Garrettsville – The Book Discussion Club of the Garrettsville
branch of the Portage County District Library will meet on Tuesday
January 15, 2018, in the library meeting room at 5:00p.m.
The
month’s selection is Hero of the Empire: The Boer War, a Daring Escape,
and the Making of Winston Churchill by Candice Millard.
Churchill,
the man who would become Britain’s Prime Minister and self-appointed
Minister of Defense, was a reporter who was captured during the Boer War
in Africa. The former soldier and author planned a daring escape which
contributed to his larger-than-life war hero persona, an asset in the
political arena.
Personal copies of the book are available at the Reference desk.
The library is located at 10482 South Street, Garrettsville, OH 44231.?
