The Brenham Heritage Museum invites the public to attend the next installment of its Speaker Series.

The program will take place on Tuesday, May 27^th from 6 to 7 p.m. at the Post Office museum building, 105 South Market Street.

The evening will feature noted historian and author Blake Pfeffer, presenting insights from his book, “Shouts from the Republic: A Brief History of the Republic of Texas and the Cost of Freedom”.

A respected voice in the historical community, Pfeffer has spoken at the Texas State Historical Association, the Texas State Capitol, and before numerous civic and historical organizations throughout the state.

Prior to the presentation, a members-only reception with food and refreshments will be held at 5:30 p.m.
