1942: The Year that Tried Our Souls -- Black Point Estate presentation
This program vividly recreates the story of America's first year in World War II. To the generation of Americans who lived through it, the Second World War was the defining event of the twentieth century, and the defining events of that war were played out in the year 1942. Through the use of images and newspaper accounts, this presentation, written by local historian Jeremy Olsen, covers this tumultuous year, from the global to local level in great detail. This program is also presented on the 80th anniversary of D-Day and the Battle of Normandy.
This program is presented by Dave Desimone, director of Black Point Estate, the Wisconsin Historical Society's historic house museum in Lake Geneva.
