SUMMARY:History Revealed: Peoples Library
DESCRIPTION:Ramsey County Historical Society Presents\nGreg Gaut\, Reinventing the Peoples Library\n\nHistory Revealed Series\nJuly 18\, 2019\nThursday\, 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. \nAuthor Greg Gaut will present his new book\, Reinventing the People’s Library\, which traces the history of the Arlington Hills Library\, one of three Carnegie Libraries in Saint Paul\, and its reinvention as the East Side Freedom Library. More than the history of a building\, the book is the story of the East Side community\, the history of immigration in Saint Paul\, and the role that libraries have played in the development of Minnesota. \nGreg Gaut earned his doctorate from the University of Minnesota and taught history at St. Mary’s University in Winona until his retirement in 2011. Since then he has focused on historic preservation\, preparing nominations for the National Register of Historic Places and for landmark status under local preservation ordinances. He has written articles for Minnesota History magazine and has twice won the David Gebhard Award for best article on Minnesota’s built environment. He has also written Laird’s Legacy: A History of the Winona Public Library. \n2019 History Revealed Programs\n\nSee the History Revealed 2019 information page for updates and a list of programs.\nOr check our Calendar for these and other programs at the Gibbs Farm\, and more!

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. Space is limited. \n2019 History Revealed Programs\n\nSee the History Revealed 2019 information page for updates and a list of programs.\nOr check our Calendar for these and other programs at the Gibbs Farm\, and more!

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: The Leavenworth Expedition
DESCRIPTION:Ramsey County Historical Society Presents\nGary Brueggemann: The Long Legacy of the Leavenworth Expedition (1819-20)\nHistory Revealed Series\nJune 27\, 2019\nThursday\, 7:00 pm\nRamsey County Roseville 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. \nTwo hundred years ago the largest expedition to enter present-day Minnesota launched the development of an American military establishment near the meeting of the Mississippi and Minnesota rivers that proved to be a great turning point in Minnesota history. Never before in history had so many non-natives in one group traveled so far up the Mississippi – more than 530 miles north of St. Louis and over 200 miles upriver from Prairie du Chien\, the northernmost settlement on the Mississippi in 1819. And never before had so many people from so many places made such a large “Cantonment” in that part of the wilderness. \nIncluded among the 128 members of this historic expedition were the first non-Indigenous women and children to enter present-day Minnesota\, and the former New York lawyer and politician and war hero who led them\, – the “polished gentleman” destined for fame but also misery – Commander Lieutenant Colonel Henry Leavenworth. The group’s adventurous story\, which included the tragic deaths of dozens of soldiers and extraordinary hardships for everyone\, is a significant chapter in Minnesota history; yet it is one of the lesser known ones remembered today – and when it is remembered its legacy is largely underappreciated and the details of the story greatly condensed. \nMinnesota historian and author Gary Brueggemann  has been extensively researching this interesting and important story and will share what he has uncovered in a special pictorial presentation. \nGary Brueggemann is a lifetime resident of St. Paul’s West 7th neighborhood\, and he credits his love of history to his father\, who inspired his son with tales about his own childhood growing up along the river below the Randolph Ave. bluff. Gary received undergraduate and graduate degrees from University Of Wisconsin – River Falls. Now retired\, in 1978 Gary developed the first-ever college accredited course on St. Paul history for Inver Hills Community College\, where he served as a history professor. \nPhoto of Colonel Henry Leavenworth\, Wikimedia Commons\, in the public domain.

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. He has served as an editor for several publications and is the author of Greening the Landscape: Strategies for Environmentally Sound Practice.  \n2019 History Revealed Programs\n\nSee the History Revealed 2019 information page for updates and a list of programs.\nOr check our Calendar for these and other programs at the Gibbs Farm\, and more!
