Join us for the monthly meeting of The Archivists, Curious Owl Bookshop’s official History Book Club.
Whether you are drawn to ancient civilizations, revolutions, biographies, wars and peaces, local stories, forgotten voices, or the quiet details that reshape what we think we know, you will find fellow readers here who care about the past – and what it asks of us now.
There are no membership fees and no pressure. Simply read the month’s featured book and join us.
This month’s featured book:
The War Before Independence
1775-1776
by Derek W. Beck
Before the Declaration, there was a war already underway. Derek W. Beck’s The War Before Independence takes us into 1775-1776: Bunker Hill, Washington molding a raw Continental Army, and the desperate Canadian campaign that climaxed in the blizzard Battle of Quebec. Strategy, early conflict, and the fighting that set the stage for independence – come ready to talk the choices that turned rebellion into revolution.
Copies of The War Before Independence are available now at Curious Owl Bookshop – stop in, grab a copy, and read along with us before we meet on October 3.
