Description
Discover the truth behind persistent historical myths and the origins of popular sayings people have been using for centuries in this free talk at the Guilford Free Library by Henry Whitfield State Museum Curator and Site Administrator Michael McBride. Were New England’s English colonists religious, short people who dressed only in black and white clothes and died in their 40s? Why do we say ‘sleep tight, don’t let the bed bugs bite’ when people go to bed? Bring your favorite myths and sayings to add to the fun.
