The Greenfield Public Library, in collaboration with The Griswold Memorial Library and Montague Public Library, welcomes Kostya Kennedy on Monday, April 7 at 6:00 pm, celebrating the release of his new book The Ride: Paul Revere and the night that saved America.

Kennedy’s “The Ride”, called “a skillful separation of truth, legend, and what lies between in a canonical American story (Kirkus Reviews)”, helps mark the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere’s infamous ride warning Massachusetts colonists that the British were coming.

Kostya Kennedy is Editor in Chief of Premium Publishing at Dotdash Meredith, and has written for numerous outlets including The New York Times, Time, FiveThirtyEight.com and The New Yorker. His best selling and award winning books include True: The Four Seasons of Jackie Robinson, 56: Joe DiMaggio and the Last Magic Number in Sports, and Pete Rose: An American Dilemma.

This program, generously sponsored by the Friends of the Greenfield Public Library, The Griswold Memorial Library, and Montague Public Library, is free and open to everyone in our community.
