Program Description

Event Details

Join us for a group book discussion in one of Rock Island's most beautiful parks, Longview Park! This month's selection is The Wager: A Tale of Shipwreck, Mutiny and Murder by David Grann, author of Killers of the Flower Moon. You can obtain a physical copy through our library system here or as an eBook or eAudiobook via our digital library at Libby.

The group meets at the historic lion statues near the southeast corner of the park (location marked in attached map). Don't forget to bring your own chair or blanket to sit on! If poor weather is expected, our rain location is the Watts-Midtown Library at 2715 30th St., Rock Island, IL.
