Discover the incredible true story of a German nationalist’s
1915 crime spree that put a nation on edge. The instructor
will reveal how Erich Muenter poisoned his wife, bombed the
U.S. Capitol, and attempted to assassinate J.P. Morgan, Jr. —
all while operating under a false identity. You will learn how
this compelling story reflects the period’s anxieties about
false identities, class conflict, and the simmering tensions
leading to World War I. Join us for the discovery.
