The Pioneers: The Heroic Story of the Settlers Who Brought the American Ideal West by David McCullough is the September book for the History and Current Events Book Club. Join in person at the Civic Center Library in the Board Room or via Zoom at https://us02web.zoom.us/j/88607174362 on Sept. 19 at 7 p.m.

Book Summary: Popular historian McCullough uses his well-crafted writing style and thorough research to highlight the evolution of the ‘Ohio territory’ (now Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, Wisconsin) from late-18th-century settlement to well-regarded American cities (Marietta, Cincinnati) by the 1860s. He follows members of a few optimistic, well-connected families whose impact on the region spanned generations, admiringly portraying their efforts to create a new England on the frontier.
