Thanks to the Harvard-Radcliffe Club of Westchester, @HarvardAlumni and everyone who turned out for my virtual book talk last Thursday. It's always rewarding to see so many fellow history fans in the room. #westchesterhistory #nyshistory #mcfarlandcopub bit.ly/3HRVXzm

Ran the Westchester Half Marathon on the Bronx River Parkway listening to @1071_thepeak and the Wallflowers came on, recorded in Mamaroneck. A great Westchester moment. The parkway has tons of history, which I discovered in my research: tinyurl.com/yygy4boc
