THANK YOU!! Glad you enjoyed the C-SPAN BookTV talk. I was a little worried
that the audio might not have been adequate for broadcast. I've always been
responsive to audience questions, so although there may be some overlap no
two presentations are identical and many time they vary widely. Smithsonian
Associates crowd especially wanted to discuss slavery, so we never got to
many other things ... LVA interviewer focused a lot on Henry's early life
so we barely touched on Constitution .... Va Historical Society talk had
more about his relationships with Washington and Jefferson .... Talk last
week at Red Hill got into Henry's friendships with religious dissenters etc
etc.
So, as always it will be interesting to see where we go at St. John's
Church, or later in South Boston, Roanoke, Pearisburg etc etc. There's
far more than anyone can address in an hour, so (as with other books &
topics) I enjoy Q&A and letting the audience and their interests shape each
presentation. . . . and of course the book is available :)
But again, THANK YOU for your appreciative remarks.
