Forbes House Museum hosted a talk and book signing with Boston Globe photographer Bill Brett, who promoted his new book, Boston Irish: Photography by Bill Brett.
The book signing included informal tours of the Forbes House Museum with special focus on the mansion's connection to Boston Irish history. The museum exhibited its silver salver, a gift given to Captain Robert Bennet Forbes from the citizens of Cork, Ireland, in gratitude for his 1847 humanitarian voyage during the height of the Great Famine.
