Beyond the Book @ the Whaling Museum

The library co-sponsors this unique discussion group. This month's selection is The Perfect Storm by Sebastian Junger. Set sail with the crew of the Andrea Gail on their last, fateful voyage during the No Name Storm of October, 1991.  Discover how Long Island was affected by this storm as well as what the changing climate means for future hurricane seasons.  Then, take a close look at the incredible, and often dangerous history of the North Atlantic swordfishing industry as you examine artifacts from the museum collection up close. 

Print copies of the book will be available at the Circulation Desk. The title is also in our digital collection.

The discussion will be held at the Cold Spring Harbor Whaling Museum, 279 Main Street.
