Join us on Thursday, June 25 at 7:00 PM for a special evening with author Andrew Moore, presenting his new book: "The Beasts of the East: The Fall and Rise of America's Eastern Wilderness"​​
Before skyscrapers and suburbs, eastern America was home to elk, bison, wolves, and cougars. Industrialization nearly wiped them out — but they're making a comeback. Bison on Illinois prairies. Red wolves in North Carolina marshes. Thousands of elk in Kentucky coal country. Andrew Moore takes us on the journey to understand how, and what it means for the future of eastern ecosystems.​​

Moore is also the author of Pawpaw: In Search of America's Forgotten Fruit (a James Beard Foundation Book Award finalist), and his writing has appeared in The Washington Post, The New York Times, The Atlantic, and more.​​
