Description
In 1929, in the blue-collar city of Portsmouth, Ohio, a company built a swimming pool the size of a football field; named Dreamland, it became the vital center of the community. Now, addiction has devastated Portsmouth, as it has hundreds of small rural towns and suburbs across America--addiction like no other the country has ever faced. How that happened is the riveting story of Dreamland.—Amazon.com. Discussion leader: Glenda Carbaugh, Friends of the Library member.
Attendees are welcome to bring a brown bag lunch. Refreshments will be served.
Friends of the Library book discussions are free and open to all CSU faculty, staff, and students and the general public.
