    Brooklyn Voices Presents Nathaniel Philbrick

    Thursday, May 19, 2016
    7:30 pm
    Tuohy Hall Auditorium, SJC Brooklyn

    St. Joseph’s College (SJC), in partnership with Greenlight Bookstore, is pleased to announce that it will welcome historian Nathaniel Philbrick to discuss his latest work, Valiant Ambition, in conversation with NBC’s Bob Dotson.

    Valiant Ambition is a story of battles lost and won, evoking a Shakespearean tragedy that unfolds in the key relationship of George Washington and Benedict Arnold. Philbrick will discuss his vision of a fledgling nation struggling with internal strife and high ideals, with resonances that echo today, with Emmy Award-winning journalist and author Bob Dotson, creator of the NBC series American Story. 

    Tickets for this event are $30 and include a copy of the book. There will be an opportunity to have to the book signed by Philbrick following the discussion. For more information, contact Michael Banach at 718.940.5584 or [email protected].
