What IFs in American History with Ken Peters, PhD
Mondays, 1:30 – 2:30 PM
Georgetown Public Library Hewlett Room
In Person
What would have happened if the French had won the French and Indian War? If Texas had not been annexed and remained independent? If Lincoln had not been assassinated or the assassination attempt against Lincoln and his cabinet had been completely successful? Should the United States have joined the League of Nations and would it have prevented World War II? What if the Japanese had not bombed Pearl Harbor? All these were very real possibilities, and they are some of the questions that will be discussed.
Ken Peters grew up near Georgetown, in Copperas Cove, Texas, and received his B.A. degree from Southwestern University. He did graduate work at the University of Texas, obtaining MA and PhD degrees, and later taught American history at Texas A&M. In 1980 he began his second career in the Presbyterian ministry, earning the M.Div. degree from Austin Presbyterian Seminary and retired from New Braunfels Presbyterian Church. Dr. Peters is excited about coming back to Lifelong Learners GTX!
