Our Fall 2009 New York Event a Great Success!

I am pleased to report that the 19th Century Pub Crawl was a rousing success! Over forty people turned out and we covered five bars, from E 4th st. to E 55th. We got a lot of great listings including the New York Times , the Daily News and my personal favorite on Shecky's.

We were a motley crew, all ages and backgrounds, brought together by our mutual love of history. Additionally, there were some impressively costumed ladies sporting full 19th century garb, corsets and all. Most of us were dressed more casually, but were no less enthusiastic about the night's proceedings. I don't think a more convivial group could have been found anywhere on the streets of New York that night.
