SUMMARY:Local Author Talk: Bruce Mowday: "Lafayette at Brandywine"
DESCRIPTION:Lafayette at Brandywine: The Making of an American Hero clearly 
 shows the battle of Brandywine as a key event in American history because 
 of Gen. Lafayette. As Chuck Schwam\, Treasurer of The American Friends of 
 Lafayette\, wrote in the book’s foreword: \n\n“This book certainly goes 
 a long way in fulfilling our common goal: making sure that Americans 
 understand that Lafayette and the Franco-American alliance were 
 indispensable components of ensuring the United States’ independence from 
 England. Sharing Lafayette’s legacy with the general public is a top 
 priority of The American Friends of Lafayette. This extraordinary book 
 clearly proves that Bruce has the same goal.\n\nLafayette at Brandywine: 
 The Making of an American Hero does a perfect job of helping us understand 
 what motivated a “Boy General” to put himself in harm’s way at his 
 very first battle. He did not stay on the sidelines like most aristocrats 
 of the day\, but went where musket balls and artillery fire whizzed by him. 
 Not because he was told to be in the “thick of it\,” but because he 
 chose to be.”\n\nBruce Mowday is an award-winning author and newspaper 
 reporter. Mowday has appeared on the Discovery ID channel\, C-SPAN\, and 
 the Pennsylvania Cable Network\, along with Philadelphia and local 
 television shows. He recently appeared on Counter Culture\, a PBS 
 Emmy-winning show\, about his book\, "Stealing Wyeth".  He lives in West 
 Chester\, PA.
