When Alice and Henry Ferguson bought Hard Bargain Farm in 1922, little did they imagine that it would become a place where children from the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area would come to learn about the environment, agriculture and history. The purchase of Hard Bargain Farm changed the course of Alice’s life as she transformed it into a unique, remarkable center that is still alive with the mark of her creative touch.

Now a nonprofit educational organization devoted to the principles and ideals of its founders, the modern Society maintains its headquarters, library, and museum at Anderson House in Washington, D.C. The Society's library and museum collections document and illuminate the people and events of the American Revolution, the art of war in the eighteenth century, the history of the Society of the Cincinnati, and Anderson House and its occupants. Resource <a href="http://www.societyofthecincinnati.org/collections/library/about">Library:</a> The Society of the Cincinnati library collects, preserves, and makes available for research printed and manuscript materials relating to the military and naval history of the eighteenth century, with a particular concentration on the people and events of the American Revolution. The Robert Charles Lawrence Fergusson Collection specializes in works relating to the art of war in the period, providing context for the achievement of the volunteer American forces and their French allies in securing the independence of the United States. Complementing the library's extensive rare book collection are historical manuscripts, maps, graphic arts, and the archives of the Society of the Cincinnati. In addition, a modern reference collection supports research on the American revolutionary period and the history of the Society of the Cincinnati and its members; and a collection of nineteenth- and twentieth-century children's literature and fiction reveal popular perceptions of the American Revolution through time.

The goal of this work is to stabilize the collections items and return them as much as possible to their original condition and appearance, so they may continue to be made accessible for research, exhibition, and other purposes. The Society has called upon the services of top conservators in the field for projects that range from books and manuscripts to artworks, artifacts, and the historic fabric of Anderson House. <a href="http://www.societyofthecincinnati.org/anderson_house/history">Anderson House:</a> To the Andersons, their Washington home represented the culmination of what America's founders, including George Washington, hoped their capital city would become—a grand, modern city to rival European capitals, but with a patriotic identity and a sense of history that would make it distinctly American. When Larz Anderson died in 1937 with no children, his widow oversaw the gift of Anderson House and its contents to the Society of the Cincinatti, of which Larz had been a devoted member. Since 1939, this National Historic Landmark has been open to the public as a historic house museum where the Society has continued the traditions of collecting, entertaining, and patriotic service that the Andersons began one hundred years ago.
