Our April 18 Program will take place in the Gathering Room at 7:30 pm. We’re getting back to normal
Roger Lowenstein, son of Helen Lowenstein, returns to Kendal to discuss his highly acclaimed new book Ways and Means —Lincoln and His Cabinet and the Financing of the Civil War -- a revelatory financial investigation into how Lincoln and his administration used the funding of the Civil War as the catalyst to centralize the government and accomplish the most far-reaching reform in the country’s history.
Lowenstein, a Cornell University graduate, reported for the Wall Street Journal for more than a decade, including two years writing its “Heard on the Street” column. His work has appeared in numerous publications. His books include the New York Times bestsellers Buffett, When Genius Failed, and The End of Wall Street, and the critically acclaimed Origins of the Crash, While America Aged, and America’s Bank.
Copies of Ways and Means will be available for purchase @$25 each.
