Name: Robert Cowley Book Signing at Wakefield Books
Start: 2025-09-06T10:00:00-04:00

Local author Robert Cowley Book Signing, Saturday Sept 6, 10am to Noon at Wakefield Books. Cowley’s new book The Killing Season is an in-depth, authoritative account of the fall of 1914 on the Western Front and the First Battle of Ypres, a true turning point in World War I and in modern warfare. Cowley details the crucial decisions that determined the outcome of the Great War—which may have been decided by a single, extraordinary afternoon.
