Bob Crawford, best known as the bassist of the beloved folk band The Avett Brothers, is a historian and author of Founding Son: John Quincy Adams, from President to Political Maverick. He is the creator of the podcasts “Founding Son: John Quincy’s America” and “The Road to Now.” Join us for this very special History Pub as Bob Crawford delves into early American history, in conversation with Oregon Historical Society Executive Director Kerry Tymchuk.

 

For many years, Bob Crawford spent long stretches on his tour bus devouring books on American history. Among all the figures Crawford has studied, one fascinated him most: John Quincy Adams, the often-overlooked former president whose fierce independence, nimble activism for democracy, and early crusade against slavery still echo powerfully today.
