*CLARKE SPEAKER SERIES*
*Death of an American King: The Fall of the Mormon Kingdom on Beaver Island*
Dr. Hill is Professor Emeritus of Political Science at CMU.
We are pleased to welcome James P. Hill, to discuss his new novel, *The King Must Die.*
In this novel, a future CMU professor explores the unresolved issues behind the conspiracy to assassinate King James Jesse Strang of Beaver Island in 1856. In his research journey, the professor faces political threats from those who do not want this issue resurrected and evidentiary hurdles to re-examine an old issue most historians considered settled. His unusual methodology results in new insights into the King Strang assassination plot.
*Join Us for This In-Person Event:* *7:00 p.m., Tuesday, September 2* * Opperman Auditorium, Park Library*
A reception and book signing in the Clarke will follow this event.
Clarke Speaker Series events are free of charge and open to everyone. For more information, call (989) 774-3864, email *clarke@cmich.edu* <clarke@cmich.edu>, or visit clarke.cmich.edu/SpeakerSeries
