Steve's History Classes
This fall I'll be teaching in two Programs: Encore at Cuyahoga Community College East on Richmond Road. Seven classes on Friday at one pm and please check with the College on line for dates of the classes. Each class will be a different topic about the "Panama Canal." Topics include: The Earliest Canals in the US, The Train that Crossed the Isthmus, The French Effort to Build a Canal, and The War with the Mosquito.
I'll also be teaching "Civil War Stories" at the JCC in Beachwood. Once I have dates and times, I'll share.
