Join Michael Harrison as he unravels a mystery from the Nantucket Historical Association’s collections. An unexplained inscription on a scrimshaw tooth, Baptist missionaries in Burma, a deadly wreck at Tom Nevers, and a long-ignored island merchant’s account book all figure in a story of heartbreak and friendship linking Nantucket to Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Indiana in the 1840s and 1850s.
Michael R. Harrison is Chief Curator & Obed Macy Research Chair at the Nantucket Historical Association. He has held curatorial positions at the National Building Museum, the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History, and the Glasgow Museum of Transport. He is the author of numerous books and articles, as well as nearly seventy historical reports on maritime, architectural, and engineering topics for U.S. National Park Service’s Heritage Documentation Programs. He is a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania and holds a master’s degree in museum studies from the George Washington University.
