This month’s Book Club pick is The Demon of Unrest: A Saga of Hubris, Heartbreak, and Heroism at the Dawn of the Civil War by Erik Larson. The NYT bestselling author recounts the history of the five months between Lincoln’s election and the beginning of the Civil War, a chaotic period in our nation’s history, marked by inflamed egos, tragic miscommunications, and craven ambitions.
Copies of the book are available at the circulation desk of Honokaa Library. All books read are chosen by members of the group.
