I'll bet most everyone's read Dave Rasdal's Ramblin' column in the Gazette at least a few times. Doesn't he write compelling personal interest profiles? Do you know he has compiled a bunch of his columns into a new book? The book came out this past November, and on Saturday, January 14, Dave will be at the Marion Library to talk about it. The book is called Ramblin': Reflections of Hidden Iowa and Dave will tell everyone about how it came to be: the process from inception to publication, including how the columns were selected for inclusion. He'll be happy to answer your questions, and he will have books available to purchase (and sign!). Dave's program is free -- we at the library hope you will join us for an afternoon with Dave Rasdal, beginning at 2 p.m. Everyone is welcome!
