BOOK CLUB DISCUSSES JEFFERSON BIOGRAPHY NAPPANEE Read along with the Cover-to-Cover Book Club at the Nappanee Public Library. The Cover to Cover Book Club meets at the library on the second Sunday of each month. This month, the club will meet on from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 10 to discuss "Thomas Jefferson: the Art of Power." In this magnificent biography, Pulitzer Prize-winning author, Jon Meacham, brings vividly to life an extraordinary man and his remarkable times. "Thomas Jefferson: The Art of Power" gives the reader the story of Jefferson, the politician and president, a complex human being forever engaged in the wars of his era. Philosophers think; politicians maneuver. Jefferson's genius was that he was both and could do both, often simultaneously. Such is the art of power. For more information or to reserve a copy of the book, call the library at (574) 773-7919, or visit www.nappaneelibrary. org.
