Cheshire Democrats Book Club

For October, we are reading The Passionate Sage: The Character and Legacy of John Adams, by Joseph Ellis. According to one reviewer, "Adams has much to teach modern America". The Passionate Sage has been recommended as an excellent follow-up to this month's book. I look forward to reading it. Our next meeting will be on Wednesday, October 17th, at 6:30 PM at the Keene Public Library.
