Anita Kulina will take us on a virtual history tour of Greenfield, which until 1868 was part of Squirrel Hill. With photos of current locales linking you to the past, you'll learn the history of sites you may drive by every day. She'll take us back as far as the days when Squirrel Hill was a hunting ground for Indians, and she'll show us sites which in the past were coal mines, brickyards and forts. She'll tell us stories of bootleggers, prizefighters, acrobats, "white Indians" and other renegades. Everyone who attends this talk will receive access to a free downloadable ebook detailing these historical sites. With this ebook, you can take this tour at your leisure and actually walk in the footsteps of the fascinating people who were the early residents of Squirrel Hill and Greenfield.
