SUMMARY:Colonial Men's Attire in Castine
DESCRIPTION:Men’s fashion at the time of the American Revolution was very
  different than men’s fashion of today. Historian Henry Cooke will offer
  a public lecture entitled Soldiers\, Sailors and Loyal Citizens All: The 
 Dress of Castine during the British Occupation\, 1779-1783 on Friday eveni
 ng\, August 18 (7 - 9 p.m.)\, at the Hutchins Education Center in Castine.
  When the British Army and Navy arrived in Castine in 1779\, they added th
 eir unique attire to that of a port town filled with fishermen\, ship buil
 ders\, skilled tradespeople\, as well as merchants and their genteel ladie
 s. This lecture will draw upon historical records\, period artwork and bot
 h original and reproduction garments to illustrate the distinguishing qual
 ity and style represented in Castine’s colorful community. The lecture i
 s free and open to the public.\n\nHenry Cooke of Historical Costume Servic
 es has two degrees in American Social History with a focus on the ordinary
  people of the Revolutionary era. His interest in that time period found e
 xpression in living history as a founding member of the Tenth Massachusett
 s Regiment\, which he helped to found in 1977\, and subsequently led for e
 ighteen years. His research into the material culture of the past\, partic
 ularly in the study and reproduction of historic costume\, was born of pra
 ctical necessity to get historical clothing for interpretation. This event
 ually evolved to become his current business\, Historical Costume Services
 \, which he operates out of his 1850s vintage home in Randolph\, Massachus
 etts.\n\nFor more information visit the Wilson Museum’s Calendar of Even
