In honor of Veterans Day, join us for a presentation on A Doctor's War
Join us for an evening with local author Peggy Ludwick to discuss her book A Doctor's War and the story of her father and local physician Lt. Col/Maj. Arthur L. Ludwick during First Friday, Nov. 7, at 6 PM.
A Doctor's War is one man's resolute journey through the minefields of love and war, as well as a daughter's discovery of the young man she never knew, before he became her father. As a Medical Officer on the frontlines of WWII, our last “good” war, Major Arthur L. Ludwick M.D. treated traumatized and wounded soldiers during the bloodiest battles of North Africa and Italy.
"Although Dr. Arthur L. Ludwick was a beloved family physician in Wenatchee for over 50 years, few people knew of his heroism on the frontlines of WWII," writes Peggy Ludwick.
Peggy will also share excerpts from A Daughter's Pilgrimage, a travel diary of her recent trips to North Africa and Italy to retrace and witness her father's routes and battlefields during WWII.
Signed books of A Doctor's War will be available for purchase. More information about A Doctor's War can be found at adoctorswar.com
The entire Museum is free and open to the public every First Friday of the month, from 4-8 PM.
