It's a Matter of Timing
Don't forget to set your clocks ahead on Sunday as Daylight Savings Time begins. We may lose an hour, but that means we stay out later, so this Sunday, the 9th, while you're out enjoying the day, join us here at 5:30 p.m. for the book tour launch of In Nixon's Web: A Year in the Crosshairs of Watergate. Written by L. Patrick Gray III and co-authored by his son, Ed Gray, the book is considered to be the last untold story of Watergate. Ed Gray will be our featured speaker on Sunday.
Ed Gray
L. Patrick Gray III, was Acting Director of the FBI at the height of the Watergate Scandal and this is his memoir. He did not live to see his book published, but his son Ed, who'd worked closely with him, completed the book and saw it through to publication. It's a fascinating book and promises to be a fabulous event, which will be followed by a book signing and reception. You won't want to miss it! Click here for more information.
Also, speaking of timing, don't forget that tomorrow night (Thursday, March 6th at 7 p.m.), author Lee Siegel will be here to talk about his new book, Against the Machine: Being Human in the Age of the Electronic Mob. This is a provocative and gripping book -- a piercing critique that calls for the reexamination of the role of technology in our lives. Click here for more information.

A book signing will follow the presentation and there will be a drawing for prizes. Refreshments will also be served.
