Hi,
The book club moves to a new night due to our Adirondack program on Tuesday night. This Thursday they will be picking up the new book. They have one month to read it, then discuss it at the next meeting in July.
The new book is Nothing Like It in the World by Stephen E. Ambrose. It is about the men who built the transcontinental railroad from 1863 to 1869. It is about the investors who risked their buinesses and money; the enlightened politicians who understood its importance; the engineers and surveyors who risked, and lost, their lives; and the Irish and Chinese immigrants, the defeated Confederate soldiers, and the other laboreres who did the backbreaking and dangerous work on the tracks.
Order your book today! The book club is free and open to the public.
