Stop by the Winslow House in Marshfield on Tuesday, July 7th at 10am, when historian Robert Smith stops by as part of the Winslow House's Tuesday Morning Coffee Hour Series. An undeclared war between the United States and France, the "Quasi-War" was the result of disagreements over treaties and the America's status as a neutral in the wars of the French Revolution. These military problems also created dissension and a falling out between President John Adams and Vice President Thomas Jefferson, leading to a rise in political parties. Worcester State College professor and historian Robert Smith will examine this nearly-forgotten but critical episode in the formation of the American republic. The Winslow House is located at 634 Careswell Street in Marshfield. Call 781-837-5753 for tickets and for more information.
