The American Experience week is July 30-August 3. The speaker is Kevin Boyle who is the William Smith Mason Professor of American History at Northwestern University whose book Arc of Justice won the National Book Award for Nonfiction and was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for History.
Professor Boyle is currently working on a new book, The Splendid Dead: An American Ordeal, which centers around the story of the infamous anarchists, Sacco and Vanzetti. It is to be published by Houghton Mifflin. He will be discussing the societal impact of the people, places, and events of the 60’s decade.
