Guest author.

Dartmouth author Holly Fitzgerald will return to Southworth Library to present a slide show and talk about her book, "Ruthless River: Love and Survival by Raft on the Amazon’s Relentless Madre de Dios," on August 4 at 6 p.m.

In the book, Fitzgerald recounts the harrowing circumstances faced by her and her husband in 1973, while on a honeymoon trip around the world. When the plane they were in crash-landed, the two set out on a journey that would result in them struggling to stay alive. Pre-register for the program by calling (508) 999-0726. Copies of the book are available for a $15.00 donation to the Dartmouth Library Foundation. The Foundation will also provide a large, heavy-duty canvas book bag with each book.
