Albert Gallatin, the Exploration of Louisiana Territory and the Creation of Montana
Speaker: Brian S. Reedy

Join us for an evening with Brian S. Reedy, Chief of Interpretation & Visitor Services at Fort Necessity National Battlefield & Friendship Hill National Historic Site. Friendship Hill was the home of Albert Gallatin, Thomas Jefferson’s Secretary of the Treasury and one of the planners of the Lewis and Clark expedition. Learn how Gallatin, a respected politician, diplomat, ethnologist and linguist left his name on a Montana county, river and mountain peak without ever leaving the American east coast.
