Watch at the Library

We show online events on our big movie screen (when possible) or in a study room. The event is still online and live, not in-person or pre-recorded.

If you are interested in watching this online event at the library, let us know when you register.

Join author Marcia Zug live on Zoom to discuss her new book You’ll Do: A History of Marrying for Reasons Other Than Love. She will discuss the unromantic (but much more common than most would like to think) reasons for marrying throughout history, from the Colonial era through the #MeToo age.

 

About the Author

Marcia Zug is a family law professor at the University of South Carolina School of Law. She is a graduate of Dartmouth College and The Yale Law School. Her previous book, Buying A Bride,  explored the history of mail order marriage in the United States.

 

Sponsored by the Wethersfield Public Library.
