The Arthur Lakes library is happy to announce the return of the Golden Town & Gown Book Club.

As we navigate the ever-changing climate of Covid-19, we are planning our first in-person book discussion of 2022. It will take place on March 30th from noon to 2 pm at the Arthur Lakes Library 1500 Illinois St, Golden, CO 80401 . We have the pleasure to read and discuss The Earth Beneath My Feet by Golden resident, author and photographer, Andrew Terrill.

The Earth Beneath My Feet is an inspiring adventure travel narrative that takes readers on a 7,000-mile hike into the heart of wilderness Europe. Described by Banff Mountain Book Festival award-winning author Jim Perrin as ‘a classic of outdoor literature in the making’, this book will appeal to anyone who has felt the powerful pull of wanderlust, heard the call of the wild, yearned for travel and adventure, or simply longed to spend time in nature.

This event will feature a Q&A discussion with Andrew to share stories, insights, and explain parts of the book that go beyond the text. Andrew – better known locally for his striking Golden photographs – will also give a short presentation featuring photographs from his epic hike.

This event is open to everyone! Including Mines’ students, employees, and Golden residents.

The library will be providing lunch, so bring your appetite! Attendance is limited to 80 people. To register, and for further details, please click the register link
