This year’s book is Travels with George, by Nathanial Philbrick. 

Join us for a town wide reading of Travels with George, by Nathanial Philbrick. 

Travels with George is an account of his retracing Washington’s footsteps — and carriage tracks — accompanied by his wife, Melissa, and their Nova Scotia duck tolling retriever, Dora. The book is a hybrid: part history and part travelogue. 

We will be hosting a live online author talk with Nathaniel Philbrick here at the library on Wednesday Feb. 8, at 6:30pm. You can also sign up to attend the talk virtually at the library’s website https://hollistonlibrary.org/.

Additionally, we will have local historian Joanne Hulbert and friends talk about Nathaniel Philbrick, George Washington, and the local legends that made it into the book! In person at the Library Wednesday Feb. 22, at 2:30pm.
