History Speaks: The Tools that Made America

  • Bushy Run Battlefield 2513 Bushy Run Road Jeannette, PA, 15644 United States (map)

The Bushy Run Battlefield Heritage Society, Inc. (BRBHS) will welcome Bob Kendra to speak on “Tools That Made America” on Wednesday, June 21 at 7:00 in the evening. Kendra is fascinated by tools used by early American pioneers in the 17th and 18th centuries. Over the last 60 years, this fascination has resulted in a collection of a vast assortment of tools used in various industries including lumbering, log cabin construction, barrel-making for transport of food products, and commonly used household items.

During this History Speaks Series program, there will be a video presentation along with a demonstration by Kendra of his collection of tools. Join historically minded individuals for this most interesting presentation.

Tickets for this presentation in the History Speaks Series are $10 for members and $15 for non-members and can be purchased online at: https://historyspeakstools.eventbrite.com. As this is a limited-capacity event, we encourage our guests to purchase their tickets online in advance. We cannot guarantee ticket availability at the door. For more information, call the battlefield at 724-527-5584.
