’s construction and restoration\, laborers and craftspeople\, fine art and furnishings\, and politics and protests. It features remarkable photographs\, recently saved from a dumpster\, that document the original construction. And it celebrates this beloved building’s continued life at the center of the state’s civic culture. \n\n\n\n\nDenis P. Gardner is the National Register Historian at the Minnesota State Historic Preservation Office in St. Paul\, where he reviews the eligibility of properties for the National Register of Historic Places. He is the author of Minnesota Treasures: Stories Behind the State’s Historic Places (Minnesota Historical Society Press) and Wood\, Concrete\, Stone\, and Steel: Minnesota’s Historic Bridges (University of Minnesota Press). His latest book is Our Minnesota State Capitol: From Groundbreaking Through Restoration (Minnesota Historical Society Press). \n2018 History Revealed Programs\n\nSee the History Revealed information page for updates and a list of programs.\nOr check our Calendar for History Revealed programs and tours\, Gibbs Farm events and programs\, and more!

Every Minnesota soldier passed through historic Fort Snelling\, reactivated after it had been sold to a developer. The Fort eventually expanded to include several large camps of Native Americans\, massive stock yards\, huge warehouses\, and secure barracks for draftees before reverting to a supply depot in 1865. \n\nStephen Osman will share some of the letters\, stories and daily lives of the soldiers and civilians who lived\, worked\, and fought at Fort Snelling during the Civil War and the Dakota Conflict. The challenges faced by these young men\, many of whom had never been more than a few miles away from their out-state family farms before\, were daunting. And the Fort was not always in suitable shape to hold the vast influx of arriving recruits. Stephen will share these challenges and show images from his new book\, Fort Snelling and the Civil War\, published by RCHS. Books will be available for signing and for purchase. \n \nStephen Osman managed Historic Fort Snelling for over three decades and actively researches\, speaks and writes about Minnesota’s role in the Civil War and the U.S. Dakota War of 1862.

The area has been home to some of the best-known beer brands in America\, from Hamm’s and Schmidt’s to Yoerg’s and Olympia. Today\, microbreweries such as Bad Weather Brewing\, Summit Brewing and more than fifty others are forging new avenues. Join author Scott Carlson as he offers an intriguing history and guide to Twin Cities beer. \nAbout the author: \nScott Carlson is a Twin Cities journalist and writer. He spent nearly thirty years at the St. Paul Pioneer Press\, where he won numerous awards for his work. Most recently\, Scott served as a research associate in the Community Broadband Networks initiative at the Institute for Local Self-Reliance and as a media relations and communications consultant.

SUMMARY:History Revealed: Harold Stassen
DESCRIPTION:Ramsey County Historical Society Presents\nSteve Werle\, The Political Rise\, Demise & Redemption of Harold E. Stassen (1907-2001)\nHistory Revealed Series\nFebruary 15\, 2018\nThursday\, 7:00 pm\nRamsey County Roseville Library\nFree and open to all. \nJoin RCHS for a new series\, History Revealed\, featuring the best of local history authors talking about a wide range of topics drawn from the heritage and traditions of Ramsey County. See our History Revealed page here for more programs\, past and future. \nIn ten unsuccessful runs at the U.S. Presidency\, Harold Stassen became infamous as a perennial candidate. But his lifetime of achievements\, as Minnesota’s “boy governor\,” as a war hero\, as a founder of the United Nations\, as a nationally prominent Republican – are now mostly forgotten. Steve Werle will re-introduce us to Harold Stassen\, his life\, and his legacy in this presentation. Copies of Steve’s book on Harold Stassen\, “Stassen Again” will be available for purchase and for signing. \nDuring a lifetime devoted to public service\, Governor Harold Stassen left an indelible mark upon American politics. He first gained national prominence in the 1930s by revitalizing Minnesota’s Republican Party and establishing a progressive\, cooperative approach to state government. Although his numerous achievements are often obscured by his seemingly relentless quest to become president\, Stassen contributed greatly to the cause of international peace following World War II.

SUMMARY:History Revealed: Nick Coleman
DESCRIPTION:Ramsey County Historical Society Presents\nJohn Watson Milton\, For the Good of the Order: Nick Coleman\n\nHistory Revealed Series\nNovember 30\, 2017\nThursday\, 7:00 pm\nRamsey County Roseville Library\nFree and open to all. \nJoin RCHS for a new series\, History Revealed\, featuring the best of local history authors talking about a wide range of topics drawn from the heritage and traditions of Ramsey County. \nJohn Watson Milton will present the story of Nick Coleman\, the son of Irish immigrants who was an influential Minnesota state senator in the 1960’s and 1970’s\, and had an unsuccessful run for Governor. Coleman was instrumental in changing the Minnesota legislative branch and its agenda to a more progressive and respected one\, and was also instrumental in passing many reforms\, including the “Minnesota Miracle\,” legislation that shifted the burden for public education from property taxes to a more progressive state income tax. The presentation will touch on Coleman’s work and accomplishments\, the many great leaders he worked with from both sides of the political line\, and his legacy to Minnesota\, the nation and his family. \nMilton is the author of For the Good of the Order\, Nick Coleman and the High Tide of Liberal Politics in Minnesota\, published by RCHS. Books will be available for purchase. \n \nJohn Watson Milton was born in St. Paul\, Minnesota. He graduated magna cum laude from Princeton and the Woodrow Wilson School; he also studied at the Harvard School of Business. At Princeton he was the editorial chairman of The Daily Princetonian. Milton has published a wide variety of written works\, including poetry\, essay\, recipes\, speeches and short stories. He has written numerous articles for Ramsey County History magazine\, and authored For the Good of the Order\, Nick Coleman and the High Tide of Liberal Politics in Minnesota\, published by RCHS. His biographical novel\, The Fallen Nightingale\, won two national awards for historical fiction. The author lives with his Panamanian-born wife\, Maureen Angélica Acosta\, on a small farm in Afton\, Minnesota\, where he writes and grows wine-grapes. \nAs a Princeton sophomore\, Milton received a piece of valuable advice from Nobel Laureate Ernest Hemingway\, who told him: “If you’re a writer\, you write. No matter what happened last night\, no matter how much you drank\, no matter whose bed you climbed out of in the morning\, you write. If you don’t\, you’re not a writer.” \nHistory Revealed Program Series\nPlease note that topics and speakers may change. Check the website and our Facebook page for updates.

SUMMARY:History Revealed: Fort Snelling & the Civil War
DESCRIPTION:Ramsey County Historical Society Presents\nStephen Osman: Fort Snelling and the Civil War\nHistory Revealed Series\nApril 20\, 2017\nThursday\, 7 p.m.\nRamsey County Library – Roseville\nFree and open to all. \nJoin RCHS for a new series\, History Revealed\, featuring the best of local history authors talking about a wide range of topics drawn from the heritage and traditions of Ramsey County. \nOn April 20\, Stephen Osman discusses the role of Fort Snelling as a major military station in Minnesota during the Civil War\, and presents his new book\, “Fort Snelling and the Civil War\,” to be released this spring by the Ramsey County Historical Society. Stephen will be available for questions\, and to sign books. \nOne hundred fifty years ago our state offered the first volunteers to defend the Union. Every Minnesota soldier passed through historic Fort Snelling\, reactivated after it had been sold to a developer. The Fort eventually expanded to include several large camps of Native Americans\, massive stock yards\, huge warehouses\, and secure barracks for draftees before reverting to a supply depot in 1865. \nStephen Osman managed Historic Fort Snelling for over three decades and actively researches\, speaks and writes about Minnesota’s role in the Civil War and the U.S. Dakota War of 1862. Osman served with the US Army Reserve in Psychological Operations at Fort Snelling\, and has served on the boards of the Minnesota Military Museum\, the Friends of Fort Snelling\, the Twin Cities Civil War Roundtable. \nPlease join RCHS and Stephen Osman on April 20 for this fascinating discussion and book signing. No reservations needed. \nThis project has been financed in part with funds provided by the State of Minnesota from the Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund through the Minnesota Historical Society. \nHistory Revealed Program Series\nPlease note that topics and speakers may change.
