“Awful, Awful Presidents”
Old St. Francis History Pub
Presented by historian/actor Alastair Jaques
Dive into the obscure, forgotten depths of America’s history and dredge up some of the worst presidents ever to sully the Oval Office.
Speaker Alastair Morley Jaques introduces you to some forgotten chief executives that you might wish had remained forgotten. And you thought we had it bad nowadays.
These monthly, free events are open to everyone interested in Oregon and Pacific Northwest history. Co-sponsored by like-minded historical and civic organizations, we bring you experts, scholars, first-person experiencers and historians who expound on topics from Lewis and Clark to shipwrecks, hop growing to women pioneers and far, far beyond. It’s like being back in the classroom – except this time you get to settle into comfortable seats and enjoy a drink or two with dinner while you listen and learn.
