March 16, 2010 Tom Magnuson, President
of the Trading Path Association will present Moving Into the
Carolina Backcountry, a discussion of the
historic trading paths in North Carolina. This program was made possible
through the support of the NC Humanities Council. Tom Magnuson received his BA (1972) and MA (1977) in History from San Jose State University. Tom is a member of the Historical Society of North Carolina, he is currently a visiting scholar at the University of North Carolina Institute for Southern Studies, and he is a member of the North Carolina Humanities Forum through which he gives public lectures on colonial transportation in Carolina. In the seventies he worked in the integrated circuit industry and for the Navy's Special Projects Office (SSPO), and after post-graduate work at the Naval Post Graduate School (1977) and Duke University (1978-1982), where he studied doctrine development processes, he spent much of the eighties and nineties doing organization design and nurturing start-up ventures. In 1998 he turned an avocational interest in piedmont history and geography into the Trading Path Association. As founder and current President, Tom is responsible for making this venture a success. www.tradingpath.org May 18, 2010 Tom Hamilton, WAHS Archives Chair, will discuss projects of the WAHS Archives Committee.
