Nonfiction Book Discussion- Death and Life of the Great Lakes

The Great Lakes hold 20% of the world's fresh water and provides sustenance, work, and recreation for tens of millions of Americans. But they are far from pristine and their problems are spreading across the continent. The Death and Life of the Great Lakes is Dan Egan's readable portrait of an ecological catastrophe happening right before our eyes. He blends the epic history of the lakes with an examination of the perils they face and the ways that we can restore and preserve them for generations to come...if we choose to. Read it and come talk about it on Monday, August 24, 2026, from 6:30 p.m. To 7:30 p.m. In the Solarium. Books are available at the library.
