History Roundtable

Posted on August 12, 2017 by GPL

Do you have a thirst for knowledge? Are you looking for good conversation? Satisfy both those needs by attending the library’s History Roundtable which meets the 4th Thursday of the month at 6:30pm. Each month we discuss a new topic. All you need to do is come ready to summarize a non-fiction book, a documentary, or a podcast that pertains, no matter how thinly, to the topic. You’re guaranteed to learn something new about the subject and something new about how it relates to today’s world. Thus far we’ve discussed Russian History, the Interwar Period (1919-1938), and Scottish History. I read Bill Bryson’s One Summer: America, 1927 for the Interwar Period and was amazed how America today mirrors much of America in the 1920s.

Upcoming Topics:
August 24th – Favorite Founding Fathers
September 28th – The History of India
October 26th – Natural Disasters
