SUMMARY:Local Author Book Talk: Behind the Scenes of Japanese Baseball with Rob Fitts
DESCRIPTION:On September 10\, award-winning author Robert K. Fitts of Riverdale will talk about baseball in Japan and his new book In the Japanese Ballpark. After providing an overview designed to acquaint new fans with Japanese baseball\, Fitts will give a behind-the-scenes look at what makes Japanese baseball unique—and so much fun. He will talk about the differences between American and Japanese baseball both on the diamond and in the stands.  Come hear about life as a player in Japan\, cheering groups\, fuzzy mascots\, and beer girls. \nA book signing will follow the talk. \nAbout the Author: \nRobert Fitts has published eleven books and numerous articles on the history of baseball in Japan and Japanese baseball cards. He received his Ph.d. in historical archaeology from Brown University and ran excavations in New York City before turning to baseball history. He is the founder and chair of the Society of American Baseball Research’s Asian Baseball Committee and recently received the society’s Chadwick Award for lifetime contributions to baseball history.

The Kingsbridge Historical Society’s programs are made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature. \n

SUMMARY:Washington and the King's Bridge
DESCRIPTION:Ken Burns’ remarkable documentary on the American Revolution has dropped in time for the 250th Anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence and the military events of 1776 in Brooklyn\, Manhattan and points north. The episodes which captured the actions of George Washington and the Continental Army in 1776 were not able to relate the full history of Washington’s evacuation of Manhattan Island. Rather\, the narrative moves from the skirmish in Harlem Heights directly to the Battle of White Plains\, reducing the actual evacuation to a footnote\, regardless of the near demise of the Continental Army as it departed Manhattan. \nThis presentation at the Riverdale Neighborhood House by Kingsbridge Historical Society member Gerry Bogacz explores the details of Washington’s departure from Manhattan and the near destruction of the Continental Army as it moves north over the King’s Bridge from Manhattan to the mainland in the current northwest Bronx. It includes the critical roles of two Continental Army units in obstructing British General Howe as his force attempts to encircle the departing Americans. The second of these units\, under Colonel John Glover\, included free Black and indigenous soldiers fighting among their white counterparts. \nIf not for these units\, the American forces certainly could have been encircled and destroyed\, which would have ended the Revolutionary enterprise.
