The Gilded Age was a time of sweeping change that included unprecedented technological innovations, rapid industrialization, mass immigration and opulent wealth (for some.) This era is associated with political corruption and labor exploitation. With all of this combined, it is a fascinating time. Join Gilded Age Authors, Nancy Markey and Kay Adams as they explore a tale of seduction, betrayal, and revenge. In her words, “I could have killed him twice.” Discover what led Annie Cutler to kill her lover, Henry Knight on April 22nd, 1885.

This class is part of the Gilded Age series but each class is considered a stand-alone. This class is being brought to you in a hybrid setting (in-person and via zoom.)
