This talk by Mark Boonshoft, a PhD student at The Ohion State University, will reconstruct the social lives of Litchfield law students and female academy students. Their interactions with each other and with some of Litchfield’s most important residents led to the creation of a nationally expansive network of information and patronage which helped to jumpstart the political careers of many Law School alumni. The Ledger was a key component in the research for this talk.
