Friends and Foundation of the Princeton Public Library’s Annual Book Lover’s Luncheon
Join the Friends and Foundation of the Princeton Public Library on April 28 from 12 to 2 p.m. for the annual Book Lover’s Luncheon, featuring author, historian, and journalist Lynne Olson. This year’s event will be held at the Nassau Inn.
Olson is the New York Times best-selling author of Madame Fourcade’s Secret War, Last Hope Island, Those Angry Days, and Citizens of London. She has been a consulting historian for the National WWII Museum in New Orleans and the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C.
She will be in conversation with Dr. Will Storrar, director of the Center of Theological Inquiry, and will discuss her 2023 release Empress of the Nile. This latest book, which was released in February, charts the extraordinary story of the intrepid French archaeologist who led the international effort to save ancient Egyptian temples from the floodwaters of the Aswan Dam. New York Times best-selling author Kati Marton describes Empress of the Nile as a “reminder that one unstoppable woman can bend history to her will.”
