The book selection for July 2023 is “The Book of Charlie” by David Von Drehle. Charlie lived a remarkably interesting life, living to 109. It is the story of how he managed a productive life. Early in his career, he made house calls and later, in his nineties, he went to Haiti to help after an earthquake. An inspiring story of a man determined to never give in or give up.
