We had Frederick Stonehouse for three programs during our Big Read Grant this year. He was amazing and can speak to all ages. We had him talk about his book, Haunted Lakes. I highly recommend him.

Maritime historian James Spurr did a great job for us on the Edmund Fitzgerald shipwreck. ( He’s also done war of 1812 in the Great Lakes).
