Past Pages Society: NRPL History Book Club
Love history — or just love a good story? Join the Past Pages Society, a monthly book club for anyone who loves history — or simply wants to understand it better. Each session features dynamic discussions on books exploring history, culture, politics, and untold stories.
Join us in November to discuss Ghosts of Cannae: Hannibal and the Darkest Hour of the Roman Republic, Robert L O’Connell’s brilliant account of the most apocalyptic battle in history and its consequences for the ancient world. Hannibal of Carthage’s astounding victory was brilliant, innovative - and utterly brutal. This disastrous moment in Rome’s history led ultimately to the republic’s resurgence but also to its turn to empire.
Come read, reflect, and join the conversation!
