UPCOMING EVENTS
TUESDAY, FEB 11: THE SUN IS A COMPASS: MY 4,000-MILE JOURNEY INTO THE ALASKAN WILDS 5:30 pm, Winthrop Library
Alaskan author Caroline Van Hemert presents The Sun Is a Compass, which chronicles her 4,000-mile human-powered expedition from the Pacific rainforest to the Arctic coast. For six months, Caroline and her husband, Pat, crossed some of the most remote and rugged places left on earth. A unique blend of science, adventure, and personal narrative, the book explores the bounds of the human body and the tenuousness of life in the company of creatures whose daily survival is nothing short of miraculous.
