Thanks to Walpole (MA) High School Juniors in 3 AP History Classes for a Special Day Discussing Dark Tide!
I was thrilled to visit Walpole (MA) High School and speak to students in three separate AP U.S. History classes about my book, Dark Tide: The Great Boston Molasses Flood of 1919, which was their required summer reading. Many thanks to teachers Tim Giblin and Jamie O’Leary for turning their classes over to me for some great discussions (Jamie’s afternoon class is shown in this photo).
I was so impressed with these WHS juniors, whose questions were outstanding and whose observations were shrewd and thoughtful — the classes went by so fast, which is the best indicator of a lively discussion! Thanks to WHS students and to Tim and Jamie for a great day!
