Revolutionary Reads: 1776

Book pick: “1776” by David McCullough
Join our Revolutionary Book Club to celebrate America's 250th Anniversary in 2026. Dive into stories, histories, and ideas that shaped the nation. This book club will rotate between Groton Public, Mystic & Noank, and Bill Memorial Libraries.
America’s beloved and distinguished historian presents, in a book of breathtaking excitement, drama, and narrative force, the stirring story of the year of our nation’s birth, 1776, interweaving, on both sides of the Atlantic, the actions and decisions that led Great Britain to undertake a war against her rebellious colonial subjects and that placed America’s survival in the hands of George Washington.
Copies are available at the Groton Public Library; call or reserve online: wgpl.ent.sirsi.net/client/en_US/groton/search/results?qu=AUTHOR=mccullough, david &h=1
