BURLINGTON — The Alamance County Historical Museum invites the community to a dinner and lecture by Warren L. Bingham about George Washington and his 1791 Southern tour.

In the spring of 1791, President George Washington paid a formal visit to Virginia, the Carolinas and Georgia, a trip that was part of his plan to visit the 13 states during his term as president.
In his book published by the History Press, “George Washington’s 1791 Southern Tour,” Warren Bingham chronicles this important 18th-century journey and considers the past and present of Washington’s route.
Bingham grew up in North Carolina and has lived most of his adult life in Raleigh. Though he has had a career in financial and philanthropic services, he has long maintained a vigorous sideline as a writer and speaker on topics in history. In 2016, his book on Washington’s Southern tour was published.
