Book Club

Now that we are moving into the Green Phase, The St. Andrew’s Book Club is back on. As a result of the whole COVID-19 Pandemic, the book club is going to read John Berry’s 2005 nonfiction work, The Great Influenza – The Story of the Deadliest Pandemic in History – which has made a commercial resurgence and has been topping the best sellers charts since the COVID-19 Pandemic began. This nonfiction work details the 1918 Spanish Influenza outbreak in the United States and the lessons learned from it. The book is very lengthy (almost 600 pages.)
We are planning to skip the first to chapters of detailed medical history dating back to ancient times and begin with Chapter 3. Please note we are still taking an extra month to read this, so our next meeting will be in July. At this time, we have permission and plan to meet in the library at St. Andrew’s. If the situation changes between now and July 28, we will choose an alternate location or method or meeting.
