Thank you to everyone who came out tonight to enjoy an evening with Brady Crytzer! We had a packed house and a wonderful experience, and enjoyed a surprise visit for the evening by Thomas Jefferson's Secretary of the Treasury And the genius behind the road, Albert Gallatin.

A very special thank you to Mr. Crytzer and to Mr. Ron Duquette (who depicted Gallatin) for coming to our Museum with this important and fascinating story.

If you missed the event but would still like a copy of Mr. Crytzer's book, we still have copies available in our gift shop, get them while autographed copies remain in stock!
