Mac Deford and Tom DeMarco's History roadshow prelude to Camden Conference takes place this week at the Hutchinson Center on Sunday, January 22 at 1PM (and not at 2 as originally planned).

Join Tom and Mac for their intriguing history road show in anticipation of the coming Camden Conference: The U.S. in a 21st Century World: Do we have what it takes? set for Feb. 17-19, 2012, and provide a millennium of background material for it.

The show, 'Past As Prologue? The Roman Empire from its Founding to the End - 1,000 yrs. in 100 Minutes', will take place in three venues this week:

• Wednesday, January 18, 7PM at the Unity College Centre for Performing Arts
• Friday, January 20, 7PM at the Rockport Opera House
• Sunday, January 22, 1PM at the University of Maine’s Hutchinson Center in Belfast

Tom DeMarco is the author of 12 books and a principal of The Atlantic Systems Guild, a technology think tank with offices in the United States, United Kingdom and Germany.  Mac Deford is a retired Foreign Service officer with service primarily in the Middle East.  He had a subsequent career with Merrill Lynch International, mostly in South America and Asia, and is a regular columnist with The Free Press.

No advanced registration is necessary, but donations are appreciated.

This event is presented by the Camden Conference and the Rockport Public Library.  The Rockport and Belfast shows are proudly sponsored by Wells Fargo Advisors.  For more information, call 236-1034 or visit www.camdenconference.org.
