The Rising Sun Inn Spring Author Series presents John Beakes and Washington’s Officers. Join us on Saturday, April 21, 2018, at the Rising Sun Inn in Crownsville, Maryland, for John’s presentation on “Light Horse Harry” Lee in the War for Independence. Admission for Friends of the Rising Sun Inn members is $12.00 and $15.00 for non-members.
John’s lifelong passion for military history was the driving force to tell the largely untold story of George Washington’s success in building a team of outstanding military leaders from the young clerks, shopkeepers, farmers, and sons of the landed gentry who fought in the Continental Army.
