SUMMARY:April/May Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Thanks to everyone who attended the last meeting to discuss River-Horse: A Journey Across America by William Least Heat-Moon\, and a special thanks to member Fred Bingham for leading it! \nOur book selection for April/May 2022 is a deep dive into environmental history from the formation of the U.S. Constitution to the national tragedy of Hurricane Katrina and water wars out West titled\, The Source: How Rivers Made America and America Remade Its Rivers by Doyle Martin \n“America has more than 250\,000 rivers\, coursing over more than 3 million miles and serving as integral trade routes\, borders\, passageways\, sewers\, and sinks. Over the years\, based on our shifting needs and values\, we have harnessed their power with water-wheels and dams\, straightened them for ships\, drained them with irrigation canals\, set them on fire\, and even attempted to restore them. This environmental history tells the story of America and its rivers\, from the U.S. Constitution’s roots in interstate river navigation\, the origins of the Army Corps of Engineers\, the discovery of gold in 1848\, and the construction of the Hoover Dam and the TVA during the New Deal\, to the failure of the levees in Hurricane Katrina and the water wars in the west. Along the way\, it explores how rivers have often been the source of arguments at the heart of the American experiment―over federalism\, sovereignty and property rights\, taxation\, regulation\, conservation\, and development.” \nOur next meeting is scheduled for Saturday\, May 28\, 2022 at 10:30AM outside at Pomegranate Books (Weather Permitting). \nCFRW Book Club members receive a 15% discount at Pomegranate Books (910) 452-1107.

SUMMARY:December/January Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Our next book selection is a true lock and dam story about Americans who live near the Mississippi\, Ohio\, and Missouri River titled\, Holding Back the River: The Struggle Against Nature On America’s Waterways by Tyler J. Kelley.! Copies will be available at Pomegranate Books for a 15% discount! \n \n\nAmerica’s infrastructure is old and underfunded. While our economy\, society\, and climate have changed\, our levees\, locks\, and dams have not. Yet to fix what’s wrong will require more than money. It will require an act of imagination. Holding Back the River brings us into the lives of the Americans who grapple with our mighty rivers and\, through their stories\, suggests solutions to some of the century’s greatest challenges. \n \n\n\n\n\nOur next meeting is scheduled for Saturday\, January 28\, 2023 at 10:30AM outside at Pomegranate Books (Weather Permitting).\n \n \nCFRW Book Club members receive a 15% discount at Pomegranate Books (910) 452-1107.\n\n\n
