Somerset Hills AAUW Author's Luncheon - Marc Mappen, NJ Historian

SOMERSET HILLS AAUW PRESENTS MARC MAPPEN – New Jersey HISTORIAN

AUTHOR’S LUNCHEON at THE SOMERSET HILLS HOTEL

(HURRY! RESERVATIONS DUE MARCH 8) 

There’s More to New Jersey Than the Sopranos, is a lively romp through history from the primitive past to the present day, filled with zest, humor, scandal, and occasionally, tragedy (Rivergate Books, 2009). “Mappen pulls out little-known tidbits in our state’s history to illustrate a long-standing assertion by many historians that it is difficult to find national and international events without some link to New Jersey. Mappen makes a sound argument to lift our state from a punchline to a more suitable noble station in our hearts and minds."—Asbury Park Press/Home News Tribune/Courier News/Daily Record 2/28/10

An engaging speaker, Mappen has written for national periodicals and has appeared on the History Channel and National Public Radio. He has a PhD in American history, is a former Rutgers Dean, former Executive Director of the NJ Historical Commission, and co-author of the award-winning Encyclopedia of New Jersey.
