**REMINDER** This Saturday (3/19) at 10 AM the library will be hosting a book signing with author Harry Deitz, Jr.
His recent publication, “Our Father’s Journey: A Path Out of Poverty”, shares the life story of his father (Harry Deitz, Sr.) from his humble beginnings in Coal Township in the 1920s, through the financial hardships of the Great Depression, a period of military service as a young man, and later onto starting a family of his own. All the while, Mr. Deitz carved out a long and successful newspaper career that established him as a prominent member of his community which he remains today.
This account of one man’s life, the numerous challenges he faced along the way, and his steadfast commitment to improving his station in life is a testament to the power of hard work and determination.
The library is currently selling copies of the book for $16.99 (plus tax) at the circulation desk. Be sure to pick up your own personal copy and have your questions ready for the author on March 19th!
