Four 18th and early 19th century ships discovered in the past few years along the Alexandria waterfront are evidence of the City’s maritime history. Dr. Benjamin Skolnik’s research of the 1803-1804 logbook of the Schooner Enterprise, based in Alexandria, offers a glimpse into the world that these ships were once a part of. Follow the Enterprise on four voyages as it encounters bad weather, a leaky hull, yellow fever, and French privateers. Alexandria After Dark is a free event sponsored by the Friends of Alexandria Archaeology that brings together professional archaeologists and historians for informal lectures on topics relating to the rich archaeological heritage of Alexandria and the surrounding area.
