Prof. Travis Glasson - Presents "Nobody Men"

Please join us for a lecture by Prof. Travis Glasson, Temple University Professor and Author of the new book "Nobody Men" Prof. Glasson is a historian of Britain, the British Empire, and the transnational Atlantic world.

"Nobody Men" is the story of colonists who were neither loyalists nor patriots during the American Revolution, as told through the experiences of one transatlantic family

At least one-third of the colonial population were neutrals during the American Revolution, yet they have rarely featured in narratives that shape our ideas about the conflict. By following a single transatlantic family, the Crugers, historian Travis Glasson puts neutrals--the "nobody men"--at the center of this tumultuous period's history.
