SPL-Books and Beyond
Samuels Public Library invites you to join us for the Books & Beyond Book Club on Wednesday, November 15th at 10:00am, where Unbroken: a World War II Story of Survival, Resilience, and Redemption by Laura Hillenbrand will be discussed. On a May afternoon in 1943, an Army Air Forces bomber crashed into the Pacific Ocean and disappeared, leaving only a spray of debris and a slick of oil, gasoline, and blood. Then, on the ocean surface, a face appeared. It was that of a young lieutenant, the plane’s bombardier, who was struggling to a life raft and pulling himself aboard. So began one of the most extraordinary odysseys of the Second World War.
