October 28th @ 7:00PM – This exciting new online lecture by Ed Hynes reveals the action, intrigue and terror of the people living around Long Island Sound during America’s War for Independence. With the Connecticut and Long Island coasts less than 10 miles apart in many sections of the Sound, raiders crossed every fair night either to smuggle and/or steal goods; and kidnap or kill enemies. Spies on both sides rounded out this dangerous cast of characters.
