Hildene Reads! Eager: The Surprising, Secret Life of Beavers and Why They Matter, by Ben Goldfarb

Join Hildene staff for a discussion of PEN Award winner Eager: The Surprising, Secret Life of Beavers and Why They Matter, by Ben Goldfarb, a powerful story of how one of the world’s most influential species can help us fight drought, flooding, wildfire, extinction, and climate change — and how we can learn to coexist with our fellow travelers on this planet. “A marvelously humor-laced page-turner about the science of semi-aquatic rodents… Goldfarb has built a masterpiece of a treatise on the natural world.” — The Washington Post.

The discussion is FREE and will be held from 7:00 to 8:30 pm via Microsoft Teams. For more information and to register, contact Stephanie at (802) 367-7960 or c3RlcGhhbmllIHwgaGlsZGVuZSAhIG9yZw==.
