Description
What happened during Blackbeard's last days that precipitated his demise? Who, truly, was Edward Teach, and from whence did he come? What was his true name and where may he have hidden his treasure?
North Carolina Humanities Council's Road Scholar author Kevin Duffus, in his newest lecture, invites audiences to enter the dimly-lit passageway of time and learn surprising contradictions to previously-published historical accounts of the last days of Blackbeard the pirate. This FREE lecture will be held in the Museum Conference room at 2pm
