Please join us at the Flagler County Public Library for history presentations by Zach Zacharias, Senior Curator of Education and History at the Museum of Arts and Sciences in Daytona Beach, FL.

Topic: "Florida History through the Amazing Illustrations of Harper's Weekly"

Once the most popular newspaper in America from 1855-1910, Harper's gave birth to modern journalism.  Using amazing illustrations carved from wood engravings and new technology, Harper's Illustrated Weekly could visually document moments in American and Florida History with great ease.  A blend of art, technology and history, this presentation takes you on a visual journey through the state during The Civil War and Gilded Age of Florida.  The art is exquisite and the stories are amazing.

If you have any questions please contact the library at (386)446-6763.
