# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Bestselling Historian Simon Winchester, “The Breath of the Gods: The History and Future of the Wind”
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 20 Nov, 2025 at 07:00 pm
- **Event Description**: What is going on with our atmosphere? Headlines are filled with news of devastating hurricanes, tornadoes, and fires. In 2022, a report was released by atmospheric scientists, warning that winds are expected to steadily strengthen in power and frequency in the years ahead. While this prediction worried the insurance industry and governmental leaders, the energy industry received it with unbridled enthusiasm, seeing rising wind strength as an unalloyed boon for humankind and a vital source of clean power. Between these two poles—wind as a malevolent force, and wind as savior of our planet—lies a world of fascination, history, and science, which bestselling historian Simon Winchester explores with curiosity and vigor.

Simon Winchester will be in conversation with Mikall Venso, Curator - Soldiers Memorial Military Museum.

Presented in Partnership with the Missouri Historical Society
