The Cultural Brouhaha of 1924- " Finding a home for the Reading Public Museum"

                                        with Brian Engelhardt

Join local historian and author Brian Engelhardt as we revisit the bitter poltics and controversy regarding where the Museum would be located. The conflict involved Dr. Levi Mengel, the Museum's first curator, several school board members, including its President, and the most generous patron of the Museum.
