On Thursday, April 9 at 6:00 p.m., historian and longtime reenactor Mark Tully will visit the Driftless Historium (100 S 2nd St, Mount Horeb) in costume and character, and present “Redcoats in Wisconsin.” Mark will bring history to life and regale the audience with the true story of the British military’s Revolutionary era forays into the Wisconsin frontier and how it shaped the region’s development.
Mark Tully is a historian, musician and author of twelve Colonial and early American history titles, including “The Packet,” a five-part “Collection of Patterns, Articles and Essays Pertaining to the American Revolution.” He is an active member of the Northwest Territory Alliance, a non-profit organization that studies and recreates the culture and arts of the Revolutionary War era. He has consulted for historic sites, theatrical products, archaeological investigations and scholars, and regularly shared his knowledge for schools, symposiums and lectures.
