Redding Archaeology; Open Spaces and University Excavations
Over the last few years, Redding's open space and planning policies have led to the preservation and study of important archaeological sites. Several college and university archaeological field schools have brought hundreds of students from around the world to unearth Redding's illustrious past.
You are invited to attend a lecture describing Norwalk Community College's research in Redding. They have uncovered evidence of over 4,000 years of Native American occupations at Gallows Hill.
Lectures will be presented on Saturday afternoons at the Redding Community Center.

I have recently partnered with Fast Spring which allows me to share my materials in PDF and Word Document format.
The Complete Guide to My Brother Sam is Dead is now available and in Word Document format to allow teachers to copy and paste the material into their own lesson plans if they wish to.
Follow this link: The Complete Guide to My Brother Sam is Dead ($6.00 in Word Format)
This 163 page document was created to help parents and teachers better understand the topics woven into each chapter of the fictional history novel and provide them with the resources needed to effectively teach it in their classrooms.
It includes chapter by chapter summary & analysis, background on the town of Redding, maps, real life events that were fictionalized in the novel, biographies of real life characters used in the novel... even lesson plans and self-grading tests for each chapter(test results can be emailed directly to you).
This is the most complete guide to the novel available. I grew up in Redding, Connecticut and my family has lived in Redding since 1862.
