Just the Facts Book Club

This group meets the 4th Tuesday of each month at 5 PM for discussions on books of biography, history, nature, psychology and science.  This group is perfect for you if you are looking to increase your non-fiction reading library.  These books are challenging and very interesting to discuss in a group.

Please join us by reading the book ahead of the discussion evening and bring a pupu or beverage to share with the group.

January 24th meeting will be a book discussion on "The Tin Ticket".

The convict women who built a continent..."A moving and fascinating story." -Adam Hochschild, author of "King Leopold's Ghost"

"The Tin Ticket" takes readers to the dawn of the nineteenth century and into the lives of three women arrested and sent into suffering and slavery in Australia and Tasmania-where they overcame their fates unlike any women in the world. It also tells the tale of Elizabeth Gurney Fry, a Quaker reformer who touched all their lives. Ultimately, this is a story of women who, by sheer force of will, became the heart and soul of a new nation.
