Author and historian, Dr. Christopher Leahy will deliver an overview of the historical significance of Impeachment in the United States:

insights on impeachment
its historical basis
constitutional significance
the impeachment process

Additionally Dr. Leahy will share details from his forthcoming book--President without a Party: The Life of John Tyler--on the 10th US President John Tyler who, in a little-known episode of our history, was the first American president to contend with the threat of impeachment.

The lecture will be followed by a question-and-answer conversation.
