The Friends of the Montague Library invite you to join us for another Michigan Notable Author book talk: Our next Book Talk is on Wednesday (July 11). Frank Boles will discuss his 2018 Michigan Notable Book Sailing into History: Great Lakes Bulk Carriers of the Twentieth Century and the Crews Who Sailed Them. Get a glimpse of “laker” life. Stories about the engineers who were responsible for keeping the vessels in tip-top condition, the first women captains, and the importance of a good galley crew (that is the kitchen staff to land-lubbers) abound in this book. Mr. Boles will focus on the life of the crew, both their job responsibilities and how they spend their free time aboard the ship. The event will start at 7:00pm in lower level City Council Chambers.The 2018 Book Talk series is sponsored by Bishop Farms, Boardwell Mechanical Services, CORE Realty, HarborLight Credit Union, MasterTag, Montague-Whitehall Rotary Club, Shelby State Bank, White Lake Beacon, and White Swan Inn. The Book Nook and Java Shop is also supporting the event by handling book sales for some of the authors. Hope to see you there,Carol WolfePresidentFriends of the Montague LibraryMontague Branch of the Muskegon Area District Library
