Jack's back! Join us as we welcome Jack Lasseter, well known local orator and historian. The history of the West is not just the story of men. It is the story of men and women. This is Jack's first talk on the fascinating story of some of the women on the Arizona frontier, and a tough and hardy bunch they were. But they would bring civilization to this land. He focuses on three, an Apache woman, a Spanish woman and a New England woman. They have three different stories but all poignant to the development of Arizona. Others include Chinese, African-American, Jewish, Mormon, and ranch women. Also there are governors, judges, a bridesmaid of Eleanor Roosevelt, the Captain of the "Arizona Navy", the first territorial historian, a famous painter and architect, and the last stagecoach robber.

Your ticket includes admission to the Tubac Presidio State Historic Park and Museum, light refreshments and lecture. Although, this isn’t your typical "lecture"- free from Powerpoint, sit back relax and enjoy a story that takes you back in time.
