THINK GREEN FOR SPRING

Have you seen our current display in the case outside the Bullis Room? If you haven't and you're trying to locate it, just look for green. Green book covers, that is. Choosing books by their covers results in a variety of subjects: gardening, travel, biography, and finance. Here are some of the books on display that we recommend you consider for your Spring reading:

The Life of Daniel Boone - The Pioneer of Kentucky, A Biography, by Channing Hill (published in 1884)

Ten Years in Wall Street or, Revelation of Inside Life and Experience on 'Change, by William Worthington Fowler (published in 1870)

The Garden's Story, by George H. Ellwanger (published in 1889)

A Voyage in the "Sunbeam," Our Home on The Ocean for Eleven Months, by Mrs. Brassey (published 1881)

You can access all of these books online. Or if you'd like to take a look at the real thing, please stop by the Bullis Room.
