Get Booked with Authors Marshall Adair and Carole Rogers at Gilford Library

GILFORD — This coming week, the Gilford Public Library will host two authors on separate visits to discuss their latest books. On Tuesday, July 15th at 6:30 pm, author and diplomat Marshall Adair will discuss his book, Lessons from a Diplomatic Life: Watching Flowers from Horseback. Drawing on his 35 year career as a third-generation diplomat and experiences with the American Foreign Service, Marshall Adair's book provides readers with a unique combination of autobiography, travelogue, and exposé on the history and politics of US Foreign Affairs.

The second presentation of the week, Get Booked with Author Carole Rodgers, will be on Thursday, July 17th at 6:30 pm. Carole will discuss her book Hidden Lives: My Three Grandmothers. Hidden Lives covers the compelling true stories of three New York City immigrant families – one Jewish, one German, and one Italian – set in three tenement neighborhoods – the lower east side, the south Bronx and hell's kitchen – during the first decades of the twentieth century. Both presentations are free and open to the public.
