Open Afternoon Book Club:\u00a0One Summer: America, 1927\u00a0by Bill Bryson<\/p>\n

Described as \u201ca clever tale of America\u2019s coming of age,\u201d\u00a0the summer of 1927 began with Charles Lindbergh crossing the Atlantic and Babe Ruth closing in on the home run record. In Newark, New Jersey, Alvin \u201cShipwreck\u201d Kelly sat atop a flagpole for twelve days, and in Chicago, the gangster Al Capone was tightening his grip on bootlegging. The first true \u201ctalking picture,\u201d Al Jolson\u2019s\u00a0The Jazz Singer, was filmed, forever changing the motion picture industry.
\nAll this and much, much more transpired in the year Americans attempted and accomplished outsized things\u2014and when the twentieth century truly became the American century.\u00a0One Summer\u00a0transforms it all into narrative nonfiction of the highest order.\u00a0(Amazon.com)<\/p>\n

Open Evening Book Club:\u00a0River of Doubt: Theodore Roosevelt\u2019s Darkest Journey\u00a0by Candace Millard<\/p>\n

At once an incredible adventure narrative and a penetrating biographical portrait,\u00a0The River of Doubt\u00a0is the true story of Theodore Roosevelt\u2019s exploration of one of the most dangerous rivers on earth.<\/p>\n

After his humiliating election defeat in 1912, Roosevelt set his sights on the most punishing physical challenge he could find, the first descent of an unmapped, rapids-choked tributary of the Amazon.\u00a0 Along the way, he and his men faced an unbelievable series of hardships\u2014losing their canoes and supplies to punishing whitewater rapids, enduring starvation, Indians armed with poison-tipped arrows, disease, drowning, and a murder within their own ranks.<\/p>\n

From the soaring beauty of the Amazon rain forest to the darkest night of Theodore Roosevelt\u2019s life,\u00a0The River of Doubt\u00a0is Candice Millard\u2019s dazzling debut.\u00a0(Amazon.com)<\/p>\n

The Open Book Clubs are free and open to the public.\u00a0 Books are available at the circulation desk and all are welcome.<\/p>\n
