Join us for a fun afternoon with nationally syndicated travel journalist and St. Louis radio broadcaster Bill Clevlen for great stories and a behind the scenes look at presidential places. You’ll enjoy a journey that includes everything from George Washington’s birthplace to the train depot where Jimmy Carter launched his 1978 campaign. Along the way, you’ll see things like James Madison’s home library, George W. Bush’s childhood bedroom, the leather chair where Ulysess S. Grant spent the last few weeks of his life, and Ronald Reagan’s Air Force One. Bill will share some highlights from his latest book, Presidential Road Trips and inspire you to take a trip of your own!
Copies of the book and Bill’s new children’s book – Funny Presidents will be available for sale following the program.
