Stratford Mail

Finally, a history podcast for folks on the go & in the know. Who can spare an hour these days? Give us 20 minutes, and we'll inform and entertain you! 

From Stratford Hall Historic Preserve in Westmoreland County, Virginia, join Director of Research Dr. Gordon Blaine Steffey as he reads over the shoulder of letter-writers of yesteryear. 

What to expect? Once a month we feature an historical letter from a onetime resident, associate, ally, or friend of Stratford Hall. Whether the topic is wine, war in the colonies, ghosts, or fanciful hats, you'll learn what life on the ground looked like from those who lived the moments that make up our difficult and beloved past. And maybe you'll discover something about your present in our past! If you don't have more than 20 minutes, and you love history, discover Stratford Mail. And share it with your friends!
