Recently on "Two Rivers, 30 Minutes," we spoke with an old friend of Tube City Almanac, Bob Messner, founder of the Braddock's Battlefield History Center in North Braddock.

Located at the site of one of the pivotal battles of the French and Indian War, the Braddock's Battlefield center holds more than 250 artifacts and 50 works of art that help tell the story of the native American warriors and French soldiers who fought against British soldiers and colonists for control of the Pittsburgh region in the 1750s, long before the war of American independence.
