FREEDOM — Freedom Historical Society, in partnership through a grant from the New Hampshire Humanities, will be presenting “John Winant: New Hampshire’s Man of the World,” by Richard Hesse on Wednesday, Aug. 18, at 7 p.m. The Zoom program is free and open to to members as well as to the public.

Winant is an obscure figure to almost all current New Hampshire citizens. Yet, he is easily New Hampshire’s most accomplished governor. In addition to serving three terms as governor and leading the state through the nation’s most trying economic crisis, Winant was an economic reformer who helped frame Social Security and was an international leader in the labor movement.
