How We Ended Up Speaking English (and not another language!)

Romans, Celts, Anglo-Saxons, Norsemen and French have all ruled Great Britain. Why is it then that we don't speak Latin or Danish? On Sunday, September 15th, 2013, Ross Harvey, a director of Harvey's Literary Tours in southwest England will answer this provocative question.

The meeting will be held at the Kirby Arts Center of Lawrenceville School at 3.00 p.m. After the lecture there will be an opportunity to pose questions and we will follow this with nibbles and drinks and an opportunity to socialize with other members and the speaker.
